He's back...and he's tired

Yes, Cocoa Buffy is back! He arrived a little later than normal this year, due to some behavior issues we think he delayed his coming. Laney realized quickly that it was Dec. 1 and our elf was no where to be seen. So she wrote him a letter (the sweetest letter ever) and that must have broken his little elf heart and he wasn't able to hold out any longer and arrived that Sunday during the kids nap. :)

So, he seems a bit more tired than normal this year. His nightly shenanigans just aren't quiet what they have been in the past, but I feel sure he is saving up his energy for a couple jaw droppers (or he is frantically searching pinterest for something that would be a big kid pleaser with not so much effort). Who knows.... Anyway, here are a few of the things he has been up to:

T-rex wanted to be the only guy in red around our house .... ELF ON THE TRACKS...STOP THE TRAIN!

Stomach virus elf...

Cocoa and Frosty playing some duet Christmas hymns while their friends sing along

Baby elf in a diaper in the doll bed

Reminiscing about days gone by

Elf aide - Thankful for Daddy...somedays Cocoa forgets to move himself

Kids really liked this one cause they could pull the string and make Cocoa go up and down. Since they don't get to touch him this was the next best thing
