Steve the Elf











I had heard about Santa sending elves to houses when the children could possibly be on the naughty list. So Steve the elf paid us a little visit! Kylie and Blake enjoyed waking up each morning to figure out where Steve was for the day. The kids could not touch him or his magic would go away. Blake made sure to introduce Steve to all of our visitors and remind them not to touch him. They were sad to see Steve go on Christmas Eve, but I'm sure he'll be back next year.

Do all the princesses have those?


At this point, with two young ones we are not quite a modest family. The kids take showers with me or are often under my feet when I am getting out of the shower and getting ready. So nudity is not generally a big deal. Kylie always asks a lot of questions, but she has been focused on her body lately! When I was getting undressed the other day, she pointed to my breasts and asked what those were. I knew exactly what she was talking about, but stalled for time and pointed to my bra, "this?" She responded no and pointed again. I believe in using the correct terminalogy for things and not sugarcoating it with silly names so I said, "breasts." Then of course she wanted to know if hers were going to look like that one day. I said yes which led to how will it happen, is it magic? Hoping that would appease her, I said yes kind of. This seem to satisfy her and then she asked, do all the princesses have those because they should! Kylie you are so funny!
