Elf On the Shelf: Day Eight

Standard

This day was a special day because I spent the entire day out of town and Zoey spent the day with Greg. To celebrate the start of the day (and because Zoey had asked for them the day before and I had told her no because we didn’t have time to start–and then I got the idea for Finn), our elf ‘borrowed’ my truck and went to Dunkin Donuts to pick up some munchkin donuts for breakfast.

Greg told me later that Zoey was having a lazy morning that morning and had no intention of getting out of bed to eat breakfast. She ended up in our room (most likely to snuggle with Greg and watch cartoons on our tv.) So, Greg had to carry the elf and the donuts upstairs and explain to her that Finn got them for her. Zoey thanked Finn and then proceeded to eat the donuts in our bed–we found lots of crumbs later.

When I called from NYC to check on things later on the day, Zoey told me all about Finn and the donuts. OMG the cuteness.

Happy Birthday, Preble Road Crew

Standard

Last week, this silly little dog-and-pony-show blog celebrated its first birthday. It was a quiet celebration in the fact that I totally forgot all about it being the 1-year anniversary until a couple of days later. Go me.

But I couldn’t let the occasion pass without any mention here. This is BIG, people. We’re a year old now and hopefully, we’ll have a lot more birthdays to come.

So, in the past year, we’ve gone from having an infant with teething issues to a toddler, who can’t get enough Fresh Beat Band. We lost a lot of dear friends and family members and even though they are sorely missed, they are still in our thoughts. We’ve weathered ups and downs and talked about poop quite a few times. We took pledges to support other mommy bloggers and be the best parents we can be and we even started networking with other sites and bloggers to bring you, the reader, parenting reviews, awesome site links and more.
