Anyway, I put Gabe to bed and walked downstairs. Big UH-OH! There is water dripping from my living room ceiling! Okay, now I'm upset! Thankfully my awesome neighbors were outside so I sought their advice and company, very grateful not to be going through this alone! So there we sat in my living room watching the water drip and the ceiling bulge. I called the emergency maintenance guy and he told us to poke a hole in the ceiling so the water could drain out. So Josh put several holes in the ceiling (some of which were unintentional since his fingers just went right through the drywall when he touched it). The next morning the ceiling looked better since most of it had dried. Now we just need maintenance to patch the holes. It only took them 6 months to patch the last hole, I wonder how long it will take this time?

Splish Splash We're Taking a Bath!

Oh no!! Sorry, Rachel!! That is no good. The challenges of being a mom when Dad's gone, huh? Let is know if you need anything!
Oh I am so sorry to hear this. Leave it up to Lexi and Gabe....I will post my story later about what Lexi did.
Been there, but it wasn't the kids, turned on the water for Erika a bath, then walked out of the house and totally forgot!!!!!!
At least you weren't totally alone, we were outside :) Besides I think Josh enjoyed putting holes in your ceiling!
