The Elves on Every Shelf!

I can here it now.. in houses all across the world, the children are running a muck and all I can envision are tons of children screaming out, "It's Timeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"


You know what I mean. For those who love to keep the traditions going for the minis who want nothing but pure joy and unadulterated innocence during this time, it's time for the elves!


Elf on the Shelf

It is December 1st (well 2nd by the time I post this because ER shifts are insane!), and that means all of the elves have come out! Here in my house, we call him Snowflake and my son LOVES him! If you have an autistic baby like me (and by baby I mean 10 year old), then you move heaven and hearth to make sure this little guy or gal is living their best life for 24 days in December! If you have not gotten yours yet, check them out HERE!


This year I branched out a little. I work over 40 hours a week as an ER nurse, plus speech therapy, OT therapy, regular therapy for Liam and myself. Not to mention the house work, I am in school for ANOTHER degree in Medical Billing and Coding and the list can just go on and on. This year, like I am sure some other moms did, I branched out a little. I got myself on of these hand dandy little Elf on the Shelf PRE-MADE kits! They come in several different options that cover a week of the month, half of the month or the whole month!

How cute are these little kits? You can order them from amazon HERE! I cannot wait to use these! Everything comes already packaged for you for EACH DAY! It takes the guessing games out of remembering to move the elf and also makes it to where you aren't searching up ideas online! I am so looking forward to sharing some photos with all of you from Liam's elf, Snowflake!


Do you have an elf? Elves? I'd love to hear their names and stories! I think this is such an adorable tradition and a way to help keep the spirit alive for the littles, and maybe for ourselves as well!


I hope all of you are having an amazing Christmas season!

I absolutely love the idea of these elves! We have two! Their names are Lola and Sparkles! I have 2 girls, so one elf apparently was not enough! I think Snowflake is a cute name for a Christmas Elf!


I have not checked out these kits before, but thank you for posting the link. Sometimes finding ideas for these when I am exhausted at night is hard! This kit seems to make everything easier for you and takes the guess work out of it. I appreciate that as a mom on the go. I look forward to seeing some pictures of Snowflake! Merry Christmas to your family from mine!

Ohhh! Two! I never would have thought of that! Maybe Liam would like an extra elf to keep Snowflake company next year! Such a cute idea! I love the names of your elves! The joy these bring the kids is something else. Who knew a little ol' elf that you move nightly would bring such smiles!


I am so glad you think the kits are cute too! I have seen them before but I never invested until this year. TALK ABOUT A LIFE SAVER! No more guesswork, forgetting to move him or anything else! Having everything done for me is a godsend after having him for 7 years lol.


Merry Christmas to your family as well, Kenzi!
