4. Dr. Google (or Yahoo)

the only thing worse than seeking medical advice on yahoo answers about your baby is probably being that baby

5. Solution: Fight with them!

One of many fallacies of parenting is believing that when they're teens they won't fight about things like who pushes the elevator button.

Me: Why not?

PTA: You kept yelling "Sweep the leg"

11. Pure genius.

I construct complex pillow mazes for my daughter to nap in –
this way, she gets worn out and falls asleep as she's trying to crawl out

12. Hmmm… no.

[getting kids ready for school]

"A screwdriver?! For what?"

5: I just wanted to fix my own hair.

13. Don’t taste it to find out.

I can't tell if I have poop or peanut butter under my fingernails. Both are totally possible given my morning. #nannying
