Subway Shuffle

I took the subway on the way back from work last night. I was standing next to a Latino woman and her children, including a 2 or 3 month baby* in a pram**. I was, as always, listening to my iPod, which at this point happened to be playing Slow It Down (Mathilda Mix)

The baby was starting to wake up, and was starting to stretch and yawn, and wave it's arms and legs about ,,, weirdly enough, in time with the song in my head. From my perspective, it looked like the baby was dancing, and I gotta say, he had some mad skillz!

Yeah ... that baby danced like me. But he was definitely cuter. And better.

* What's the difference between baby, infant, toddler, and child? I know it has something to do with the age of the person, but I can't remember what the distinction is.
** What's the difference between a pram and a stroller?
