While everyone is trying to come up with new and creative scenes for their Elf, one dad is taking it a step further and we just can't stop laughing.

While we can often get carried away with dressing up and posing this little elf, Alan Lawrence decided to skip the doll and dress up his baby instead.

As a father of six, he is no stranger to all the traditions that come along with the holidays. That includes the hilarious and beloved tradition of The Elf On The Shelf.

Thanks to Alan's awesome idea, we will never be able to look at The Elf On The Shelf in the same way again.

At only four-months-old, Rockwell is the youngest of Alan's children. This smilie baby was the perfect model for his own rendition of the popular Christmas tradition.

Getting the idea from all his friends who participate in the tradition, he documented his hilarious pictures on his blog.

With the help of his wife, who created the costume, Alan created a photo series to document their little elf's comings and goings and lucky for us, he keeps adding to the pictures.

This elf has already been caught doing a wide range of mischievous things.

Including eating things he shouldn't be.

Playing on the job.

Even waving to some hot girls in the car next to him.

And sneaking cookies where they don't belong.

And getting into places he shouldn't be.

Of course, causing trouble at breakfast is expected.

And bringing his toys in from outside.

But he is always great at capturing the moment.

He better watch his trouble-making ways or he will get sent back to the North Pole.

Share this with a friend who could use a good laugh!
