That's just krausen blowing up into the airlock. It's fine, just make sure it doesn't clog. You'll need to clean it out when it gets bad enough.
 
Yup, completely normal "blow off". There is risk that those airlocks clog up and leads to a mess once the pressure is relieved at once.

Look into making a blow off tube inside a container filled with starsan.

Happy brewing!
