If you never saw the TV show, An Idiot Abroad, you seriously missed some funny stuff. The basic premise was that Ricky Gervais sent his friend, Karl Pilkington, to cool destinations (Rio, Egypt, China, etc.), however, unbeknownst to Karl, Ricky had already planned to make the trip an absolute nightmare something Karl would never forget. Hilarity ensued, and you couldn’t help but feel bad for Karl and all the crap he went through.
Welcome to raising kids. There are no warning labels, and of course nobody feels bad for us. Nor should they, it wasn’t exactly an accident. But is it is certainly something we will not forget.
Our lives are now controlled by the whims of a toddler, and just as Karl had no clue what shenanigans his “friend” had in store for him, we never quite know what will happen from one moment to the next.
These are just 7 reactions to a toddler doing toddler things, exemplified by Karl during his various adventures.
1. When we desperately try to understand the gibberish coming out of her mouth.
2. The exact reaction when they take a crap nap of 40 minutes.
3. Our reaction (and their utter confusion) when we get overly excited that they did something non-toddleresque.
4. What we really want to say when they refuse to eat the meal we just slaved over.
5. What we wish we could do to the wasted food they don’t eat, but know we can’t because they’ve already touched everything with their dirty toddler hands.
6. Realizing that toddlers are human tornadoes, leaving a wake of destruction in their path for someone else to clean up.
