Flooded.

Maybe you’ve heard that half of Indiana is underwater. It kind of is.

When my sister was visiting from Utah she didn’t take a shower because one day Cody used what she thought was too much water to wash the dishes. I don’t think she realized the difference in climates.

None of the water came into our house or did any damage. The rest of Indiana wasn’t so lucky. Thanks for all the concern, and the occasional freak out. (HI DAD! Sorry I didn’t call, I forget you watch the news. xoxo)

  1. Glad the moosh family hasn’t washed away. Still loving on the third pic from the top, the one of the moosh doing her Rockette impression in the water. She has a cool mommy to let her play in puddles!

  2. Who has the time to let parents know everyone is safe during a sensitive time like this?? Come on, isn’t it more important to let blog world know what kind of “hooker” you are! I for one am glad that your house isn’t flooded. (You for sure wouldn’t have time to post!)
    Oh, I am and always will be a “under wired, back hooker”.

  3. I was wondering if the flooding was affecting you. I am glad to hear it hasn’t flooded into your home!

    That flooding is everywhere. My previous residence before SLC, Des Moines, is flooded, included a street TWO BLOCKS from my old digs– which was a basement in a house! And there was this tiny town in Northeastern Iowa not far from where I grew up- tornado ripped most of it apart, now flood is washing the rest of it away.

    Welcome to the Midwest!

  4. Great pictures!
    We’re an hour south where most of the town was decimated, hospital evacuated, etc. Luckily we’re dry, but only by 2 blocks. The flash flood warning that’s now beeping through Sesame Street has me concerned again.

  6. When I lived in South Carolina, my mom called every time she heard about a hurricane or flooding in the Carolinas. I don’t know how many years until I trained her to look at the map before she freaked out. Especially if I forgot to call or return a call…

  7. The pictures of your little girl playing in the water are adorable.

    We are in central IL and our basement flooded due to all the rain. It’s a flipping joy being a homeowner. I don’t have any one to call to fix the problem.

  8. Yikes…what a wacky spring. We woke up Sunday morning, from the tornado that ripped through at 2:30 in the morning, to a huge tree branch in our backyard – knocked down most of our fence, tore off part of our garage and broke part of our deck… Mother nature, man, she wins again!

  9. I don’t watch the news either. It takes me days to get info. In fact, I had no idea it was flooding in fabulous Indiana.

    Congrats on the rain! Looks like moosh is having a blast!

  10. I hate to be the one to do this. . .but do you know how GROSS the water your baby is splashing in is? Every fuel leak, every speck of cat poop, every gallon of pesticide sprayed, and every backed up sewer is IN THAT WATER. Water that she is probably splashing into her mouth and then using her cute fingers to touch her mucous membranes with. . .andandAND- please give her a bath. With really good soap. The Moosh is too cute for cholera.

    Ok- I am now finished being my mother. The only reason I know that stuff is because when I was a kid and my littel corner of the midwest would flood (um, yearly) and I would want to “go swimming” and I’d get that lecture, so I’m just doing what has been genetically pounded into me. sorry.
