Seasonal Pandering: Pumpkin Babies!

From out of the two-week-non-posting-ether, I bring good tidings: someone has created a mutant half-baby, half-pumpkin, and it turns out he is adorable:

Look at that wittle face and those wittle hands and the adorable wittle bags under his eyes. He's all tiny and in a sack. That is way more adorable than the half-gourd babies of previous Halloween seasons, what with their collapsed lower jaws and obscenely bulbous tummies:

I am so over them. And, of course, I'm really happy at this move away from Anne Geddes:

Frankly, I like to stay as far away from her and her photographs as possible. Have you seen the one where the woman has her newborn strapped to her stomach with cheesecloth as though it's still in the womb? That cannot be healthy. I'll take the Lil Pumpkin Cocoon Wrap Snuggler over her stuff any day.

I can't imagine stuffing a baby in a pumpkin and trying to get his legs out those holes.

OK...so that Anne Geddes pic with the cheesecloth is freaky as hell. She looks like an alien queen ready to spawn a little demonic face-hugger critter...*shudder*

Man, that top pumpkin snugglie thing looks so comfortable. I want to be all wrapped up in that!

Kim: people do strange things in the name of baby photographs, don't they?

Sherezada: Okay, I agree that it's a little creepy, but I fear I've traumatized you with the baby-bug creature from that last post.

xcvenus: Didn't you say a few months ago that you wanted to wear baby onesies? I'm sensing a pattern.

Please tell me no pumpkin babies were harmed in the making of that pumpkin pie you served me the other night.

Agg! Dana! What's up with the constant posting about babies?! It's making me feel maternal.
