I would take just five at a time, once a week, so it doesn't seem so expensive. Your husband only needs one per day, right? Then start ironing one per night. I used to leave the ironing board up in the TV area. Then after the kids went to bed, I would iron whichever shirt my husband was going to wear the next day. I only took the ironing board down when someone came over (not that often). Of course, the iron went out of the kids' reach each night. Eventually you will get caught up. With small kiddos, remember to break down every large, overwhelming task into small bits. You don't have to be superwoman, just super MOM! Enjoy them!

$45 for 30 shirts is a good price.

You could not pay anyone to do that. Even at $8.00 per hour.. It would take a person way more than 4 or 5 hours to iron 30 shirts...

Maybe just take 10 at a time...

Ummmm, your husband. And, no, I'm not kidding. At a minimum, he could take the kids while you iron.
