Sprinkle the Elf.....days 3 and 4

On Thursday November 29th we woke up to find Sprinkle playing with one of our Christmas puppies that rocks back and forth when you push his ear.....maybe Sprinkle is thinking about joining the rodeo come December 25th????

This morning Sprinkle was all bundled up inside a kleenex box in our guest bathroom.  Apparently Sprinkle caught a chill during his travels to and from the North Pole last night :)

Meet our Elf on the Shelf....Day 1

Last night I read our brand new Elf on the Shelf book to the kids and introduced them to our elf.  I let Zane pick his name and he FINALLY made a decision....Sprinkle.

How or why he came up with that I have no idea, but does any parent really understand what goes on in a 5 year old's brain---nope!!!

After reading the book and learning the rules that Elves must follow we placed Sprinkle on our mantle and were anxious to see where he would be when we got up this morning.

When Zane woke up he came downstairs and sat on the couch like he does every morning and then about 10 seconds later I heard, "Mom Sprinkle is gone!!!" So he started his search to find our missing elf.

This is where we found him this morning, Tuesday November 27th.  During the night Sprinkle must have found our magnetic letters and decided to work on his letter sound recognition and then spell out his name on our fridge :)  

 

 
I wonder where we might find Sprinkle tomorrow morning????
