20 of the Funniest Tweets From Parents This Week

Every time we go somewhere as a family afterwards my 22mo goes “that was fun!!” Today we got a Christmas tree at a tree farm and she literally cried the ENTIRE time, was miserable, had no fun. When we got in the car I was like “no way shes gonna say it” and then…”that was fun!”

My kid is having Pajama day at school and came out of his room wearing a red flannel bathrobe over a red flannel onesie with a stuffie snake draped over his shoulders like some kind of Canadian Hugh Hefner

Today is the day we traditionally put the Christmas tree and outdoor lights up. A day the kids affectionately call, “Swear Day.”

Children will see a neatly hanging dish towel and be like oh hell no.

My husband is friends with a fairly famous chef and it warmed my heart to know that this guy cooked his family a full Thanksgiving meal and his kids still appear to have eaten only buttered noodles. There was never a chance for any of us lol

Told the kids that I used to watch Rudolph but on VHS tape and my 6yo asked if that was around the time Christmas was discovered

9yo just revealed his strategy with regards to the distribution of the leftover pie: pumpkin is his favorite, but it's not anyone else's favorite, therefore he ate other types of pie first because he knows there will still be pumpkin leftover later.

me: *ordering an orange juice*

8yo: does it have pulp?

me: I'm not sure

8yo: *heavy sigh* guess I'll find out the hard way

I like to put up Christmas decorations in stages. This is the stage where I sit on the couch with snacks and stare at the boxes.

Helping in the kitchen this morning. So far I’ve used 467 paper towels.

Hi, I'm in the office but am in holiday mode until January 3rd. Please don't expect anything from me during this period.

The Elf on the Shelf should bring extra coffee for the parents who were up every hour with the child who just wanted to know if the Elf was here yet.

When I got pregnant, I did not think ahead to the moment 11 years later when I would have to stand on the edge of a football pitch in the pouring rain in December.

We've officially entered the portion of Thanksgiving break where all concept of time has been lost.
What day is it?
Is it still November?
Have the kids been home for a few days?
A few months?
Surely it must be December by now. Maybe it's already next year.
No one knows.
