Olympic theme song…now with words
May 10th, 2010
Siena (and now Elliot, too) has been singing non-stop a song she picked up from school last week.
What you don’t hear, because Matt cut off the camera to help, are the cries of, “My booty…ow, ow, OW…my booooteeeeeee.”
I would just like to add, in case it seems callous to post a video of my child falling down and hurting her booty, that this short clip has become our household’s most popular form of entertainment over the last few days, with Siena herself usually being the one to request another viewing. They both laugh themselves silly at the part where she falls down.
I would also like to point out the more subtle hilariousness of what Elliot is doing at the beginning of the video — carefully rifling through Siena’s backpack looking for Tic-Tacs or pieces of gum that might have fallen out of their packages and gotten lost in the bottom of the bag. The only reason he is getting away with this is because she is too busy singing and marching around to notice.

I had to watch this 10 times and LAUGHED OUT LOUD. This is so my five year old.

Did my darling Siena recover?

She is just fine now, and very pleased with being to watch the footage whenever she wants.

Poor Siena! Glad she sees the humor in it now though. She is such a bird – to fall that hard on a plastic bug cage and not break it – seriously impressive. My favorite is the explanation of what Elliot is doing – also, who is Siena singing to on the phone? They must have freaked when they heard the blood-curdling screams on the other end!

Sara – it’s my old cell phone (non-functional) that she uses to make pretend obnoxious prank calls involving loud repetitive singing. She often fake-calls Tyler, actually.

She can make REAL calls to Avery and they can sing together. Can’t you just picture it?!

I don’t even know that Olympic Theme Song but I sang the blasted tune in my head all day.
Glad Siena mended well.

Is it wrong that I’m laughing at poor Siena right now?
