We tend to celebrate and poke fun at our insecurities, failures and doubts as dads on this website of ours, ironically named HowToBeADad.com, a place you can count on to never really tell you how to be a dad. At all.

So, it’s no surprise that we love and wanted to share the brilliant photo series created by photographer and author, Dave Engledow, and his wife, called: World’s Best Father. A tongue-in-cheek name for a series of photos depicting fantastical scenes of sleep-deprived cluelessness from a first-time parent of an adorable daughter.

Let’s take a look at 15 photos from this brilliant series. Remember, the dangerous scenarios were Photoshopped (including the Twilight one), so don’t freak out (at least not in an ugly, judgey way).

1. Bath Time

2. Bedtime Story

3. Never Look Away

4. Over the Top

5. Pressing Matters
