... at least he's potty trained!

Just when I think I might have some time to update my blog... something always seems to come up.

Wednesday evening I was getting ready to make dinner, Kaden came out and said, "went potty, mommy... Popsicle?!" he always wants a treat after going potty, I told him no, that I was making dinner and after dinner he could have a treat. Then I went down the hall and was immediately met with a huge surge of water. I yelled for Brianne to go get Jared. The toilet was overflowing, I turned off the water behind the toilet. We got every towel in the house, Jared had buckets throwing water into the bathtub. it was insane!!

My little Kaden had used at least a half roll of toilet paper. (he's been potty trained for a month, and has done really well, even at night!)

We saw our wood laminate floor already starting to bulge (Jared worked so hard and long on putting that floor in 3 years ago) I sucked gallon after gallon of water out of the carpet in the bedrooms with the steam cleaner. Jared ripped off all the baseboards. Water went under the walls into our master bathroom. It was a hopeless cause thinking we could save our floor. so called our insurance company... they sent emergency crews out that night. They were here til 11:30pm ripping up all the flooring (pretty sad watching them just rip out our wood floor in 2 minutes) and put in noisy hot fans in all the rooms to start drying everything out. here's a few pictures of how things look right now.

Master bathroom... they actually had to demo both bathrooms (everything but toilet and baths)
kids bathroom

our hallway. it was a 100 degrees in our house yesterday from the noisy hot fans. Last night we finally closed the vents in all the rooms that had the fans and closed the doors and put towels under the doors. then turned on the AC so we could sleep.
got a picture of the thermostat at 99 degrees (yuck) and it's so humid.

We're trying to look at the bight side... the bathrooms were next on our list of renovation projects. Also glad that Kaden still goes potty, cause he was super scared after flooding the house. I'll try and catch up the last month on Sunday.
