Last weekend our Elf, Magglio came to our house. He comes when the Christmas decorations are put up- we think it's because the decorations make him feel a little more at home. ; ) I saw the cutest idea for a breakfast here and knew that I had to do a version of it. Her breakfast was adorable and I LOVED her letters, (googly eyes?!? LOVE!) so of course I had to steal borrow the idea. Here was our "North Pole Breakfast"
Hannah loved it and was super excited that Magglio brought them their very own snow globes that they could touch as much as they wanted. (because there is no touching Mommy's)He also brought some coloring books, stampers, and stickers and little reindeer notebooks to put their stickers in. (David had his eyes closed in EVERY shot I got, so no pictures of my little man, but he was very excited). This was a really fun way to welcome Magglio, and I think it will become a fun tradition.
Magglio has been up to some new tricks this year. The last 2 years he has just moved around from spot to spot, but this year (thank you pinterest) he is stepping out of his shell. One night he dyed the milk his favorite color...
Hannah thought this was great and loved it even more when we got home later in the day and he had moved out of the fridge (too cold) and onto his favorite spot at the top of the tree.
Last night he had a little tea with Woody and Heidi:
They both thought this was fun, and Hannah was especially excited because he used her "good dishes" that are put away and only brought down when David isn't around. Magglio doesn't do something this elaborate every night, but he has a few fun things planned that he will do every few nights. What about you? Do you have an elf that visits your house?
Fun, fun, fun. That elf has really stepped it up this year! I guess he likes it at your house. haha

Our elf, Bobby Boy came to visit again last Sunday. It's always fun seeing the kids find him each day, even though they are both old enough now to know that I'm the one hiding him. They still get excited! I like your fridge idea, and that might be where he turns up tomorrow! Did your kids come up with Magglio's name?

Alyssa, we actually named him. He showed up when Hannah was at the age that she wanted to name everything "Hannah" so we called him Magglio to avoid confusion from all of the other dolls/ stuffed animals that were named Hannah and it just stuck. ; )
