Default A Classic 2 Year-old Story...

So today my pregnant wife took our 2-year old son on a flight down to Southern CA to visit her mom....using Airways bennies.

Halfway through the flight he insisted he had to go to the bathroom, so after the 3rd time, she gave in and took him into the spacious lav. After a successful bathroom visit, she was having a hard time getting his "big boy" diaper back on, so she stood him on top of the toilet and was sort of bending over to get his diaper on. She couldn't figure out what that dinging noise was and was especially surprised when the FA's were knocking on the lav door asking if they were alright...you get the picture. Nate was pressing the FA button over and over so they thought there was an emergency..

Classic. 2 year olds are craaaaaaaaaazy.

Didn't know you could call the FAs from the lav.

Great story. You be sure to tell him that story when he's older...
A little off-topic, but the Q lavs have a diaper changing table on the wall over the toilet. GREAT invention!

Seriously? There's a call button like the ones over the seats.

...and becomes a pilot. Make sure you tell the story in front of his captain and all the pretty FAs.

One of the best things about being a parent.....spilling the beans on an embarrassing episode in your child's life to their friends and/or significant others (when they get 'em)! Cruel, I know---but FUN, nonetheless!

My parents just made the jump to the 21st century and put a few of my shining moments on YouTube.

They didn't?! Although come to think of it, it's not a bad idea...too bad I don't know how to do it and I doubt my kids would help me!

She was on an Airbus that has that little table as well, but he doesn't fit!! She can normally just change him standing up, but it was rather difficult in that tight space, especially being preggo.

That sounds like something my 2yo would do as well.....and my 14mo. He is at that phase where he is obsessed with buttons. He'd have the time of his life in a cockpit.

I think its harder to be pregnant and have a toddler than it is having 2 kids.
