This isn’t the first time we’ve told you about some seriously honest parents. We shared this list of hilarious parenting tweets to make you laugh, and there was this dad who wrote “10 Things No One Ever Told Me About Having A Daughter.” But Father Simon Hooper from London isn’t only totally transparent, he’s totally hilarious!
Simon is Dad to 4 daughters, all under 10 years old; there’s a 9-year-old, a 6-year-old, and 10-month-old twins. He and his wife both Instagram their parenting journey with candid, clever captions.
“In general my whole account is to show a realistic view of what parenting is like from a parent’s perspective,”the dad told Huffington Post. “There is way too much sugarcoating when it comes to parents, so I wanted to share what it’s really like and provide a bit of humor at the same time.â€
Check out our favorite 15 from Simon’s Instagram below, and be sure to check out the brilliant captions!
1. Mobile human climbing frame
2. Human floor cleaners
“At least they do a good job of cleaning the floors, I should put Polish down and strap a rag to their stomachs. Might as well get them to pull their weight from an early age.”
3. He calls it the “dream feed,” because everyone else is asleep but he’s feeding the twins!
4. Daddy’s little assistant…
5. The twins are teething!
6. Somehow bath-time becomes an entire-family activity!
7. Help!
8. Meeting with the board.
9. “Outnumbered.”
10. Conflict resolution = hide the remote!
11. Putting “costume designer” on the Daddy-resume!
“Last night – ‘Oh daddy, remember to make our woodland themed costumes for school tomorrow!’ – Why is this the first I’m hearing about this at 8pm the day before you need them – I’m not some 24 hr costume design dept! Considered slapping a door mat on their backs and sending them off as hedgehogs”
12. Baby’s favorite game? Ripping out daddy’s chest hairs!
13. Stick to your edge, Dad!
14. “I basically live in this aisle of the supermarket now.”
15. But it’s all worth it in the end…
