LITTLE SISTER INTERVIEW

It's been a year since the last time I attempted to interview the boys (on 'film') and I figured the recent news that we'll be adding a little girl to the family was reason enough to try it again. So I sat the boys down at the dinner table and setup my stuff to record the conversation.

Unfortunately the first attempt - which included the most raw and unscripted responses from the boys - had some technical issues and the audio was out of sync with the video. If you can watch it without being driven crazy by the un-sync'd audio, then I suggest it...It's pretty cute and hysterical.

But then I managed to get the technical issues under control, and I doubled-down and made a second attempt to ask the same questions of the boys. It went better than I expected it would, but it's not quite as original (obviously).

I'll be making both versions available for download from the website in the coming days, and will post links to them for your viewing pleasure. But in the meantime, I'll paraphrase some of the highlight comments from the boys for you right here.

Blane:
"I'll take care of her, and feed her, and she can sleep in my room. But I don't want to change any diapers."

Tobin:
"She'll take my swords! I don't want her to take my swords. But I've got lots of weapons. And if anyone tries to hurt her, I'll kill them."

What a pair of loving brothers, eh? Especially Tobin, willing to go to jail for his unborn sister. Way to go kid! (He definitely gets that temperament from his [pregnant] mother...she probably won't find this funny until after the pregnancy...)
