Dinner Entertainment

So, here is a short video of our new dinner entertainment. The boys have done something like this the past couple of nights. If anyone can figure out what they're doing (or what they're saying), please, please, please let us know!!!



They are doing really well eating at the table. They will even start to pull their chairs over to the table if we haven't already done it. More eating at the table has also created the need for a "not at the table" list, which continues to grow. Some of our favorites: 
Don't eat like cookie monster. He makes a big mess. Eat like Elmo instead. (Not really sure how Elmo eats, but he's not as messy!)
Don't act like monkeys (accompanied by very shrill monkey sounds).
Don't hang upside down in your chair.
Don't hit your brother. (or) Hands to yourself.
No "Ready, Aim, Fire" at the table.
... 
I'm pretty sure this list will continually grow longer and longer. It is kinda odd sitting like a family at the table for a meal though. Kinda nice too! Now if only we could increase the number of 'toddler approved' items on the menu!!!

Towards the end, Alex looks like he's imitating Shatner in some scene from Star Trek, when the Enterprise is fired upon. I always wondered why Captain Chairs didn't have seat belts.

That made me laugh! Too funny. They all seem to know the "rules" to whatever game they are playing :)
