FLY Lady and housework

I am trying soooo hard to clean the house up. I feel like for every step forward that I make, Andy drags me back three. The kid is a master mess maker.

He can't color with the crayons in the bin-- they must be dumped on the floor.

He can't pull just one book from the shelf-- they all have to come down.

He can't pick one Hot Wheels car from the case-- all 50 of them must be dumped out.

You currently have to wade through my living room.

He's obsessed with Joey's bouncy seat. Yesterday I left the living room for something. Joey was in the bouncy seat and Andy was on the floor. I returned to find Andy sitting ON TOP OF Joey in the bouncy seat.

Argh!

Hahaha, Lennon does the same stuff with his toys.

And he sits on cats.

How does he manage to keep the cat still long enough to sit on it?

The cats are just so shocked that he has turned around and planted his little butt on them that they can't move.

They probably don't think it's as funny as I do.

It'd be funnier if the little porker didn't weigh 35 pounds. He's gonna squish Cinnamon one of these days.

Hence, you can understand my concerns about him sitting on his little brother.

Oh yes, so you should let Joey grow his claws out.

I have just started with the FLY Lady and it's working for me so far. Granted my house is cluttered but not like TV news cluttered.

It seems like I always miss one when I'm cleaning up and then find it again in my bare feet at 3 am when I'm stumbling to the kitchen to make Joey a bottle.
