I'm loving our Elf - "Clark" (named after Clark W. Griswold)  Although IV does not "get it" yet...Stew and I are having more fun every night finding a new spot for him.

Here he is hanging out of IV's favorite berry tree.

I'm in my glory this Holiday season, especially because I'm home all day - and have the tree lit, soups cooking - but have yet to put the fireplace on. I'm really enjoying it - it just needs to snow now.

We are taking a mini vacation to the mountains soon. I'm beyond excited to pack up the car like a bunch of amateurs - I'll be sure to take a picture because it's guaranteed to be ridiculously full of unnecessary baby stuff. But I'm excited to get away!

That's all for today - it's nap time and I have lots to do. Happy Thursday.
