Cartoonist Illustrates the Moments That All First-Time Parents Can Relate To

Parents, if you want to laugh at the reality of parenthood, you’re going to love this new series of drawings by Israeli artist Yehuda Devir. 

The talented artist and his wife recently welcomed their first child, Ariel, into the world, so they know about the realities of being new parents first hand. Thankfully for the rest of us, they’re capturing the hilarious truth about what it’s like to have a baby in art, and we’re loving it. 

Scroll down to see some all-too-relatable artwork that will make you feel seen if you’re new parents, and for parents with older children, you’ll get to remember that even though babies are cute, they make life anything but easy.
