The Gossip Girl alum, who shares four children with Ryan Reynolds, posted photo of her toilet seat covered in plastic wrap.

Lively hilariously wrote in the caption, "I knew I never should've taught them how to read a calendar."

It is pertinent to mention that Blake Lively and Reynolds often share lighthearted glimpses of their home life.

The couple, who tied the knot in September 2012, are parents to three daughters and one son.

At The Wall Street Journal's CMO Council Summit in December, Ryan Reynolds talked about his son, Olin, who was born in 2023.

When asked about a past failure in his life that turned into a learning lesson, the Deadpool star said his superhero movie Green Lantern.

He said, "Creatively speaking, it's hard to say. Someone might say Green Lantern."

"You laugh, but my son, it's his favorite movie, and he watches it every f------ day," Reynolds added.

Ryan Reynolds jokingly stated to the audience, "Do you understand the work I've had to do to get to the place where I can just pass by that screen and not go, 'Well, we could have [done something to make it better]?'"
