No matter your feelings about Elf on the Shelf, we can all agree on one thing: 6-month-old Dylan Eubert is as cute an elf as they come, dressed up as the holiday figure come to life.

Dylan's mom, Alyssa Eubert, dressed him up as the Elf on the Shelf, and the countdown to Christmas was on. She's posted a photo of Dylan in different scenarios every day since Dec. 1.

Eubert lives in Pottsville, Pennsylvania, and is also a stepmom to Zoe, 19, and Camryn, 13, who told "Good Morning America" that their mom made the costume for Dylan out of felt.

Eubert was only going to take one photo but then couldn't help herself. "I started thinking of fun ways to place my elf," she said.

"I have to take as many photos as I can," Eubert said. "I will have these sweet memories forever and maybe a picture for his senior yearbook one day."
