When Lyndsay Coyne returned to work after her maternity leave finished, her husband, Matt Coyne, took on the role of the stay-at-home parent to look after their six-month-old son, Charlie.

When the new mum messaged her husband to find out how their baby was getting on, Matt decided to send some photoshopped pictures Charlie going to pubs, strips clubs, sky-diving and launching from a human canon.

The dad, who blogs a Man vs. Baby, decided to share his messages on his blog’s Facebook page, where it’s been shared over 7000 times and has over 30k likes.
The Facebook post said

“Charlie’s mum’s maternity leave ended,” Coyne wrote on Facebook when sharing the exchange. “It’s true to say that as Lyns walked out the door that first morning there was quite a few tears, sobbing, and protest-soiling.

“Anyway, to alleviate Lyns’ concerns about leaving Charlie in the care of a f*ckwit, I promised to keep in touch…”

Matt’s response to his wife’s text ‘How u getting on?’ was replied with

“We’ve just nipped to Wetherspoons for a couple before lunch. Wetherspoons was a bit dead so we moved on to ‘WildKatz’.”

Lyndsay saw the funny side until she prompted for a proper picture. When she still didn’t get what she wanted she replied, “I swear just one more and I am coming home to punch you in the testicles.”

The full photo and sms exchange can be seen here.

The comments under the post have congratulated the dad for his funny and creative messages.

“Your posts really are hilarious,” one person wrote. “Well done for lightening the load of what can be a stressful time.”

Another wrote: “You really have to laugh at this, I mean I nearly cried looking at those pictures.”

Matt’s blog is just as funny, as he shares life as a new dad, with his most recent post complaining of how much stuff he needed to pack to take a six-month-old baby away on holiday for a weekend.

Since the birth of his son Charlie, Coyne has frequently posted updates about life as a new dad.

“Also, don’t take an expensive pram on a flight – the moment you check in and that pushchair disappears behind that rubber curtain, it is collected by two wrestlers who smash it against a wall for half an hour before it is transferred to the runway, where they reverse the plane over it a couple of times before placing it in the hold.”
