Like "Baby" 'snorting' . Sorry, I just couldn't resist jumping in with that. "Baby" was so funny -- everytime she didn't like something she was snort like a bull .... THEN she did something stupid ...... But, she always gave herself away with her "snorts" first. PATTI has started doing that now too (snorting) -- before she just DID something stupid (but usually you could 'catch' it in her eyes if you were looking straight at her) but I could almost always "talk her out of doing something stupid" ....... now she kinda' snorts first -- I can talk her "out of it" and she's fine. It's been a long hard haul with her but we've definately made progress. X blows through his nose when he gets a little upset - it's not a snort nor a nicker ..... just like he's blowing his nose .... Isn't it funny how they all have their little ways?? --- * Origin: "Baby" - Gone But NOT Forgotten!!

Yep ....... he acts the same with either carriage -- it doesn't seem to matter to him which one we drag out for him to pull along.

(Sorry, couldn't resist a Polish joke ). We have his first "job" coming up in April - a Spanish birthday party (well, not really the "party" part - we have to take a 15yr old to and from the church). They saw us in the parade last Saturday and called us today to see if we would do (or could do) it. I told them "yes" but 1/2 the $$$ would have to be paid by the middle of March (non refundable) ...... they agreed with no problem. I'm charging $150 per hour with a 2 hour minimum -- PLUS, a $50 travel expense because we have to go over 25 miles to get there (actually, it's about 35 miles total).
