Mr. Elf had arrived while we were in North Carolina for Thanksgiving. We found him on the kitchen table when we walked in on Sunday night.
On Monday morning we found Mr. Elf putting out a fire in our fireplace with the help of some the boys' toys. We think Mr. Elf liked how cold the house was while we were gone (we turned the heat down really low) and didn't like that it was so warm now.
I was still super sick on Monday and hadn't cleaned up all the arts and crafts supplies the boys had gotten out before I went to bed. Mr. Elf got ahold of the pipe cleaners and made a ladder to climb our reindeer!
Mr. Elf got mischievous and on Wednesday we found the toilet in the half bath wrapped in wrapping paper!!!
Carter had built some things with Legos on Wednesday night. He went and told Mr. Elf before he went to bed to not mess them up. Apparently some of the Lego guys wanted to make sure Mr. Elf didn't mess with Carter's stuff and tied him down!
This morning we found that Mr. Elf had created a "North Pole Carnival" last night complete with a ring toss, can knock down, and fishing game!
Carter was scared of Mr. Elf at first but he's gotten braver and looks for him in the morning without much fear (I still have to be right next to him). Rylan doesn't want to come downstairs until Carter is up so that Carter finds the elf first. Carter has been getting up earlier than normal this week so that's been working for Rylan but we'll see how that goes next week.
