Getting it Done

Parents of multiples become very clever at "getting it done." By that, I mean all the little details of life: housework, paying bills, taking a shower, running errands, exercising, etc. When your time and attention is so consumed by babies, it is difficult to complete even one of these tasks in a day, much less all of the items on the lengthy to-do lists of modern moms and dads. .

How do you get it done? Do you hire part-time help? Cram it all in while the babies nap? Make use of baby equipment like play yards, bouncy seats, swings? Play tag team with your partner, so that one has baby duty while the other has house duty?

Here are some tips for getting it done that I've compiled from emails and posts in the message forum.
