hurricane Z

i was in my closet. scanning a full closet of clothes, in which i can't find A THING to wear!! (sound familiar?) when i hear squealing from downstairs. charile is inside the slider door. z on the outside. the inside is soaked. he sprayed the hose on full blast inside the door. :( oh joy. he is a one man demolition derby. he destroys things i wouldn't think could be destroyed! (the other day. grandma mary brought over a jar of jelly. i found it dumped on the couch. !!! WHAT!@?) this morning, i found his footprints in baking soda, on the kitchen floor. i also found a cup with syrup in it, next to an open bottle of syrup. grandma mary also cleaned off some paint from our dining room chairs the other day. thank you grandma!!  next thing i know, i grab a seat on the train (chairs lined up for a train ride), the seat was covered in wet orange paint. & he also has this oral fixation. he is TWO & he bites his nails. he bites everything. this morning alone. he was biting a dvd, dominos, little people, the water bottle lid. ...oh, & he steals gum. he will eat a whole piece then swallow it & laugh cuz he knows he shouldn't!!...

okay. he just came up to me & said "me pooped." he has no diaper on...guess i'll go on a treasure hunt...

good news. poo was in the toilet~

so. z's teeth (bottom two in front) are definitely discolored. (CRAP!) over a month ago i think i mentioned he had an incident on the stairs. & he still says his mouth hurts. the dentist (we took him in a couple days after the fall) said he should be okay, the tendons may tighten back up (they were loose). they did tighten back up. but the dentist also said there is a chance they will become discolored & fall out. WHAT?!?!  OMG. boo. hiss. i have been watching them closely. & kept telling myself i am just paranoid they are discolored. but you know what. they ARE!!!  so sad. i think it happened before june 14. cuz that is when the tooth fairy got a note from charlie. & they both had loose bottom teeth at the same time!
we are waiting for charlie's other to fall out too. it is quite loose now. i thought it would go a few days ago.
on the upside. picked another 24lbs of blueberries today. so that was nice.

More pics from the laddieland trip. These we took from the iPod. & I just realized I could upload directly. Dork, I know !

E coli outbreak in Portland. & Izzy has puked (rather impressively I might add) twice now. 2 am, then again around 2 pm. & he has the runs. I am not panicked. I am not panicked. I am Not panicked.

Sitting next to the runway. Just watched a cargo plane & five fighters take off! WOW!!!!!  dad says just training today. Phew. I was praying they all come back.
