Boomer Phelps Just Understands

Michael Phelps has 28 Olympic medals, 23 of which are gold. And now, a new (smaller) Phelps has joined in on the swimmer's spotlight, his three-month-old son, Boomer. Boomer Phelps has been on the world's radar not just because he's the son of the most decorated Olympian of all time, but also because he's downright adorable in his soundproof headphones, patriotic pants, and chubby cheeks. Boomer is a golden baby and has been front and center during these 2016 Olympic games in Rio to watch his "Superman" dad dominate the playing field his fifth time around.

Phelps finished off his record-breaking swimming career with a gold medal in the 4 x 100 medley on Saturday, August 13, and his fiancée Nicole, mom, and baby boy were in the stands for this historic last race. Although Boomer may not know much about Olympic glory just yet, he's become quite the famous fellow himself. His face, that has been circulating the internet and stealing our hearts, says it all. And he may just understand each and every one of us—take a look:

When you can’t come to terms with what you've just eaten and start questioning every life choice you've ever made:

When you get home from a long day and your bed feels like Heaven:

When you're feelin' yourself and don't care who knows it:


When the person you're with won't stop taking selfies:

When you just got away with something super sneaky:

When you're tired but still want to hold bae's hand:

When you remember that really important thing you were supposed to do but didn't do and it might come back to bite you in the butt:


When you realize you match the carpet:


When your song comes on and you're loving life and no one can bring you down:

When your friends force you out of the house and you're nothing but a big ball of resentment:

When you wake up from that "5-minute nap" that lasted too long and you've never felt more lost:

When you're just happy to be alive (those pants though):

When you realize you have grade-A genes:

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).
