So most of you have probably heard of "Elf on the Shelf". If not, let me explain... It is a elf that you can buy and I am pretty sure that it comes with a book, anyway he moves from place to place in the house and keeps watch on the kiddos to make sure that they stay on Santa's "good" list! I had heard of this and thought it was a great idea. Today when I went to Mom's tea room, I saw this little guy and thought he was just so cute! Mom agreed that he would make the perfect addition to our family around the holidays so ... I brought him home and named him "Piper". I explained this to Connor and how he had better be a good boy so Santa would bring him lots of goodies because Piper would be watching to give Santa a full report! He pointed to him and now calls him "Diaper". Ha! Oh well, it is pretty close. I am pretty sure that this will be something to laugh out for years to come. Brad thinks that Piper is a bit scary and is not too sure about the concept, but I love it! I think this will be a great tradition to start! Here he is on the entry way table...
Then he moved to the mantle, since Connor usually spends most of his time in here. Doesnt he look so real?!

I think I have to agree with Brad, he's kinda creepy looking!!! he looks SOOO real....like a little man just sitting there!! I love the concept though...I think i might have to get one and start that when Isaiah gets older!
Yeah...it does look a little tooo real. Not sure what to think??? Hey...but if it works then... Yeah! But...still not sure if he will be visiting my house :0)!
He is scary! Poor Connor ha ha!
Well, just hide the little guy when we come to visit. He looks too real.
Aww...I think that is a great idea. I like that you made it your own instead of buying the same elf everybody else has. We did look at those elf of the shelf the other day. I think we might start it next year. Anything to make them more aware of their actions! :)
Ok, that is almost a little scary. But, if it works, I will buy one for each room in our house! ha!
