The other night Evan and I watched "The Elf on the Shelf" on TV. I had being hearing a lot about it lately and was really interested in the concept. For those who are not familiar, Sanata sends a scout elf to the homes of all the boys and girls to keep an eye on them. He reports back to Santa each night telling him if their child(ren) has been naughty or nice. Each morning he flys back to the home and lands in a different spot. The children are not allowed to touch the elf, if they do then the elf will lose his/her magic.
I decided I really wanted to do this with Evan. Last week our elf, Jingles, made his first appearance and made us a delicious North Pole breakfast.

| Evan is checking everything out, and pretty amazed at all the goodies we were having for breakfast. |
 |
| Jingles brough Evan an ornament for the tree which he was pretty excited about. |
 |
| The snow covered donuts were a big hit! |
 |
| "Really? I can have another?" |
 |
| "Hey! Where'd they all go?" |
We had so much fun at breakfast. So far we have found Jingles perched upon our mistletoe, sitting in our tree, and yesterday he brought Evan a Christmas book. I hope Jingles can find lots of fun places to watch from.
Our elf is named Tom. G is loving finding him every morning, too!
