De-cluttering

For the next ten days my family is taking care of my nephews.  They are ages 1 and 3.  Right away we realized that things were going to be challenging.  At ages 5 and 12, my younger daughters' room is NOT baby-proofed. 

I began to pick up and put up some things.  Then I realized that I hadn't fine through their stuff in a very long time.  I began filling the garbage can outside with the broken toys.  Then I noticed just the quantity of toys they have acquired in the last several months.  Yes, the clutter is overwhelming.

My husband and I are sorting, throwing away, and organizing the room.  Not only do we need it safe for two toddlers, but we just don't want to live in a cluttered mess. 

I'm thinking it is time for some permanent solutions.
