Angels We Have Heard On High

When it comes to underwhelming Christmas concert performances, these girls do not disappoint. Not to be outdone by last year's showcase (the one where she stood around doing nothing until the kid next to her convinced her to march in place), Abby spent the first portion of this year's CBS Christmas concert facing backward, for no particular reason.

When her teacher finally got her attention and got her facing the right way, she stood shoulder to shoulder with her BFF while the two competed to see who could stare blankly into the audience for the longest period of time without blinking.

Toward the end, she managed to lip sync a few lines of "Away in a Manger" before getting distracted by the bell she was supposed to be shaking and wandering to the back of the stage to chat with her teacher. She returned to the front of the stage just in time to receive a round of applause from a room full of over-eager parents. By then the pressure was simply more than she could handle, and she exited the stage with her thumb planted firmly in her mouth.

And like a good mom, I got the whole thing on video.
