A Child's Nativity

Pearl picked out a pack of neutral colored modeling clay one day when we did some solo shopping--or rather duet, since it was just the two of us.  I brought it home to present to the other baby dills along with cardboard inserts from the bulbs, an empty brie box, and a clementine crate.  I think they deserve a standing ovation for their creations.

Divine's nativity--complete with needles from the Christmas tree.  I love the giant eyes--especially on baby Jesus.





Pearl's nativity--she went wild with the animals.  My favorite is the white sheep with the black head and legs.





Olive's nativity--with help from her sisters



And Miss Cloves wanting in on the shutter action--who can resist that lipless grin?

    Miss that little lipless, one with the happy countenance.

  10. Wow, those are awesome! I found your blog from your comment on V&co. You're so lucky to have 5 girls! I had 4 boys and then finally one girl- I'm so happy to have her! I love my boys but having a girl is great! Happy Holidays!
