How do you guys manage to get things done around the house and yard with no help with the kids?! My husband and I can’t…

I know it sucks and it’s the last thing you want to do at the end of the day, but 8:30-10pm is my “rage cleaning” time. Both of my girls are tornados. Also in the summer we try to be outside as much as possible which helps. Hang in there, we’ll miss it someday.

We work during nap and have three sandboxes on the property. They have to be occupied and interested. There are toys that only stay in those sandboxes so he only gets them there.

I had two under 5 at 18 😂🤷🏼‍♀️ I did what I need to I guess

Going through the same thing....

I do my cleaning at night... get dinner ready while my younger daughter sleep.

We put our tots to bed at 6pm 😆 and then do yard work and housework after.

Routine and organization. They all have chores even the littles. We play lots of music during the day to keep us moving and off the tv and electronics. My DH and I alternate errands and chores or do them together with the kids.

I do agree with trying to relax and enjoy the chaos! They will never be this little again but you will have a clean home again, when they’re gone living their lives.

I’m a single mom to a 7 yr old, 2yr old and an almost 5 month old. Routine is key. Keep on top of things as much as possible. If you clean as you go it’s easy to keep it up. Your 4 yr old is old enough to help with picking up toys, putting shoes away, dusting etc. get him involved. Put the 1 yr olds in the pack and play with some toys while you clean. It’ll get easier.

Clean when they’re sleeping 🤷🏼‍♀️ I have 3 boys 5 and under and it’s just me ... they’re all in bed and baby is sleep by 9:00pm

Enjoy your beautiful babies at this age bc it won't last long. Let things go for now, lower your expectations. Before you know it they will be more independent and then you can do that stuff again.

If you really can't wait & have to get it done, then you can have one person work while the other watches the kids & take turns. You can also use a pack & play type of thing outside for the littles...there are many options these days. We don't have help with our kids, no sitter, no dates, we just always managed. The 4yr old can definitely be involved in the process & be a big helper.

Adorable picture! I can’t believe all the kids are looking and smiling. I have my hands full with two I can’t imagine. I think having two that are so young it’s going to be hard. You should give yourself so time. As they get older it’ll get easier.

It gets easier with time. Give them a couple of years and it will all be different. For now just go easy on yourself and try not to stress.

I definitely feel this in my soul . I noticed I have my good days and my bad days . My good days is we’re I can nurse my baby and than she naps or if she doesn’t she’s content just playing with her rattles . And than my oldest will either color play dough or just her tablet. When things are rough and the baby is fussy I do the bare minimum cook meals and keep the girls alive
