POD: Christmas Corner

From Picture of the Day 2013

Yesterday at the Christmas concert we won a Night Before Christmas house. It lights up and tells the story of the night before Christmas. We set it up with our Christmas cards around it, and it seems little Jingles approves, because this morning we came downstairs to find him hit on the house watching over our living room. .

 

POD: Trapped Elf

It would seem that all of Jingles Naughtiness has caught up with him. When we came downstairs today we found him tapped to the wall surrounded by army men. I’m not sure what the kids thought, though they were definitely excited to see him there. I’m sure tonight he’ll find a way to get himself down, and find a new place to hang out for tomorrow. Unless some other toys have a grudge against Jingles that is.

POD: Elf Sized Pancakes

This morning we came downstairs to find that Jingles had made breakfast for everyone. Of course he’s a little guy so instead of regular sized Pancakes he made Elf Sized ones. The kids loved them. As always I’m left scratching my head wondering what surprises our little elf has for us in the few remaining days till christmas.

POD: Jingle’s Tea Party

From Picture of the Day 2013

This morning we woke to find Jingles hanging out in Violet’s room having a Tea Party with some of her dolls. It seems he once again raided our cookies. I was surprised that Violet didn’t find Jingles, it took Jacob to come along and find Jingles and his Tea Party. Of course once it was found Violet was very excited and took a cup of Tea for herself before helping herself to the cookies.

POD: Watching Candy Canes Grow

From Picture of the Day 2013

This morning we came down stairs to find Jingles sitting on the table watching the bowl of sugar we planted the Magic beans in last night. Of course it wasn’t just a bowl of sugar anymore, each of the magic beans had sprouted out to a full candy cane.  The kids were so excited to see them this morning. I wonder what other surprises our little Jingles has in store for us in two weeks till Christmas.

POD: Magic Beans

From Picture of the Day 2013

Today Jingles surprised the kids with a letter and some ‘Magic Beans’. The kids are to plant them into a bowl of sugar and the next morning something wonderful and magical will grow. Unfortunately we didn’t plant them tonight so you’ll have to wait a couple of days before seeing what grows.  As I look at today’s picture I think that this month is in danger of becoming the month of Jingles,. Of course know all the exciting things we have planned in the coming days and weeks I can promise that this will not be the month of Jingles. Though I will be taking a picture of Jingles each day and posting them to my Flickr account (Link will be here when I’ve set it up).

POD: Gone Fishing?

From Picture of the Day 2013

Last year little Jingles tried to catch our fish (POD: Fishing Elf), this year we don’t have a fish, but seem that Jingles still wanted to fish. At least this year the kids thought that the fish he’s trying to catch were cute. This year Violet made no attempt to steal the fishing rod from Jingles, though I’m not so sure about the fishes.
