where is baby Jesus?

This has been the big, comical question around our house these days. Addison has a new found love for the manger scene and all of its characters. She is always moving them around and making them talk to each other. It is quite sweet.
 

I had her help me set it up a couple weeks ago, and she immediately fell in love with baby Jesus. Her exact words were, "Oh, Mom, he is so adorable." :)

He is so adorable to her that she keeps carrying him off or hiding him behind some animals. Soooo, what should look like this...
 ...keeps looking like...
...this!

I know some people don't put Jesus in the manger until Christmas morning. We kind of do both. We have him out before Christmas to complete the scene, but hide him Christmas morning for the kids to find and put in the manger...and sing 'happy birthday' of course. :) Gotta love this season.

  1. Kaidyn does the same thing with our nativity set! To top things off, we are having a birthday party for Baby Jesus along with our cookie party on Thursday! She insisted we get princess balloons until I told her Jesus was a boy! Doesn't quite get it but I love how she is all about it! I hope you all can make it Thurs.!
