On Friday while I was holding Slade getting ready to feed him he projectile vomited...no warning or anything. I mean this stuff shot across to the other side of my king size bed, all over him, all over me and up into my eyebrows!!!! Wow-poor baby! He smiled as soon as it was over but I was a lil freaked out so I called the Dr and took his temp which was 99.1. The Dr called back and told me that unless his fever spiked or it continued to happen it was prob a fluke thing and it was OK. He was fine the rest of the day although he did have an explosive poop diaper at Target that evening so I decided not to worry. That Target poop must have opened the flood gates cause the next morning he woke up with super runny poop. 2 days later he still has the super runny poop so my guess is a lil touch of the stomach flu but thank goodness he has no fever and is still super happy and smiles every time I talk to him. The reason for that story is because I was in the process of getting ready to change him and feeding him pedialyte when Bella came bursting into my room and announced that there was toilet water everywhere. I asked her if they had splashed it or if it coming out of the toilet and she told me the toilet was going crazy. I put Slade down and ran to the other room to discover the toilet was indeed going crazy!!!! I quickly shut off the water...(something I learned in Florida because this is not the first time this has happened to us!) and called my mom and then Christina. I changed my poor son and started cleaning it up with the small wet/dry shop vac we have. There was about an inch of standing water and carpets going into the 2 bedrooms and the living room were soaked with water about 1.5 feet into the rooms. After Christina got alot of the water soaked up I had to shampoo carpets! This has really been a fun filled wknd with discovering a dead mouse in Aubrey's kitchen, Aubrey's dog being in heat, running errands with 5 kids and the toilet water attempting to play "Katrina" in my house!!!! I think I heard my house and dishes crying for Celia the other day begging for her return! Aubrey says she is going to write a book called Deployment Moments and that my toilet water incident will get its own chapter!!!
P.S. SORRY NO PICS...COULDN'T FIND THE CAMERA IN THE CHAOS!!!!
P.S.S A BIG THANK YOU TO ISAAC LEWIS FOR LEAVING ME HIS WIFE(CHRISTINA) DURING THIS DEPLOYMENT...I COULD NOT HAVE SURVIVED WITH OUT HER!!!!
