Mealtime, bedtime and every time in between––our kids keep us laughing. This week’s roundup of funny tweets is all about the hilarious trials of bedtime and the quest for some alone time (is five minutes so much to ask?), and it’ll have you laughing all the way through the weekend.
1. Easy as 1, 2, 3!
How to pose for a picture when you’re 5:

1. Make an expression like you just got caught stealing a car stereo.
2. Right when the photographer says, “Cheese!” blink and sneeze.
3. Run away as fast as you can because you only agreed to one picture.
2. Sorry, Cathy.

3. Gotta watch out for that yogurt.
If you want to watch someone have a complete meltdown because you handed them their yogurt the wrong way, then parenthood is definitely for you.

4. Oh, AMEN.
I’m not saying bedtime is hard.
— MomTransparenting (@momtransparent1) April 24, 2019
I’m just saying 14 back rubs, 3 bathroom trips, 9 stories, 2 songs, and 1 stroll to the kitchen for water isn’t exactly my idea of a “good time.”
5. A little uncomfortable?
Sometimes it makes me a little uncomfortable that we have one pot we use exclusively to boil pasta, cook pinto beans, and catch our children’s vomit

6. Go for the donut.
Being a stay at home parent often means having to make tough decisions quickly for instance today while the twins were watching peppa pig for 5 minutes I had to decide whether to eat a donut or some cake

7. #momsdayout
Just had six minutes alone while reclined in the dentist’s chair, waiting for the Novacaine to kick in.

It was the most relaxing moment I’ve had all week, in case you wondered what spring break with the kids home is like.
8. Sounds about right.
I have 4 children who need me to care for them, love them, encourage them, and tell them to go to bed 3,000 times every night.

9. Makes sense.
I’m a good person but…
— Momsense Ensues (@momsense_ensues) April 24, 2019
I skip a lot of the words, in books I hate, when I read to my kids.
10. Day 76 🤣
Day 76, Spring Break
— Ms. Havisham (@MissHavisham) April 25, 2019
Kids: We’re bored.
Me: Well, guess what? Today we’re going to a farm where you can bottle-feed baby pigs!
Kids: We don’t want to do that.
Me: YOU ARE GOING TO BOTTLE-FEED THOSE BABY PIGS
