I thought the next phrase was going to be "and lifted his leg in the air." I was glad to see he's not quite THAT fresh yet. :) <br /><br />Eek, what a day that was.rbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05909486143396450693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30880339.post-10612716849223748392009-05-13T20:12:00.000-05:002009-05-13T20:12:00.000-05:00If it makes you feel any better, I just bought a l...If it makes you feel any better, I just bought a leash for my Papoose, too! Only I DID by the backpack with the dog on the back. Hey, she's 18 months old, she likes dogs. And, more importantly, I'm growing increasing scared of the flight I have alone with her in a week. Judgmental stares or no, an airport is no place to screw around with a squirrelly (and fast!) toddler. Neither is a parking lot. I fully support your decision.<br /><br />The fact that he's turned it into a game...All I can offer is this: I read on someone's blog once that their kid was taking the pretending-to-be-a-dog thing a little too far. When the parents hit their limit, they started REALLY treating her like a dog: extra baths, no pets on the furniture, etc. You could try that?<br /><br />Good luck. :)feather nesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17778477468709093359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30880339.post-81238383435279104642009-05-13T17:42:00.000-05:002009-05-13T17:42:00.000-05:00Wow - what a scary story.

I feel like the combination of my child laughing at me while I was both horrified and scared for his safety would trip off some Crazy Ass Mom switch and there would be some angry words exchanged.
