Meet Holly B. Jolly!

On Friday morning, our Secret Elf--Holly B. Jolly arrived.

As I suspected, Lucas is taking Holly's presence here at the house very seriously.  While Addison is so-so.  Makes sense--Lucas is the rule follower!  Even when it's Addison that is doing something "naughty", Lucas gets very concerned and says don't show or don't tell Holly.  He doesn't want anything to mess up Santa believing he is a good boy and deserves the presents he is asking for :)  Funny how even when you try to give them autonomy, they still see themselves as a pair.

Addison is finding the fun in Holly's mischief.  This morning she was found playing inside Addison's Little People Castle.  Right away Addison said, "That's bad Mommy.  It's for princesses."

Super Cute!

Today we received a very exciting package from Aunt Barb.  Lucas was more concerned with whether or not Aunt Barb was coming to visit while Addison could hardly contain her excitement as we opened the package and found a fabulous selection of princess movies.  (If only I had the camera ready to capture her expression when she saw that they were princess movies!)

So this new found treasure became my leverage for getting them to take a "good nap" today ;)

After nap, we popped in Cinderella.  This is Addison glued to the movie.

This is her realizing I'm taking photos.

And now she's all set to pose for the camera in her princess crown.  LOL!  (note: I had to pause the movie)

And now for a super cute quote from Addison while watching the movie...as you may recall in Cinderella her step-sisters are quite mean and tear apart her mother's gown that she intends on wearing to the ball.  Well, Addison got all sad that they "broke" her dress and turns to me and says "I can fix it.  When I get glue on it."  Aawwwww, cute!!

Thanks, Aunt Barb!
