20 Times Hamish Blake Was The Coolest Dad On Earth
The greatest love story of our time is Hamish Blake and Zoe Foster Blake. They redefine couple goals and give me heart-eyes with literally everything they ever do together.
With son Sonny and daughter Rudy rounding out the fam, the Foster Blakes are the closest thing Australia has to a royal family. I’m still low-key devastated their wedding wasn’t televised but I’ll get over it. One day.
In our eyes, the whole fam can do no wrong and all of Hamish’s social media posts demonstrate one irrefutable fact: he is the ultimate ‘cool dad’. And we have proof.
20 times Hamish Blake was the coolest dad on this earth.
#1. When he was a supportive but strict coach
#2. When the Foster Blakes won Halloween
#3. When Hamish always took one for the team
#4. When he announced Sonny was ready to move out of home (they grow up so fast)
#5. When Hamish shared Sonny’s wisdom
Lesson in perspective.
Me: "man, can't they see the no junk mail sign?"
2 YO son: "mailman brought us picture of pizza…that's AMAZING!"— Hamish Blake (@hamishblake) June 7, 2016
#6. And then shared some of history’s fixer uppers
#7. When Hamish showcased Sonny’s magical skills
#8. And kept track of all of life’s ‘firsts’
#9. When he remembered to teach his kids the most crucial info
Probably the most challenging thing about having a baby last Saturday is getting him fully up to speed on GOT by next Monday.

#10. But was never too busy for a classic dad joke
#11. Or never too busy to discuss important topics with Sonny
My son just watched JK Simmons acceptance speech and called me and we talked for an hour and a half. It was incredible. He's 9 months old.

#12. When he was willing to put himself in compromising situations
#13. But always remembers to remind his son to dream big
#14. When he made sure to treat his wife
#15. When the bond he had with his kids was just the cutest ever
#16. Even if sometimes the jealousy was real
Probably the main difference between being a baby and a grown man is your ability to wear nothing but sports socks and it be "sah cute".

#17. When he taught his offspring that it’s important to put in the work
#18. And when he shared this genius trick
#19. When he was sympathetic to Rudy overcoming her addiction to cat biscuits
#20. But most importantly when Hamish knew that his kids have the coolest mum
I’m not crying. No, not at all.
