Blog Marathon - Mile 10 - AHHHH - a bear

One of the great things about morning church is that the kids have ALL afternoon to drive each other crazy. Sigh. The boys often get the FlipCam out to make one of their very interesting videos. They think they are hilarious and I sometimes do. Sometimes I find out that nearly a whole bottle of ketchup was used to cover their bodies as fake blood in my front room ON THE CARPET. I don't think that is very funny - I mean I do, but I'm the mom and I'm supposed to get mad about it.

James and Jacob particularly enjoy SCREAMING into the camera - usually with their mouths wide open and their uvula shaking in their throats. (I know words like uvula because I'm a vocalist and you need lift your uvula to seamlessly move from one high note to the next). Then they play it back repeatedly, so even though they have stopped yelling there is still yelling. They like to watch themselves flare their nostrils and bug their eyes out. I'm going to have some pretty decent blackmail footage when prom comes around :)

They take a random phrase like "it tastes great" and add their own accent to it and instantly it is the funniest thing ever and is said over and over. Jayson can parrot things back. So when Jacob was walking around screaming "AHHHHHHHH!!!!! It's a bear. AHHHHHH!!!! It's a bear." Jayson caught on.

Here watch (listen carefully):

It's loud, but we all agree that it's also adorable.

I'm not sure WHAT tastes great, but something does. The point of these series of movies as the boys explained was to just keep repeating the same phrase and they show a funny face. Truly my kids are going to be the next big thing in Hollywood.
