First time Mom vs us with too many kids

Yesterday I took the kids to McDonalds for lunch. I had the twins and Millie. As we sat at the table, in the Playground of the Germs, I watched a mom with two little ones come lugging in her luggage for her short visit to the playground. She had her toddler who was probably a bit over two and then a baby who was probably about 8 months old. First she walked in, set down the baby carrier, diaper bag, high chair cover, purse and sippy cup. She immediately told the little one not to touch anything and pulled out her container of Clorox wipes and proceeded to wipe down the table, and the bench, and the underside as far as the munchkin might be able to reach his short little arms. Then she found a high chair and, you guessed it, wiped it with a wipe, THEN put the seat cover on it and THEN put the baby in the high chair. She then opened a bottle of water and poured it into a sippy cup for the baby to drink. Then her friend arrived with her two kids, one about 2 and one about 4'ish. She assured her friend that she had wiped off the table and seats, as the friend promptly starts to put away HER container of wipes, not needing to steralize the environment first. So Mom A goes out to get their food, comes back in, then Mom B goes back out to get food for her family. Then the food prep beings. They both lay out the burger wrappers, take the burger off the bun and break it into pieces appropriately sized for a gnat (even for the oldest boy) the buns were discarded. Then they open the empty cups from the counter and pour in the apple juices, 1/2 full, and then dilute with water from home. I must admit that I was shocked to see they actually got french fries for the kids.
So, the kids all sit and eat, then get up and enter the Germ Ground. They play. Then they return from the tubes of tiny bacteria and return to the table where Mom B promptly puts sanitizer on their hands before they are allowed to touch anything. This repeated several times through out the meal. The baby lost her sippy because she dropped it on the floor, it was then requiring proper sanitizing before she could have it back, so she went thirsty.
I had to chuckle I remember when Harrison was little, I always though "Oh my gosh, what AWFUL parents! Not only do they feed the kid McDonalds, but they let them actually go into the playground!"Then there were the parents who let their kids go into the playground while they stood out and ordered food! Didn't they realize there was a fire door that someone could take the child out and you would never see them again?? Well, then I had twins and the McDonalds playgrounds became a necessity because it was a great energy outlet for Harrison, someplace that I could have the twins in their strollers, hopefully sleeping, and he could run like a madman. Watching these two young Mom's I had to keep from laughing to myself. I had to realize how far I have come.
Example: I can meet my friend at McD's with her kids, we can send them all into the playroom ("watch Millie!") and we stand and order and fill drinks and occassionally look over our shoulder to make sure no one has snuck out the door and is playing in traffic. Millie ate her food yesterday on a napkin, which sat directly on the table top, it did occassionally touch the actual table, which had not been properly sanitized!
Then, as I watched them get ready to leave, I thought to myself about how my kids are probably healthier than theirs are. My kids aren't the type to catch every little thing and miss a lot of school. I am one of those horrible mom's who lets her kids play in the dirt, occassionally I even have to rinse the tub after bathtime to get all the sand out of the bottom. I let them drink from the hose, play at McDonalds, go to parks etc.
I think the funniest part was the hand sanitizer between bites and playing, that is what got me the most.....
