So Big, So Proud!

For a while now Jackson has been able to write the letter J and tell us he was "writing" his name.

We always play along and smile even though there are never any other letters after the J.

Tonight, as Jackson was was "writing his name" I watched him actually write the rest of the letters!

They may not be in the right order- but the letters are there! I was one proud Momma and called Justin to come look! Jackson then asked us, "you guys so proud, Mom?". Yes, we are!

This one is a keeper!

JAC on the lower level, NOSK on the top row. (perhaps we will work on the order next.)

Our Elf is Photogenic!


Our Elf, Smurf, is photogenic...or at least he thinks so.

In fact, he thinks he takes such a good photograph that he changed all our family photos to photos of himself! Silly little Elf! :)

P.S. This is soooo much fun!

Our Elf, "Smurf," has Arrived!





Santa delivered a special delivery to our house while we were out of town this past weekend. Our very own, Elf on the Shelf.

Jackson had so much "finding" him tonight and we read the book as a family. Of course, the book made me tear up. I can't wait to share this tradition with Justin and Jackson each year. Our elf was officially named "Smurf". Welcome to our family, Smurf!

Jackson made sure to tell Smurf what he wanted him to tell Santa tonight when he returns to the North Pole. His list was as follows:

"Tell Santa I want a Volleyball, The Hippo Game, and a Drum....and tell him I am a very good boy."

Can't wait to "find" Smurf and what he's been up to....Hmmmm (This Mommy needs to get creative...)
