"Laura, get in here!"

Yesterday, we went to pick up Aunt Laura at her house on our way to see a model train exhibit.
In case you're not a regular visitor to our house, suffice it to say, Aidan is a BIG fan of trains...

So we pull up into the driveway outside Laura's house and Aidan's all over it.
"There's Laura's house. There it is. Where's Laura?"
And we're explaining to him that it might take her a few minutes to come out.

Well, this didn't sit well with Aidan, who clearly thinks we're all living on Aidan Standard Time (AST). So, from his car seat (and I wish I'd had a camera handy to catch this), he cranes his neck and starts saying, in gradually elevated tones, "Laura! Laura! Come on out, Laura! Get in this van, Laura! Get in here!"

New video clip

Okay, yes.
After a bit of frustration, we've really got the new video of Aidan and Bryce (though, let me say again it is only 19 seconds long) posted on the .Mac website.

Enjoy!

"I'm gonna count to three..."

Aidan overheard me telling Bryce to come back in from the garage-- Bryce had scooted through the door while I went out there for something and he was reluctant to relinquish this new found freedom.

Aidan, wanting to be helpful, decided to add his authoritative voice to the conversation...

"Brycey, I'm going to count to three... one.. two.. three, get out that garage!"

[see the videographic proof (19 seconds in length, Quicktime format) on the .Mac site, available momentarily.]
