Megan McKenna Shares Adorable Bedtime Routine With Baby Landon

Just one Instagram post with her son Landon happily caressing the scalp of fame would bring on a heavy cocktail of baby fever. The reality star-turned-mother posted a cute video featuring their bedtime routine in which Megan smeared pasta all over Landon’s face, recounting playdate tales while interspersing less-explained adorable moments only a very little toddler can provide. Literally-this is one of those pieces of content that is pure gold on the internet.

The clip starts with Megan saying more and more gentle, almost coaxing suggestions for Landon to get going with his bedtime, basically a description fitting a parent pulling the wool over a tiny tornado pitching an utter fit. She moisturizes Landon’s face (he’s chewing on the tube, naturally), contentedly brushes his hair (the funny voiceover says she can’t handle it because it’s so blonde and cute), and reminisces about his playdate with his little buddy, Jenson. Just complete wholesome chaos, really.

But then, our star? That last bit with Landon throwing his full gremlin energy into the moments before sleep! Megan asked if any other mommies watched their babies do those last-minute energy bursts just before sleep, and judging by the comments, Megan does not own exclusivity rights on this. One comment said it was like zoomies from a dog-farthest-to-the-right-description-of-toddler-energy-I’ve-ever-had.

Besides the comments, the internet had its own opinions. Some were gushing over Landon’s big blue baby blues (same), others couldn’t get past the pasta-for-face affair, while a few pitched in some parenting tips, including chilling the Sophie la Giraffe teether for the dreaded teething period. Another commenter intercepted the discussion by observing Landon tugging his ear, which, according to the veterans’ handbook, is almost universal signs of “teething hell incoming.”

Suddenly, just out of the blue, came a derailing turn into a random unrelated topic (turns out, it’s the internet). In extremities, someone wanted to sweep them off to Gaza, which…not the vibe, dude. It was promptly shut down by a majority of fans who were determined to stick to the real star of the show: Landon and his miniature chaotic charm.

A mum just slayed, if we could pause to talk about that. Multiple comments talked about how natural Megan seemed; one even called her a “great mum” and said Landon was a happy loved baby. Duh. The kid’s just living his best life, all caked in pasta and refusing to sit still.

So if you really needed to get happy today, that would have done it. The stuff from the struggles at bedtime, being cute at that playdate, the whole vibe from Landon will make you smile even if you’re not into babies. Practically, we’ll be sitting somewhere, staring at our screens, lurking for the next update on Landon. Preferably with a mess of pasta.
