Hi Lynne. Welcome and hope you enjoy.
Reveal to me the mysteries
Can you tell me what it means?
Explain these motions and metaphors
Unlock these secrets in me
Describe the vision, the meaning is missing
Won't anybody listen?

I can't speak to the husband part, but I played MUCKs with a baby on my lap for about 11 years. Eminently doable :-)

Wouldn't the baby have green eyes by now? *grins*

Not the same baby...five different ones over an elapsed time of 11 years.

I tried Cantring with my daughter on my lap and she kept hitting the keys, so, didn't work for me.

Me either, my 20 month old kept hitting random keys, or would hit enter before I was ready....doesn't work well at all.

hmmm...maybe it's only me that is unusual for having a longer reach than a baby.... baby in lap, seated an arm's length away from the desk, one arm wrapped around them, and the other typing.

I've solved this problem by not having a baby.

Maybe get a baby a smaller keyboard to distract them?

We got him a leap frog laptop thing that is pretty cool. It's funny to watch him sit there and tap away while we are on the computer.

Believe it or not, they know decoys don't work, so they don't play with them. They want the one you're using.
