My toddler told me my car was dirty without a hint of irony, as though she doesn’t consistently fling Cheerios around the backseat like rice at a wedding.

Baby pooped all over her clothes, toddler threw up all over his bedding, and I can’t put anything in the wash because we’ve trapped a mouse in the laundry room if you want to know how today’s going.

Husband left #Toddler on supervising level code *low* for a few minutes. Toddler got markers from high shelf and gave himself a full set of sleeves.
The shelf was very high. In a different room. On a different floor.
We are definitely expecting a letter from #Hogwarts

Is being exhausted all day from waking up at 5:30 enjoyable? No.
But is being exhausted all day from waking up at 5:30 and getting extra snuggles from my adorable toddler and the collection of stuffed animals he insists on carrying into bed with him totally worth it? Still no.

Here. Take these ear plugs. You’ll need them for all the loud toddler toys and screaming.

Just asked the toddler to pick up her toys but she told me she’s too tired and her back hurts. Wow, they really DO grow up so fast because suddenly she’s 67 years old.

While some people do Crossfit, some of us just put pajamas on toddlers.
Let’s face it, we’re all probably burning the same amount of calories.#Dadlife #Parenting

I love when strangers point out my toddler’s bruises and ask where they came from.
Ummm I don’t know they’re like small drunk people, it probably came from one of the 87 times they trip per day, Janet.

Me, to my toddler, who is knocking on the closed and locked bathroom door: “I’ve updated my privacy policy”
