I'm green with envy. I *told* Ray we should have a pony and a donkey
for
the grandchildren. ;-)

Is that a fair swop?

I think so. Have grandchild, willing to swap for pony and trap.

I don't believe you. Not for a millisecond.

Of course, the parents would have to agree.

Catch 'em after a bad night and you never know!

They have had bad nights ever since he was born. ATM I guess they'd take the
pony and trap and get down to making another one.

Babies haven't read the books. My youngest grandchild went out like a light
every night once her parents were persuaded to give her a tiny bit of solid
food, rather than just milk.

I knew a Polish woman who chewed sauerkraut and then fed it to her baby. I
don't
know if that is the norm in Poland.

I don't know about Poland specifically but it was the norm to chew food and
give it to babies, long before baby mush was invented in sterile jars!

Nobody told *her* she shouldn't have it, so
she loved it. ;-) Of course, then she started teething.......

They haven't thought of teething yet - luckily :-)

No, this one's a bit precocious on that and making heavy weather of it.
