Good for you for figuring out #4 just four days in! It takes most parents years to figure that out.

Great tip on LeechBlock, too. I'm going to give that a try.

@paidtwice: True, we're talking two people at home right now. I honestly don't think one person at home, alone with two kids, can work except in small snatches. And small snatches are not conducive to REAL work – especially writing.

But if you fall prey to the doubleteam-parenting even two parents at home isn't enough. Right after I wrote this we had a doubleteaming day today and I accomplished almost nothing work-wise (although my son and I had a great day wandering from chilly park to park).

Neat post – I definitely agree with #16 – I keep telling my wife that the only way either of can get anything done is if the other person takes the kids for a couple of hours – preferably out of the house.
