Happy Girl Scout cookie season to all who celebrate! This is the most wonderful time of Thin Mints, Samoas, and Do-si-dos, which come in colorful boxes and support independent young women — what could be better?! If you’re the one helping to sell instead of the one buying, though, it can be more than a little stressful (IYKYK). Chrissy Teigen is a Girl Scout mom, and her latest posts will make you feel seen right now.
The Chrissy & Dave Dine Out star shared several photos of her life lately, which seems to revolve around helping her 7-year-old daughter Luna sell Girl Scout cookies.
Scout Mom
“Momming hard,” she captioned a post on Instagram today, showing how hard she’s been working. In the first, Luna is wearing a blue rhinestone leotard and tutu as she poses in the dining room. One table has a banner that says, “Girl Scout Cookies!” and the other is filled with toppings for bagel sandwiches for what looks to be a cookie party. In the next, the driveway is filled with boxes and boxes of Girl Scout cookies for Luna to sell. Overwhelming much? There’s also a photo of Luna digging into the boxes to inventory her cookies.
But the most relatable moment is a picture posted toward the end of the carousel. Teigen is dressed in leggings and a black top, with her hair in a bun. She’s sitting by the boxes of cookies in the driveway with both hands over her face in a gesture of total overwhelm. It’s a lot of work taking your kid to do door-to-door sales, hitting up all your friends and family to buy boxes, setting up cookie stands, and more, and we totally feel for Teigen going through it right now!
Moms could relate, with so many people sharing in Teigen’s misery. “Omg the cookie sorting is absolutely triggering 🫠🫠,” one person wrote. Someone else said, “I was our cookie mom about few years and it is an INSANE amount of work! And the thousands of dollars of cookies in your garage is no joke!”
“I feel your Thin Mint pain too,” another person commented.
Four Kids
But like all moms of multiples know, just because one kid has something big and busy going on, that doesn’t mean you aren’t still taking care of your other ones. In addition to Luna, Teigen shares Miles, 5, Esti, 1, and Wren, 7 months, with husband John Legend. In her post, she shared a cute video of baby Wren sitting on his mama’s lap and playing with snacks they brought for Miles’ basketball game, as well as a video of Miles playing in the game.
The Cravings author also shared a video of Luna ice skating. She is one busy mama!
Earlier this month, Teigen was in New York City to promote her new TV series, and she was missing her kids big time. Right before the end of the trip, she shared several photos of her babies smiling while swinging, eating, or going out in the snow, writing, “Loves of my life, I’ll see you tomorrow!!”
She traded glamorous photoshoots and TV interviews for carpool duty and Girl Scout cookies, which is what we call work-life balance. You’re doing a great job, Chrissy!
