- [Dad] You look just like a mermaid!
(upbeat music) (children laughing)
- Hey, you get over here! (child screaming)
- Whoa (child laughing)
- [Mom] You should get into break dancing.
- Seriously. Oh Nico is break dancing.
He's going backwards.
(cheering)
- Bah-ti, yeah!
(child screaming and laughing)
(boom)
(parents laughing) - Wow!
- Catch, dad.
(boing)
- We just found a note in our tree
and I don't know what she send us in that note.
- [Dad] Have you checked it out?
- Yeah let's go, c'mon.
- Welcome to another best day ever.
I love these mornings. They start out so fun.
- I can't reach.
Oh, the six.
Can you get the note and chocolate?
- [Dad] Note, chocolate.
- Stick it on you.
- Oh, you're going to stick it on me, huh?
- [Dad] It says, Addleigh,
I love the snow but sometimes I just like it when it's hot
and I pretend I'm a mermaid,
laying out at the beach by the water.
Do you want to be a mermaid with me?
- Where could she be then? - What?
- [Dad] A mermaid thing?
- She has to be a mermaid.
- [Dad] But what does that mean?
- I don't know where she is.
She might be in, like there.
- Oh, in the sink? - No.
She wants to be a mermaid and (mumbles).
- [Dad] Water, where can we find water?
- Water is in the sink.
But in this,
- Ohh... - the bathroom.
- Let's see here. (light switch clicks on)
(gasp)
- Look what she got for me! - Holy cow.
That looks so cozy. - Is it warm?
Is it warm? My blankey.
- [Dad] You can get inside and be cozy.
- Yeah! Let's go try it.
- [Dad] Wait wait.
Look at the mermaid.
- I'm going to try it out.
- [Dad] Oh, it changes to purple.
Wait, how do you change it?
- So you wipe it off like this.
Get on! Get on!
Look how cozy it looks.
(dad laughing)
(knock)
- [Dad] You look just like a mermaid!
- Dad, go.
Let's go see what it says on the mirror.
- [Dad] The mirror says,
Hi Addleigh.
I got you a mermaid tail so we can be twinners.
Remember to have lots of fun
and be a good girl today.
Wow.
You're crazy, Snow.
- Yeah. You're crazy, Snowy.
It's not Snowt's Snowy.
- [Dad] Oh, Snowy.
All right. Should we go cuddle up
and get some cereal with your tail?
- Yeah!
- [Dad] Yeah!
- Tails aren't for eating.
- Fish are friends.
- [Dad] Oh, they're not for eating?
What are they for?
- They're for swimming.
- [Dad] Oh, gotcha.
Are we going to go swimming in that later?
- We forgot elf on my calendar.
- [Dad] Oh yeah.
So everyday, Addleigh has been opening socks 'til Christmas.
- I did one, and then two.
And then three, and then four.
Now I need to open seven.
- Seven? Where's seven? (scary music)
- I need to go potty.
(dad laughing) - Okay, here you go.
There's seven.
There's your socks you're going to open.
(camera falls)
- Don't open it yet!
- I won't, I'm waiting.
I love how fun these mornings are before Christmas
with the countdown-- - Boo!
(scary music)
- [Dad] When did you get back?
- Is this number seven?
- [Dad] Yeah that's number seven.
Look, there's a socky.
(boing) No way!
What is that? - I don't know.
It's on his head and then his face is right here.
- [Dad] It's like a unicorn dolphin.
I think it's called a narwhal or something.
Oh look, they have Christmas.
- Uh oh.
- [Dad] Hey, that's upside down!
- No, no, that's okay.
- [Dad] No it's not, that's upside down!
- They're actually slippery. - Okay, let's see.
(banana peel slip) - Whoa!
- Whoa, careful, whoa! - Whoa!
- [Dad] Careful.
Here I'll help ya up.
Careful, whoa. (girl squeals)
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
We're going to grab some cereal then be back to the fun.
- I already ate cereal.
- [Dad] You did?
- Yeah.
- You woke up and got cereal already?
She's been waking up early and getting into the cereal.
So awesome, you're growing up Addleigh.
You're a big kid.
- Oh, dad! - What?
- Let's go upstairs. - Why?
- Remember we left the water out
with candy inside?
- [Dad] Oh, should we check it out?
- Let's go taste it.
- [Dad] Tell the blog what we did.
- So last time we were doing clues
and daddy told me to get him some water
