“Hi babies!” Travis says into the monitor in a video she recently posted to her Facebook page, It’s Judy Time. Upon hearing their mother’s voice, Miya and Keira, 18 months, freeze and drop to their mattresses in unison, pretending to snooze. The 11 seconds of footage has received nearly 16 million views and more than 20,000 likes, with Facebook commenters are calling it “hilarious” and the twins “baby geniuses.”

Travis, 29, a Seattle mom who vlogs under the name “It’s Judy Time,” told the New York Daily News that she checks on her kids through the monitor after she puts them down for their daily noon and 5 p.m. naps. When the girls were 6 months old, they became terrified to hear her voice through the gadget, so she now saves her bust-ins for special occasions.

“It’s just funny,” she said. “Every day it’s something hilarious and new and entertaining.”
