So when he arrived I made it a point that the whole family had to agree on a name for him. CJ and Cordell liked this idea. And we settled on Hermie. (You know from Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.) There wasn't many options prior to Hermie we all loved the idea.
So this is what Hermie has been up to for the past week.
Night 1- I went to go read David the story and when I returned to put the book back with the box I noticed Hermie was missing. I later found him in the coffee cup cabinet.
Day 1 - We woke to find Hermie got the coffee ready for my hubby (since he's the first up).
Day 2 - This time Hermie decided to have a little fun and draw on my Step-Children's kid picture we have hanging up in the hall. Cordell, my youngest stepson, said elves aren't suppose to do stuff like that because it teaches bad things. (Such a smart 17 year old LoL)
Day 3 - Hermie thought it would be a good idea to just hang out today.
Day 4 - Because my older step sons stay up late (got to love a 17 year old and a 20 year old, they never sleep) and my hubby wakes up really early (normally 5/6am) Hermie has to be really quick with his trip to the North Pole. Well this morning, he was trying to sneak a candy cane, but my hubby woke up and caught him stuck in the box.
Day 5 - Today, Hermie watched the whole house from on top of the fire place (I think he was hinting to not having any decorations up yet. I'm still trying to find them all)
Day 6 - Hermie watched himself on TV this night. It was funny because I didn't know Rudolph was going to be until after I found Hermie watching TV earlier in the day.
Day 7 - Hermie got a sweet tooth again and tried to sneak candy out of the candy jar
So Hermie hasn't done too much destruction in my house. Believe me, I talked to him that first night he pulled the disappearing act on me to not follow in his fellow Elves footsteps and to try to keep my home clean. I've already have 3 boys, a husband, 2 dogs, and 4 cats to clean up after. I don't need an elf to add to the mess. So far he's been GREAT! We'll see what happens this coming up week. :)
See Ya.
