Choccy woccy doodaa....

December 8th, 2013


A bit late in writing this today as we have been out and about all day.

I went to bed last night feeling a lot better about Ernie and his behaviour and thinking that maybe we had gotten over the messy antics and he had gotten it out of his system.

Once again we had snow and footprints by the elf door so good sign.

Snowy footprints again!

Ernie was found chillaxin having a COSTA...well a baby chino to be exact.  You can't deny that he has great taste as COSTA is yummy!

lurp slurp yum yum!

COSTA is definitely a big thumbs up from Ernie.  And so much better than beer!

Blocks of fun......

December 7th, 2013

After tucking Ernie up all cozy in his bed we took ourselves off to the land of nod.  My dreams were filled with the horrors of what I might find in the morning.  After being tied up by the other elves to stop him from being naughty and messy I was expecting to come down to total chaos.

All tucked up asleep.

Ernie had gone to make his report to Santa as normal...we know this because there was snow and footprints in front of the elf door again.

Cute little footprints.

Maybe Santa has told Ernie that he needs to be less messy and a bit better behaved, because when I came down in the morning I was not expecting what I found.  Yes there was a little bit of mess but Ernie was being very good.  He had been playing with building blocks and built a nice tower.  He was also sitting with Barbie and playing a tune on the xylophone!  Minnie was watching and from the look of it they had, had a jolly good time!

Enjoying themselves!

Ernie has been a great fun house guest.  I really can't wait to see each morning what his mischief might be.

Mischief Managed.....

 December 6th, 2013

 So far Ernie's antics have all been rather messy....even his non messy day yesterday had me cleaning up all the snow.  Suffice to say I go to bed with both excitement and trepidation of what to expect when I get up in the morning.

I woke up and mentally prepared myself for the mess I may find......instead I found THIS!!

Tied to TV unit!

Ernie was tied up to the TV unit, dangling, and there wasn't any mess or mischief anywhere!

There was a note next to him.........

 

The elves left a note

The note was from Ernie's fellow elves.  They must have heard about how much mischief and mess he was making and tried to help.  I fear however that because he couldn't get up to his tricks yesterday we may be in for a really big surprise tomorrow! I am just hoping that he doesn't have a blow out and go completely crazy!

As mischievous and naughty that Ernie is we wouldn't be without him, we have come to love our little elf visitor!

Snowy fun....

December 5th, 2013

 We all went to bed feeling excited at what the next days mischief would be.  I have to admit I was also slightly nervous, so far all of Ernie's shenanigans had meant that I had to do a bit of cleaning up after him!
Imagine my surprise when I walked into the living room and found......no mess.  Not a single thing was out of place, not a single bit of silly string, not a thing!

The girls were quite sad at first as they loved finding Ernie's silliness.  Feeling disappointed we went to put the TV on....that's when we found him.

When he comes back through the door snow is often left behind.  This time Ernie brought extra!

A lot of snow this time

Fun times!

Ernie was lying on the floor in a pile of snow making snow angels.  What a cute little elf!

I took the girls to school and once again when I came back Ernie was lying in his elf bed, his antics are making him very tired.

Who used all the loo roll?....

December 4th, 2013

 Going to bed is turning into a rather exciting activity for us.  We all go up and eagerly await the morning when we can find out what our mischevious little guest is going to have been up to.

Once again we checked the Elf door and found that Ernie had indeed been through it! The footprints were really clear this time.

Footprints!

We then noticed the Christmas tree.  Ernie had struck again.  He really is a naughty little elf.

Nice decorating....

There was toilet roll everywhere, but no Ernie in sight.  We hunted and looked everywhere but we couldn't find him.  It was then that we decided to open the curtains and tidy up the mess when low and behold we found him! 

A stuck naughty little elf!

Ernie had got himself stuck on the curtain pole wedged into an empty toilet roll tube.  Silly little elf!

I took the girls to school and came home.  I checked the curtain pole and Ernie had vanished.  I was worried for a minute till I checked by the elf door and found Ernie asleep in his bed that the girls had made for him.  All the excitement of the night before and getting stuck in a toilet roll tube must have taken it out of the poor little guy.

A very tired little elf.

I have left Ernie snoozing I am sure that he needs all of his strength for tonight!

Party time....

December 3rd, 2013

We went to bed again excited for where we would find Ernie in the morning.  I am thinking Santa has sent us a particularly mischievous little elf!

Having fun times!

Not only did Ernie help himself to a beer, he also went a bit mad with some silly string.  Walking into the living room in the early hours of the morning to go to the loo was not a good experience...I thought we had been invaded by giant spiders when I walked into some silly string!

Ernie is proving to be a very fun and exciting house guest, especially as far as the girls are concerned, I however am finding that he involves a lot of cleaning up after!

The fun begins...

Mr Ernie Jingletoes chillaxing

We all went to bed excited about what antics our Elf could get up to.  We were not disappointed.  I had hoovered the floor the day before after Ernie came through the elf door, so we were very excited when we saw that there was more snow and footprints there!

Ernie was caught red handed having a marshmallow bath with none other than Minnie Mouse!

He seems to be enjoying himself immensely!!

 As well as leaving candy canes by the bath Ernie also left the girls some in the tree.

 

Ernie is currantly relaxing in his bath and I am sure he will get up to more mischief tonight after he makes his report to Santa!
