Cakevin

My 3yo was struggling to put her shirt on, so I told her she was very capable and she said “no, you’re cakeable!”

Is she gonna turn me into a cake?

My 8yo has his friend over for a play date and I’m not convinced I’ve heard the word “bro” this many times in my life

I asked my daughter if she had a good day at kindergarten and she said “yeah, I didn’t yell at anyone!” Sounds like everyone else had a good day too!

But when I go to pick them up from after school daycare, they don’t want to leave! They’d rather keep colouring or hanging out with their friends. I’m forever convincing them to do the opposite of what they want to do.

There’s a daily battle to get my kids out the door for school. They don’t want to get their shoes on. I have to convince them that the temperature is below freezing to get their jackets on. They’re suddenly possessed by the irresistible urge to dance.

You lucky duck!

I taught my kid every dance move I know and that's why he's a terrible dancer as well

The key ingredients to a great meal

Interesting choice 😂

My 3yo is playing restaurant with me and she’s asking me what I want to eat. She grabbed a few toys to use as food options she’d cook and here’s what’s on offer:
1. Triceratops
2. Police officer
3. Sprinkles
4. Antibiotics

My 2yo thinks not wearing shoes or socks is called “doing bear feet” because bears don’t wear shoes. DO NOT EXPLAIN TO HER SHE IS WRONG EVER.

Easy peasy

That's pretty solid advice

“don’t put a baby in the toilet!” - words of wisdom from my son (almost 4) at 6:35 AM

It’s so hard to watch

Waiting for my kid to get ready in the morning is like watching a sloth in slow motion

Saving this one

I may have accidentally called one of my kids by a pet's name in the past...

She likes to keep me guessing

Balance

Good morning my children just came to me and politely asked if it was ok if they tied a rope to a houseplant and swung it around.

Please tell me you said yes!

Nobody trusts Kristin

They somehow find a way to eat more

“I don’t want stickers on anything” says my 3yo who puts stickers on everything

My kid finished his weekend homework on a Thursday, therefore making me look like a great parent, so I needed to tell everyone about it because I may never experience this high again.

I tried offering my 3yo some carrot slices. I even called them carrot chips to make them sound more enticing. She was not fooled by my shenanigans and will not be eating any carrots.

We went to a theme park today and walked past one of the games. My kid said “Oh, I know that game! It’s a scam!” I don’t know how he knew that, but I’m sure he was right.

Close enough!
