A fun week for Melvin

Melvin and Barbie playing a game of "Guess Who?".
 Our little guy is a Steeler fan just like us!!
 Little stinker boy!
 Nibbling on some chocolate chips, he even has them all over his little face!

More Visits from Melvin

This week started with this little guy watching the movie "Elf" downstairs on the couch, popcorn and all. :)
 Then, Mr. Melvin Mischeif took down all the stockings and replaced them with our underwear!!  Look at him on the shelf looking all innocent?
 Melvin didn't cause any trouble when he colored a picture of Santa and himself.  So cute!!

Made a little marshmallow bubble bath in the bathroom sink.  Rub a dub dub an Elf in the tub!  Oh Melvin what will you do next?  Crazy kid!!

More Melvin Adventures

 Melvin got a bit thirsty for some syrup.  It's a well known fact that Elves love syrup. ;)
 The next morning we woke up to a "be good" message in some Christmas cereal.  Thanks for the reminder Melvin.
 I think that Melvin is hoping we get some snow soon and got a little impatient so he improvised with some sugar and snowflake sprinkles.  So stinking cute!
Then Saturday, Melvin caught a cold from playing in the snow and raided the medicine cabinet to try feeling better.  Poor little guy.  I sure hope he gets feeling better.

The Adventures of Melvin the Elf

This holiday season we have been lucky enough to have visits from one of Santa's special elves each morning.  Melvin has been pretty mischievous so far and it's so exciting to wake up each morning and see what his latest adventure is.  Hopefully when he sees Santa each night he is giving a good report.....
The first night Melvin thought it would be funny to draw on the pictures of the kids that hang in the hallway...

 Then he toilet papered the living room!!!
 He looks pretty innocent doesn't he???
 Making copies of himself on the printer.
 Melvin got a little crafty and made himself a paper countdown chain and has been patiently counting down and waiting for the kids to come home.  Wonder what he will be up to tonight?????  Tune in to see what our little Melvin is up to next.

Project Life - Week 7

Week 7 we celebrated Valentine's Day, my niece was in the hospital, finished up a project and had a wonderful date night with our neighbors.  I cannot fully express how much I enjoy the creative process of Project Life.  Wish I wasn't so far behind but there is nothing I love more! :)  Ok maybe the hubby and kiddos! ;)

Project Life - Week 4

Finally finished up Week 4 and am back to share.  I am trying not to think about how far behind I am, seeing as we are on Week 37 right now.  I am enjoying this too much to get overwhelmed by how much I still need to do.  I have several weeks completed, but just not in order.  I love finding my kids flipping through the pages and remembering the things that have happened throughout the year!  Makes it so worthwhile!
