Chippy needed a new view today so he took it up a few feet. Looks like his friends are good with the heights – they’re all there! And it looks like Chippy has set the menu for the week – cookies everyday, I’m in! Today’s adventure was off to Aunt Leslie’s for a gingerbread house… Continue reading Adventures with Chippy – Day 16

Baking anyone? I think Chippy has witnessed my whirlwind Gingersnap baking-athon. So far, two batches have been made with the intent of taking a dozen to each of Reese’s teachers. Each batch has made 7+ dozen. I’ll need to take 8 dozen to school and bake more for all the folks at work – yikes,… Continue reading Adventures with Chippy – Day 15

Chippy seems to like to be around the snowmen – I guess it makes him feel like he’s in the North Pole? Looks like Chippy and his new friends have really hit it off and are now travelling around the house together. I wonder what tomorrow will bring. Seriously, where is he going to go… Continue reading Adventures with Chippy – Day 14

Chippy is starting to get adventurous! Reese says he’s mischievous – either way, he’s starting to explore more. Today he found a new friend and a piano. Hint taken, Chippy, we’ll sign Reese up for lessons in the new year. And glad you have another friend, the parking lot pup will be happy to stay… Continue reading Adventures with Chippy – Day 13

Day 12… are we there yet? Chippy helped me to see there is an end in sight – only 13 days until Christmas!! Wait, only 13 days until Christmas!!

Yesterday was a busy day for us – Reese was asked to light the Advent candle at church. Donning his Minecraft Christmas sweatshirt, he owned the stage and was so proud to light the candle! Later that afternoon, we went back to church for a Christmas concert and candle lighting service, hot chocolate, a gingerbread… Continue reading Adventures with Chippy – Day 11

We watched the Elf on a Shelf movie last night. Reese was amazed that the elf in the movie had the same name as his elf = Chippy. After watching the movie, he decided Chippy needed chocolate and a friend. So, he left three pieces of Dove Dark Chocolate to snack on and a small… Continue reading Adventures with Chippy – Day 10

Looks like the wind is trying to take Chippy’s elf hat! The cold front blowing in must have loosened his hat – hold on, Chippy! The morning after the office Christmas Party and Reese staying up way too late with his Uncle & Aunt, calls for donuts!! Wait, only 16 days until Christmas?!?!

Today was Reese’s school program, so this morning was a bit rushed since it started at 8:15AM. Chippy still managed to surprise us – today he was keeping cool with Frosty! Good thing, it was 80 degrees out!!! Apparently today is the ‘naughty” side! Chippy, I tried!

Chippy was just as surprised as I was when Reese wandered out of the bedroom at 5:45 AM!! Chippy was almost caught in transit! Reese was a little off his game this morning and Chippy slipped his mind. Chippy still had a chance! Sometime after Reese left for school, Chippy ended up in a coffee… Continue reading Adventures with Chippy – Day 7
