Sprinkles the Elf: Day 3

Sprinkles must be working her magic because the girls have been on their best behavior! When I picked Reese up from school yesterday her teacher took the time to tell me Reese had a "great day, ate her lunch, listened, was the best at coloring and got a super star sticker on the board"! Emma & Scarlett also ate there lunches (not surprising) and had a great day!

All I heard on the way home was "Mommy, Sprinkles hung her own stocking from Santa! Let me show you Mommy!"

Last night I asked Reese, "Where do you think Sprinkles will land tomorrow morning?" She said "I think somewhere high so Emma can't touch her." What a big sister she is worrying about Emma touching Sprinkles and making her lose her magic! I have to give Emma praise though for she has followed the "no touch" rule perfectly!

Guess where Sprinkles landed this morning?! 

(I was able to snap this pic very late last night before I went to bed)

Zip Line

Right before the girls got up

The girls immediately went looking at her old hiding spot (watch Emma as she finds her!)...

The girls were dressed for Christmas pictures at school...

Sprinkles the Elf: Day 2

Last night Sprinkles flew to the North Pole and told Santa that the girls ate all their dinner and that they were very sweet to each other! This morning Sprinkles brought her own stocking from the North Pole made by Mrs. Claus herself!!

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care

Sprinkles the Elf: Day 1

Last night Sprinkles got out of her box and flew to the North Pole to tell Santa that the girls named her "Sprinkles" and that Reese, Emma, & Scarlett ate all their dinner! She flew back to our home and landed next to the tree and Santa pictures bearing gifts!!!

They were very careful not to touch her

I LOVE all this Christmas spirit!!!

Special Delivery!

Today the girls got a very special delivery!!!

"Ding Dong"

We welcomed our very own scout elf into our family! The girls named her Sprinkles!!!

Reese didn't waste any time putting her requests for Santa!

Toddler Friendly Thanksgiving Treat For Daycare

I love being able to have the girls take little holiday treats to their friends at daycare! Tomorrow is their Thanksgiving Feast since some will be missing next week due to the actual holiday.

Cornucopias

Original idea with printable tags here.

There are 24 friends total so I bought 4 movie theater boxes of Runts for $0.97ea (buy 3 get 1 free) at HEB. I was able to make 1 box spread between 6 snack bags. I did buy 2 (7.5oz) bags of Bugles but only used one.

P.S. And for anyone as "sheltered" as myself the Bugles are on the chip isle... NOT the cereal isle (which I walked 3x).

Happy Copying!!!
