chillin' like a christmas villain

so it's about 4 in the morning and maeve and i are having a little party so i thought it would be the perfect time to blog...well, not perfect--but i have to find something to do since we don't have cable tv and the only thing on regular tv is news! bleh...

anywho--last night when steve FINALLY got home from judging the all south jersey music participants (88 kids playing clarinet solos...it almost makes staying home all day with two babies sound FUN (which actually, it was!) we headed out to get groceries. i love you wegmans! after groceries we decided to head to a local living nativity. we knew amelie would love seeing the live animals and hearing about Jesus--the only problem was that everyone in the county decided to head over and there were about nine million people there! yikes!

we waited for over an hour before we got to walk through the nativity and i was just praying the WHOLE time that maeve would sleep for the next 3 hours so i wouldn't have to find somewhere to breastfeed in an unfamiliar church filled with nine million unfamiliar people! luckily for me maeve slept--through groceries, the car ride, the 1 hour sit in the sanctuary and finally through the freezing cold outdoor tour of 13 scenes from the life of Jesus. yay maeve! (and i'm pretty sure that's why we're partying here at 4 a.m.--she slept TOO much!).

amelie really loved the animals and seeing the angels fly and the fact that at the end Jesus was literally hidin' in the clouds as they showed the ascension and the boy playing Jesus was hoisted up and behind a set of clouds--so now amelie really DOES think that Jesus is hidin' up there behind the clouds all the time!
