Hilarious dad turns baby into a real life Elf on the Shelf

When Alan Lawrence, first started documenting his life as a dad of six kiddos, he probably never expected to become a huge viral sensation, but that’s exactly what happened when he turned his baby, Rockwell, into a real life Elf on the Shelf.

Placing Rockwell in the most hilarious Elf on the Shelf-like situations, Lawrence may, at first, seem a tad irresponsible, but his kooky antics are the result of being a dab hand at Photoshop, and not the real deal! From perching Rockwell at the very the top of a shower rail, to letting him slide down the staircase in a sleigh, these images are full of Christmas cheer!

Lawrence has also gaining a following for using Photoshop to raise awareness of Down Syndrome. When son Wil was born with one extra chromosome, Lawrence made it his mission to make sure people around the world knew that having Down Syndrome didn’t impact on his ability to fly and achieve his goals.

What has ensued is a bevy of creative pics of Wil flying everywhere – too cute!
