Occasionally we put Toren in the Baby Bjorn between feeding and sleeping:
He’s small enough at this point that his arms are forced straight forward out of the Bjorn when he’s in it. After a few times of him riding around inside the Bjorn facing forward, I started to feel like he was the one controlling me. This got me to thinking that he’s kind of like a Dalek (from Dr. Who for those who aren’t sci-fi savvy).
So, we now call this “Dalek mode”. I’ll usually let him hold my fingers and I’ll walk around saying, “Exterminate! Exterminate!” (it’s funny if you know Daleks).
A better comparison is probably the little alien inside a human from Men in Black, but I don’t know the name for that alien and it’s not quite as memorable as the Daleks:

STOP COMPARING TOREN TO ALIENS!!!!! YUCK!!!! HE IS FAR TOOOOOOOO CUTE FOR THAT!!!! THOSE ALIENS ARE NOT LOVELY OR CUTE!!
Fair enough. But when you watch as much sci-fi as we do, it’s hard not to!
