In a hilarious series of videos, uncles and their nieces seem to be having the time of their lives without the girls' parents.
Uncles often tend to be cool and supportive figures in their nieces or nephews' lives. But somehow, parents think twice before letting these "uncles" babysit their kids if they do not have their kids of their own. After all, parents know how uncles can get a bit "mischievous" in the company of kids. They would likely be the one who allows the little ones to have as much candy as they want and leave the poor parents to deal with the ensuing sugar rush. The funniest part is that they participate in the kids' shenanigans as well. And there's no denying that these uncles are probably super fun to be around. One such uncle named Jimmy Steele–who goes by @iamjimmmysteele on Instagram–captured this in a fun video with his two nieces that he shared with the title, "POV: When you ask the uncles with no kids to babysit..."
The hilarious video had the two uncles, Jimmy and Wayton, dancing with their nieces, one in blue clothes and the other one in pink, to the trending song, "I am looking for a man in finance, trust fund, six five, blue eyes," where a woman describes the characteristics she is looking for in a man. They explained the reason in the caption, "Uncle Jimmy and Uncle Waylon offer dating advice after hearing rumors of a possible boyfriend from the playground. Aim for the trust fund girls. Also... that eye-roll from Emmie."
The video starts with the older girl standing right in front of the camera and enthusiastically starting the dance as three people follow behind her. Then, it was the turn of the sassy younger sister, who completely nailed the expressions and moves. The girl also did an iconic eye roll that her uncle talked about in the caption. Eventually, it was time for the uncles to take center stage and they did not disappoint. At the end of the performance, the girls came in front once again and threw multiple dollar bills at the camera, reiterating what they were looking for. The performance was originally choreographed and performed by @thewilliamsfam and Garrett Clayton (@garrettclayton1).
The video received over 22 million views. People took to the comments to share their thoughts on the fun dynamic the uncles and nieces share. @haleyrenaesalazar wrote, "The eye roll is giving future hedge fund hottie energy. She will be the man in finance's boss." @nainailove21 commented, "I'm sorry, uncles, but they showed y'all up, lol. They didn't come to play. That eye roll was serious and Miss Red gave us future boss vibes." @ohheymsvargas remarked, "The eye roll represents all the broke boys that tried to talk to her in the playground. She's sick of them." @crissey_kinz93 shared, "They literally will remember and cherish these moments their entire lives. I live for my memories with my uncle before he got sick and passed." @thedailymomma03 expressed, "Oh my god, the little girl in the pink leotard... her expression in the beginning."

As it turns out, this particular video was not a one-time thing. In another video, with the same title as the first one, one of the uncles performed with the two nieces on "Hold My Hand" by Jess Glynne. In the video, the uncle is seen sitting on a chair with what looks like a champagne bottle. His older neice comes dancing and hands him a glass. As the uncle pours the champagne into the glass, another niece hands him a glass of juice to mix with the champagne. The older girl twirls in with a baby and hands her uncle a straw while the younger one feeds him a pineapple. Steele wrote in the caption, "Let's go to brunch girls!"
