I'm a stay at home mom to a 5 year old and 2 year old twins. Life is what all parents will say, "hectic." 

These pictures sum up parenting without really needing a title. Someone is usually crying or making a mess. Every once in a while, everyone is even happy.

    At least they didn't "open them". As long as they stay that flat you can put them away. My little one did the same thing but did even unfold them...

    My pediatrician had a great solution! Cut the feet off of footie sleepers and put them on backwards so the zipper is in the back. Then the kiddo can't get the sleeper off to get to their diaper.

    OMG, we had one of those racks with the cloth bins. Our 3yo destroyed it. I mean he literally pulled it apart to bits to where it was totally unsalvageable. I hope this one is more heavy duty!

    I tried that as well. We made the 3rd bedroom into the playroom & just put both babies in the nursery together. That didn't work at all. Not only could we not get into the playroom cuz of all the toys but my older boy would continuously wake the baby cuz he wanted to play. We ended up moving the baby back into the former playroom & just distributing the toys among the 2 rooms.

    You need to remove a lot of those toys when they are sleeping or not around.

    I had packed everything out of reach and would give one-two set of toys at a time. When done it had to be packed back up in it's storage box and handed in before being given another. I started early, 2-3. If I was around for the play time, things changed, we'd take out more toys at a time, of course I packed them all back up after.

    It is a normal sized bedroom. I dare not take a pic of the whole room 'cause a fire martial might be knocking on my door! lol I clean it, they destroy it within minutes.

    It takes a person who has never had to children to say that. This is a realistic look at how it is to be a stay at home mom, a job that in today's world is underappreciated and looked down upon as not being a full-time job. It may be stressful and at times you just want to sit in a room and cry but thats part of being a mom. No mother has a home that is perfection, no mother has never had poop on her hand or gum in her hair or a child that has marker or food or throw up on them. I'm sure even your mom when you were growing up went through the same thing. But the rewards of being a parent far out way all of the gross chaotic moments along the way. Do not judge someone that has given us a look into their daily lives, if people didn't let us see how things trully are, people like you would just keep having the unrealistic view of how it is to be a parent.
