Christmas Cookies!

I made these for Jaxon's class party and I thought they turned out pretty cute!

I used this recipe for the cookies-

Cookie Recipe!

Also you use royal icing but the one I used didn't set up very fast so I'd use one you know works well!

Here are the directions for the cookies if you want them!

Snowman Tutorial

Hey there Eddie!

I sure hope Eddies sugar coating the boys behavior reports to Santa....because they are really close to getting coal! I think we might make it to Christmas but only time will tell! I lost my camera for a few days so Eddie wasn't photographed in Jaxon's room on the Godzilla bank, in Cade's  room playing with toys, in my bedroom hanging from my bird cage (decoration only lol) or in the kitchen. He was caught hanging in the front room-

And up above the cabinets in the kitchen riding on the sleigh with a snowman!

Eddie!

Our favorite elf got caught being naught last week! He thought the tree was a bit bare so he livened it up a bit with some underwear! The boys loved this trick last year so much he thought he'd repeat it!

He was also found kicked back in our wreath.

Attempting to play video games!

Up on our shelf waving the boys Medieval Times flag, and then later that night the boys gave

him our letters to Santa! They were so excited to get a letter back from the big guy himself!

He was found under our tree- sweet little guy he dug out the tree skirt- 

since Mommy had been to lazy! He passed his time playing with the boys hulk figures!

He was also found weighing himself in the kitchen on my display scale! 

Gotta watch those holiday pounds!

Don't you just love that little santa candle bulb =0)

Back to the elf....

In the morning he will be found in the living room riding in Cade's firetruck!

That's all his adventures up to date! Check back in for more this week!

13 days......

There are only 13 days until Christmas!!! Is your shopping done? I think I'm done for the most part, still need a few stocking stuffers for the boys then they are done! I'm always watching Amazon for great deals on toys! If you don't check amazon out you should, I've saved so much money shopping on there these past few years! I just returned Jaxon's main gift he asked for to ToysRus, I paid $54.99 a few weeks ago and got it on amazon for $29.99!! Also no tax or shipping on Amazon- woot! I got some great buys for our angel tree child as well last year by shopping the sales I was able to give more for the same amount!

Oh I just remembered I do need to do my shopping for Brett but I couldn't do that today since he was driving me around lol! Normally I like to go Christmas shopping without him but its getting harder to get around these days! I'm 24 weeks along about 5.5 months and starting to feel it! Here's a pic- not the best I took it with the computer hehe! I'm showing my bump and my new hair do!

We have such a busy week ahead! I'm going to pick up my Christmas chocolate for my candy on Monday- I must use a certain kind, totally makes the candy! The stuff they sell at walmart is not as good as this kind trust me! Cade and I make it a fun day we drive to Pauls Valley and pick it up and do lunch at Mcdonalds, also gotta check out their Walmart. Perhaps pick up some of Daddies stocking stuffers and maybe a few of mine as well...hey sometimes the man needs a little help! Wednesday Jaxon's class is caroling around Ada, Thursday I have an ultrasound and doctors appointment, and Friday is the last day of school party. I think I'm making cookies for that lol.

I can't wait for Christmas I know the boys are going to adore their gifts and it so fun to see the joy in their faces during the season. I'm so blessed to have such sweet little boys to share my life with...the big one isn't so bad either- most the time... I kid I kid.

Eddie will have more posts soon, I am taking pics as we go!

More elf fun!

Here are the latest places Eddie has been found!

In the bathroom playing in the 'snow' (cotton balls).

In the tree again- yeah at 2 am he's not very creative....

 

 Hanging out on the candle stick- he brought this for the boys-

Who would have thought they made a panda Christmas decoration? Jaxon was thrilled!

Yesterday we found him on our advent calender that I got out five days late- sue me- I'm behind schedule. He brought us some pretty cute signs to put in the yard.

Eddies here...

Here's what he's been up to the last couple of nights-

He hid in my flowers, they are perfect elf camo so he's hard to find!

He came back from the north pole with candy canes filled with kisses.

He also tried to help decorate the tree!

He hid in the kitchen and was caught trying to smuggle a Christmas Tree Cake back to Santa.

Check back to see what he's up to next!

Eddies almost here....

Eddie is coming back to our house on Thursday! Can't wait to see all the things he has planned this year!
