Looks like it needs some Desitin for the diaper rash on its face. Maybe that is why it appears to be howling like a banshee. Then there is the bonus of the severe eczema on its hands and feet.

Apparently her collection of “Baby Died in Agony” deathmasks weren’t getting put to enough use.

Someone a while back made the comment that newborn babies can be ugly…kinda inferring how this one came to look like this. My youngest (now 14) was a premie and arrived 7 weeks early. He looked like a little old man with absolutely no muscle tone (and no butt cheeks). But even with all of that working against him he was still cute and nowhere near this monstrosity. I double checked the newborn photo just in case mommy had too many drugs at the hospital.

it reminds me of those scenes in “aliens” where the creature tears its way out of various people’s stomachs….except the alien was cuter than this one-armed, one-legged yowling horror

Hee! Thistle, “one-armed, one-legged yowling horror” is my new nickname for…well, someone. I’ll figure it out. It just has too good of a ring NOT to use.

whats with the grubby pink cheeks.

Its 10″ long for Christ’s sake! Seriously…hold your hands up at approximately 10″. That’s how long this thing it! It would be one thing if it could be hidden in the branches at a mere 2″ (say, if you kid made it as sunday school and you had to post it for fear of hurting their feelings until by some stroke of ‘luck’ it gets lost and they hopefully forget all about it next year)-but the thing is huge! It will be THE focus on the tree! Who…

Wow..there are some typos there!

Side note, my husband, who usually couldn’t care less, saw this over my shoulder and cracked up asking why there is a pissed off crying baby hanging outside in a caccoon.

This thing brings to mind all the baby books I nervously read when my wife was expecting:
“If your infant chokes on a foreign object during the holidays, wrap golden garland tightly around him/her directly below the rib cage and pull firmly. This should expel the object.”

I just realized this thing is almost 2 full inches longer than my foot- granted I have small feet, but that’s one hell of an “ornament”.

This ornament is a casual reminder of why you got the vasectomy/hysterectomy.

Can you imagine going to someone else’s house and seeing a tree decorated with these things? Really, imagine it. I used to know this weird guy in college that had a collection of Madonnas and other weird cemetery art all over his apartment. That was freaky. Not nearly as freaky as a tree full of sculpted babies in alien caccoons would be. I’d feel like someone needed to started digging out the backyard.

It kinda looks like a baby got trapped in one of those machines with a moth, like that guy got trapped in one with a fly in that movie The Fly, and the baby came out the other end with moth parts. Or the moth came out the other end with baby parts. Take your pick. But most importantly, swat it with a fly swatter or hit it with some Raid.
