Taking Care of Business

When Sophie sleeps in, her elf Wy Wy has to pick up some of the slack. Here he is feeding her baby this morning. 

And sometimes he likes to draw pictures while he is waiting for Sophie to wake up.

Wy Wy's Adventures Continue

The Elf on the Shelf has been a big hit around here. I'm not too worried about the rules this year, I let Sophie touch and move Wy Wy if she wants to. I'm not even sure she understands the concept of the elf watching over her and reporting to Santa every night. She does love the morning ritual of looking for him and seems entertained by his new spots each day so I'll consider it a success! 

Enjoying some of her favorite cutie clemintines

Relaxing in a bath of marshmallows by the fire

She ate about 15 mini marshmallows before I finally had to pry the bowl out of her little hands!

Tea for Two

Sophie and Wy Wy enjoyed a tea party together this morning.

Wy Wy Has a Sweet Tooth

Sophie found him trying to snag some of the Mickey Mouse lollipops this morning.

Catching Up With Our Elf

We've had a busy few days but that doesn't mean our little elf Wy Wy hasn't still been up to his usual shenanigans. Here are a few of his latest hiding spots.

"That's My Nilk, Wy Wy!"

"Wy Wy Like My Pincesses!"

Breakfast for Wy Wy

Sophie discovered Wy Wy trying to help himself to some cereal in the pantry this morning!

Wy Wy Watches TV

This morning, Sophie slept in and woke up to find that Wy Wy had already turned on the Mickey Mouse and was watching cartoons!

Meet Our Elf, Wy Wy!

This year we are starting the Elf on the Shelf tradition in our household. Sophie opened her elf on Sunday and we read a book all about him. She has decided to name him Wy Wy (presumably after her good friend Wyatt.) Each night, Wy Wy will head back to the North Pole to report to Santa Claus and then come back in the morning to keep an eye on Sophie. She might be a little young still for this concept, but I think she will at least enjoy looking for him each morning. I'm already compiling a little list in my head of all the silly hiding positions and elfkin trouble that Wy Wy can get himself into! This morning, Wy Wy decided to scale the Christmas tree.
