House Cleaning

Why is that when I'm a working mother my house is always clean? Is it because no one is home during the day to mess it up? Probably.
I noticed that recently I cant seem to keep up with this house. Now mind you I am still living at my parents house in NM, but with 2 extra adults you would think the chores would be minimal. I seem to be cleaning the dang bathroom every 2 days because the boys can't seem to pee in the dang water. The babies play with everything except for the toys in the play room and laundry seems to always need folding. I remember a time when I only cleaned house on Saturday morning. I can also go back further in time and remember not having a dirty house at all. That was before the kids, and Dave and I both worked and ate out a lot.
I think first off I'm going to start putting cheerios back in the toilet to retrain the 8 and 6 year olds. Then if that doesn't work they are going to have to clean the bathroom themselves. oh and whats up with half of the toothpaste being all over the sink. Shouldn't it be on their toothbrushes? Second I think I'm going to donate all the toys to a shelter and give the babies card board boxes instead. Besides they play with the boxes the toys came in more then the actual toy anyway. And third I'm giving the boys 3 pairs of pants and 4 shirts. That should cut down on the laundry. Or maybe I should just say F*** it and just be happy I have something to keep me busy during the day.
