[quote=Anonymous]Pick your battles. Lots of good suggestions about supplies, you can fix that on your end. You don't need to lug the diaper bag around, but stash a handful of diapers and some wipes on the other side of the house from where you usually change the baby so you never need to walk on the floors, that's something you can fix. Ignore her favoritism of the baby - she's not in charge of childcare. The battles I would pick would be around the baby sleeping. Tell her as many times as necessary about the baby's nap schedule. If you go into the room to put the baby to sleep and she's cleaning, tell her to get out (nicely, but don't budge, don't let her finish, just shoo her out). Make it clear there is to be no vacuuming during that time. If she starts to turn on the vacuum, run right up to her and stop her. [/quote]
