Introducing the new member of our family....

Meet Pickler. Audrey's elf on the shelf. Elf became a member of our house hold last year but this is the first year we've busted him out of the box. We watched the little movie about how the elf goes back and forth to Santa and she understood that elf would be watching and reporting. Barker asked her what she wanted to name him and she immediately busted out 'Pickler!' No idea why. She hates pickles. But she was adamant. So welcome Pickler. SHE, cause Audrey also believes her elf is a lady, makes sure Audrey listens to her mommy and daddy, flies to the North Pole every night to give her report to Santa on Audrey's behavior, then flies back into our home before we wake up. So every morning when Audrey gets up she finds Pickler in various situations around the house. Here are some of the places we've found her.

 crusin' in the Barbie car with Rapunzel


 taking Max for a stroll


 Cinderella's carriage


 playing some Christmas tunes on the piano


 having some cake with Tink


 relaxing by the fire


and enjoying a nice warm bath

Audrey adores racing downstairs at 8 every morning to search for Pickler. It's so much fun to see her face when she makes the discovery, then she just laughs and laughs and tells Pickler how silly or crazy she is. This Christmas is going to be the best one yet!!!
