I'm pretty sure that summers before kids usually meant road trips, campfires, and beach days. Don't get me wrong, we still do all of that, but things have changed just a little.

For all the parents out there spending this summer worried about pee in the pool, road trip snacks, and how much sunscreen a kid really needs, these pictures are for you!

Having kids hasn't taken ALL of her time - she still has plenty to set up all these photos!

Nope. You forgot the rubber duck. I can feel the tantrum coming.

I'm imagining that is hard cider and it is for the mom to be able to handle the kids

I love the look of exhaustion and terror and hopelessness on her face. That how summer is. I applause the teachers for putting up with our kids all year long they are amazing people!

i feel so guilty, in retrospect, for the size beach bag my mom used to haul to the beach. My dad carried the chairs and the enormous metal umbrella, and I complained about having to carry my own bag of sand toys. They told me flat out: if you want to play with them, you have to carry them yourself. I thought it was so MEAN. I'd completely do the same to any kid today. Just load them up like a tiny burro.

Going out with a baby is actually moving for a short term.

I always say it's because humans will let you know when they're hungry & thirsty. If my plants would remind me, I would be a better plant mother.

Being a kiddy pool, you never know what might be in there.
