It changes you forever! When two become three it\u2019s impossible to maintain your usual routine as kids need a lot of attention. In fact, there will be a time in your life when your whole world will be spinning around these little bundles of joy that can sometimes turn into equally small hulks ready to smash everything they see. Being a parent is a one-of-a-kind experience, but there are still things all parents can relate to. That\u2019s why Mike Julianelle decided to start a blog named&nbsp;<em>Dad and Buried<\/em>describing his unique and often hilarious experience of being a father. One time he created a \u2018before and after parenthood\u2019 photo, which later grew into a series of memes that took Internet by storm. People started submitting their own versions of life before and after having children, and the result was simply hilarious! Here are 15+ photos of couples before and after kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This woman looks so happy we can\u2019t but wonder \u2013 is bringing up kids really that hard?
