Spider Pig

While sitting watching Saturday morning cartoons:

LilFoo: Mama! Mama! I got it!
Me: Got what?
LilFoo: "whatever a spider pig does"
Me: Oh! You did! "Spider Pig, Spider Pig, Does whatever a spider pig does"

No, he has not seen the Simpsons movie but they have had so many comercials with the Spider Pig scene that Lil'Foo caught on but couldn't put together all the words for the last part. Poor thing must have been milling over that for a whole week trying to get the words right in his head!! But he's persistant and it paid off. I am just happy to see that he stuck with something until he got it right, I don't care if it is a line from the Simpsons movie!!

Have you Ever....

Have you ever been in the bathroom of a plane when it has landed?
Have you ever been rushed out of the bathroom of the plane when it was about to land?

BigFoo and I have!
On our flights to and from Buffalo Lil'Foo had impeckable timing with his need to go potty. First with our flight from Minneapolis to Detroit Lil'Foo had to go pee after we had already started the decent. I ran him back to the bathroom and the flight Attendants (who were already strapped in for landing) told us to make it quick. I squeezed in the bath room with Lil'Foo and dropped his pants and underwear in one quick swoop and proceeded to try to rush him, knowing in my head that it wasn't going to work. After a few seconds Lil'Foo tells me that he has to poop too. GREAT! What else can happen? So by this time I can tell that we are really close to landing and I keep asking Lil'Foo if he's done and of course he's not. I then squish my body into a squatting position in the area that is left and hold on to Lil'Foo who is sitting on the potty with no clue in the world as to what is going on. We hit pavement and Lil'Foo was startled. I held on to him as he swayed side to side from the force of the plane landing, rolls of toilet paper and paper towels fell on my head. Lil'Foo now declares that he is done. (I have to say that the landing litterally scared the shit out of him! :) )

Now, you would think that an experiance like that would help a kid realize that there are good and bad times to go potty...Not my Lil'Foo!

On our way back home on our flight from Buffalo to Detroit (which is a really quick flight) Lil'Foo first decided that he had to go potty right when we were about to take off, but since he had just went in the airport we made him wait, and then once we were up in the air we forgot that he had to go (our first mistake). Then of course once we started the decent Lil'Foo REALLY had to go and he had to poop and we could tell that he wouldn't make it if he didn't go now. So this time BigFoo takes him back. As we start to get lower and lower I begin to worry and think that BigFoo would get to experiance the same thing that I had before. But this time was different. The Lead Flight attendant calls over the overcom that they need all passengers to be seated....2 seconds later she states it again. People start looking around to see who is missing from their seats...2 more seconds later and the flight attendant comes on again and now sounds frantic and says that all passengers need to be seated before they can land the plane and if they aren't then we will have to circle around. GREAT! My husband and son are AWOL and the majority of the other passengers are already late for their connecting flights! 2 more seconds later, the flight attendant comes running down the asile and then you can hear her saying "come on, hurry up, get into your seats" and then I see my Lil'Foo confused as all get out but yet with out a care in the world walking back to his seat along with a flustered BigFoo. They get seated and buckeled in and people are still looking at them so BigFoo says loudly "What am I to do? My kid had to go!" So we did land and didn't have to circle around and make others late and all was well, sort of :)
