I'm thinking "Have Mercy" is the quote of the day in the Wischmeier household! (Isn't that what Jessie used to say on Full House?) This morning started off a little bit crazy because three handymen were in our house doing some work for us, and that's always a little bit awkward for me. I guess I just don't feel 100% comfortable with complete strangers in my master bedroom, but I got over it. I have been trying to look busy, but it wasn't working.So I needed to go to the hardware store and pickup some things, I get the kids all ready in their seats, and the battery is dead! ARGG!! So the nice men help me out and jump my car, but apparently we have a funky battery so it took quite some time to figure out how to jump the thing, and then after it was running, we couldn't figure out how to get the hood to shut properly!! And 30 minutes later we were on the road. Mean while Little Mac is not feeling so hot, and he's super grumpy, so that's fun. We get home and things are going fine until I start the washing machine and it starts leaking all over the place... even into the kitchen... Oh man I don't want to deal with this!! Mac is super clingy and Abby is yelling at me to get her something... mean while I am on my hands and knees trying to keep the water in control. I shouldn't be complaining, I know that 100 other things could have gone wrong today, but the days not over, so we'll see.
On a good note, we have been doing some fun home improvements. We hired those handymen to come and install our pretty french doors, making a previous random open space into a fifth bedroom/guestroom. We love the final result, but we still have to paint them. We also have painted our laundry room. We painted it Hot Orange...and I LOVE it! It was quite the task to paint with the kids, but we got it done. Life is good in Houston, lately it's been pretty raining and not nearly as hot...thank the good man above!

I like the Hot Orange. It'll be something to laugh about in 30 years, though. "Can you believe those colors we used in the early 2000s!?" Our living room is kind of a Hot Mustard, by the way.
Looks good. The orange looks better on the walls than Abby's hair. Although it was really cute there too.
Great Job! I was just telling Mom & Dad your plans to put up the French Doors and create that extra room. It looks really good! Did you ever find a bed to go in there? It looked like there was maybe one sitting there. The Hot Orange is fun and suits AJ's personality perfectly! She's a fun gal! Love you all! Oh, Abby and AJ are making the exact same face in that picture! Cuteness.
Ow that hot orange is awesome! Wish I could get the grand tour. P.S. what did the apron you got look like? maybe we should send each other emails.
l o v e the orange. i think that all laundry rooms should be bright and cheerful!
