i'm sorry, but that was soo funny. you crack me up. i would've screamed and then cried. what were you thinking :) you have the perfect personality to raise twins. i'm jealous :) i wish i had your patience.
Em, I have that same little bucket that I use to paint, and I have projects that have been waiting to be painted for a year!! And I hate the prep work of painting, I am constantly cleaning up AFTER the mess rather than prepare BEFORE. It is just too hard to use your precious time in prep work. I totally understand! But, please tell me you salvaged the floor, the crib...and well, the clothes...even I know NOT to wear nice clothes while painting, so sorry, can't help you there! You are super funny!
I'm so sorry. That is sooo frustrating. Why is it that being a mom is one step forward, two steps back?? I guess that the important part is that we keep taking that step forward. Your awsome! Good Job on your intentions!

My mom always told me that "Lazy people always work the hardest." Turns out she was right.
Lila was at a birthday party this afternoon and since my mom is visiting (more on that later) and was here to take care of the babies, I thought, "I'll finish painting the kids bedroom door" (which I started painting 2 months ago...)
Anyway, I got out my little bucket of paint and started painting. Let's just say that I didn't make all of the necessary preparations. I ended up spilling my bucket of paint all over the floor, a crib, my favorite pair of jeans, my favorite tennis shoes, the bookshelf (and a few books), the fan, a slipper, and more... ughhh...
[Image][Image][Image] I mean seriously, what was I thinking??
"Lazy people ALWAYS work the hardest." Story of my life!
p.s. the worst part is, I didn't even finish painting the door.
"Lazy people..."

Why didn't you tell your mom to bring your dad, then he could have done the painting, I am so smart.

I LOVE that you have enough of a sense of humor to take pictures before cleaning up....
