Simon Hooper ist Vater von vier Töchtern. Auf Instagram zeigt er, wie chaotisch der Alltag bei ihm abläuft.

Eine Neunjährige, eine Sechsjährige und zwei zehnmonatige Zwillingsbabys gehören zur Girl Gang rund um Simon Hooper. Die Mädels halten ihren Papa stets auf Trab und dieser zeigt den Alltag der Hoopers auf seinem Instagram-Account.

Mit lustigen Captions erzählt Simon wie komisch, chaotisch anstrengend, wunderschön und laut das Leben mit vier Mädels sein kann. We like!

 

These guys are like Jekll and Hyde either side of feeding time. One moment they’re having a blazing tandrum that involves so much back bending, you’d swear their spines were made from wet newspaper and of such intensity that even Mariah Carey would say “Dam diva – calm down, that’s another level right there!”. The next moment, they’re quietly clapping hands & babbling away about how baby grows don’t fit the way they used to / the price of baby milk / that squirrel they saw eating a nut earlier / what they actually think of us (or whatever 10 mths olds talk about). I look forward to when these guys can feed themselves – I swear they can already (they can grab my wallet & happily drain it of its contents, so why not a bottle!?!) but they know we’d do anything for them so get us to do it. Lazy or manipulative geniuses? We’ll see…. #divatantrum #milkistheremedy #spinmadeofwetpaper #notaskingyoutomakethebottlejustholdit #twins #feeding #babytalk #fatherofdaughters #instadad #dadlife

Ottie’s teething has made her as clingy as a winter cold and she refuses to be put down on the floor at the moment, so I’m doing everything with a 9 month old surgically grafted onto my chest. This includes baking (with mixed success – Her feet were just at the right height to kick the butter, the flour and my manhood, several times). I find it almost impossible not to take over and mix things properly but i must let them make a complete hash of it, so they learn too. I’m sure the cookies will taste fine and we can just pick out the egg shell. I’m also almost certain that no snot made it into the bowl either so that’s a real a bonus. #shedbekickedoffbakeoff #snoteggcookiesummmmmm #ifindithardnottodoitforthem #backseatbaker #offtoabakesalewithyou #fatherofdaughters #instadad #dadlife

Is it only me or do all men learn to sleep on an 8 inch strip at the edge of the bed? Irrespective of the size of the bed, or how many people are in it, I always find myself relegated to the ‘man zone’. I’ve become so used to sleeping on this limited area of bed real estate, that I’m confident that I could sleep on top of a wall & not fall off. On the other side of the bed (the promised land), @mother_of_daughters sleeps like a star fish all night long, kneeing me in the back and generally complains about me coming to bed too late, being too cold or my foot encroaching onto her territory. At least the bed’s nice and warm, even if the reception isn’t sometimes! I hope that next Sunday, on #NationalLieInDay, I’ll not only gain another hour in bed, but more space – but it’s doubtful ! If you want to regain that hour (and some space for that matter) click in the link in my bio, loads of great prizes to be won @SimbaSleep #bedrealestate #livingontheedge #girls #twins #daughters #therestoomanygirls #fatherofdaughters #dadlife #instadad #gopro

Someone call crime watch! I took this picture of a guy getting mugged in broad day light today. The 2 confidence tricksters are known in the local area and ply their trade by pretending to love their victims and then, when their guard is down, scratching their faces to pieces, pulling their hair and dribbling on them until they are given milk or rice cakes. The suspects are described as looking exactly the same, to the degree that their father cant tell them apart. They are around 2.5 ft tall, talk with a strange accent and are incredibly cute. Some previous victims had said they smell like a childrens play centre toilets but that has yet to be confirmed. #muggedbybabies #twins #parentinginjuries #thelmaandlouiseinthemaking #callcrimewatch #fatherofdaughters #dadlife #instadad

Tomorrow is international day of the girl and I, more than most, am celebrating. I might be heavily outnumbered and outgunned, but I’m celebrating because my girls are strong independent young ladies that are growing up in a world that they can do anything they put their mind to (with a little encouragement). We strive for equality and see women as equals (and in my case, as superiors!). That said, in many places girls are seen as second class citizens and have limited opportunities to reach their full potential. This has to change. Go kiss your girls goodnight & encourage them everyday to reach for the stars. Tag a strong girl and share. #mygirlswearthetrousers #daughters #dayofthegirl #girlsareequals #girlsarestrong #sisters #mygirls #girlsareamazing #beproudofyoudaughters #fatherofdaughters #instadad #dadlife
