Amy Schumeris sharing a seasonal mom hack!

On Saturday, Jan. 18, the comedian posted a snap on herInstagram Storiesdocumenting a snowman-making experience with her 5-year-old son Gene, in which the pair apparently decided it was best to take a simpler route in sculpting their new frozen friend.

In the snap, the 43-year-oldTrainwreckstar can be seen smiling at her son as the duo struck a pose — right next to what looks to be an impressive in-ground snowman.

Their creation had all the traits of any snowman — a carrot nose, a red hat, a pair of sunglasses and even a robe — but instead of being a proper sculpture, Schumer and her son had him take shape, well, within the snow itself.

“Great moms find short cuts,” Schumer captioned the image, in which she can be seen holding up a peace sign while dressed in winter gear.

Schumer, who shares her son with husbandChris Fischer, has previously shared glimpses of her life as a mom on Instagram. Back in October, sheposted a Reeldetailing her attempts to order Gene a cute Halloween costume, instead winding up with an adult-sized head of a bird mascot.

“So if anybody needs me to homeschool their kid, I just wanted you to know that I’m a totally fit parent," she joked.
