Emerson 2012

This year we got an Elf on the Shelf for Natalie.  We read the book on November 30th (Andy's birthday), she named him {Emerson} and the fun began!
He brought Natalie and Olivia matching pajamas.  Which is a hard job!
Admiring our yet to be decorated tree in the best seat in the house. 
Natalie said it would be funny if Dobbins (her rocking horse) had lights on him...So Emerson decorated him but got stuck in the lights! 
Couldn't stand our bare tree anymore so he did something about it...
Natalie spent the night at Grandmama's house and guess who found her AND drank all the milk!
We read the Nutcracker and Emerson loved it so much that he found a Nutcracker in our garage and hung out with it all night!
Wooing Belle with his reading skills!  Oh yea!
Taking a rest on the windowsill.
Taking a marshmallow bubble bath.
Don't mess with the heat...It's COLD!
Poured himself a bowl of cereal and wrote Natalie's name with some.
Brought Natalie Llama Llama Holiday Drama- a book she had been talking about for days!
Natalie had a splinter the night before and had to use a band aid- Emerson wanted to join in the fun...
We received a Christmas package in the mail and Emerson thought the peanuts were snow!
Hiding in the treasure box trying to sneak some treats...
Natalie loves headbands and clippies.  Emerson was curious...
Natalie loves forts so Emerson built one out of Livi's building blocks.
A little late night karaoke with some flashing lights!
Trying to sneak some candy while drinking syrup.
Trying to play hide and seek- but Nat's too smart for him!
Went for a boat ride in our sink.  We used a dissolving bath color tablet to make the water blue.
Emerson has groupies!
Got stuck in our tree!
Making sure he was noticed.  This was his last night.  He wrote a note to Natalie:
Dear Natalie,
I had so much fun watching over you!  I can't wait to see what Sanat brings you!  Happy early birthday!  Have a great year!  I love you!
Love,
Emerson
She was sad to see him leave but understands that he'll be back on Daddy's birthday.  I loved hearing about her favorite place she found him or when she would tell other people about where he was that day- she would get such a case of the giggles!