and then I pretended to sneak out and put candy in it.
Then, I told him, when it was dark,
when it was nighttime,
and we were going to bed,
and we put the candies in the water.
And we wanted to check how it taste when it was morning.
And now we're going to go taste it.
- We made a secret water potion with candy.
And we're gonna to try it in the morning
to see if it was good.
Do you think it's good? - I don't know.
- I don't know either. - Wait, wait.
- What? - Maybe we should try a little
and see if it's good or bad.
And if it's bad
(whispers) we'll put one of these in it
and make it sweet.
- [Dad] Oh, good idea.
Yeah, that would make it sweet.
- Actually.. - Oh!
Yeah, you can get it from in there.
- We only need one.
- [Dad] That will make it sweet.
- Sweety boom. (boom)
- Where did you put it? - In my bedroom.
- [Dad] Okay.
- Do you know why I did an X on my door?
- [Dad] Why did you do an X on your door?
- Because Nico is not allowed in my room.
- [Dad] What?
- He's not allowed in my room. - What a stinker.
- Here's why. - 'Cause why?
- Because he always mess ups my room.
- [Dad] He always mess ups your room?
What a turd.
All right. This is the weird potion we made last night.
What does it look like?
Ew!
I'm not drinking that.
- I can try it.
- [Dad] Maybe it's good.
- Mmh, it's good but,
I think I still want to put this in.
- [Dad] Put it in, make it sweet.
(sonic boom)
What did it taste like?
- It taste like lemon.
It's so sour.
(dad laughing)
Do I dump a little water in it?
- [Dad] Yeah, maybe it's need a little water.
(clanking loudly)
(sipping gently)
(dad laughing loudly)
- What a funny morning so far.
Did you just spit in there?
- Should we go downstairs and let it melt?
- [Dad] Yeah, let's go downstairs and let it melt.
(arabic music) Oh, that's a cool dance.
- This is our stir stick. - Good idea.
- Do we want to stir or
pat it gently?
- [Dad] Should we put it in the fridge
so it gets nice and cold?
- Yeah, how 'bout I try one more ingredient?
- [Dad] What's the last ingredient?
Oh boy. - One puff.
- [Dad] One puff?
- Two puffs. - Two puffs?
(vampire laughing happily)
- [Dad] I don't know about this.
It's getting crazy.
You're like a mad scientist.
- No, I'm a happy scientist.
- [Dad] (laughing) You're a happy scientist?
- I just making a girls potion.
- [Dad] Oh, just a girls potion.
But you're a happy scientist?
Got it.
- I make happy things.
(dad laughing) - Not mad things?
Hey, happy scientist, let's put it in the fridge.
- Now, after I put this in,
let's let it sit and go get Nico.
(dad laughing) You know what it looks like?
- What? - It looks a bit like
this milk.
- Oh, eggnog? - Yeah,
this potion looks a bit like this one.
- [Dad] Maybe that's how you make eggnog.
You put candy in water.
We just figured out how to make eggnog, you guys.
Okay, should we go get Nico?
- Yeah, let's go get Nico.
- (singing) Let's go get Nico.
My second favorite part of the morning.
- Watch what I can do.

All right, let's sneak in.
- Watch what I can do.
- [Dad] Holy cow!
(swoosh)
Whoa! That was way good.
- Open it, I'll open it.

You guys, Addleigh is really good

- Yep. - Hey,

Hey crazy girl, why is it important to share?
- 'Cause I'm nice to my brother all times.
And I love my brother.
- [Dad] That's true, good job.
See that, you have to be nice to your
brothers and sisters.
Where is he?

I'm a nice unicorn. (growl)
I'm getting distracted.
We're still getting distracted.
It's like a kid in a toy store.
We found the school supplies.
Okay, first thing we need is a box of crayons.
(mumbling)

I like the color.
- They're heavy. - Just one.

Should we do those?
Oh look at these, there's a lot in this one.

That's not an eraser. - I'm just showing you.

Did you just fall down?
You're crazy.

Addleigh's dance recital is by Roland's house
so we came to say hi.
Parker and Jamie also live here too.
Hello?
(laughing)
- Dad, let's build it even bigger!
- It's falling a part.
I think that's as big as it goes.
I can't find anymore pieces.
