Olivia Munn is enjoying all the highs and lows that come with being a mom of two little ones.
Ahead of Mother’s Day, the Your Friends & Neighbors actress, 44, shared a video of her holding up a questionnaire and a drawing that her son Malcolm, 3, made for her, as he threw a tantrum on the floor.
Munn, who shares her daughter Méi, 7 months, with her husband John Mulaney, posed next to her son after Mulaney asked if Malcolm wanted to take a picture with her, and the toddler responded he did not.
“For Mother’s Day Malcolm gave me 20 years back,” she wrote in the caption, alluding to the first question on the questionnaire that asked how old she was. In response, her son wrote 24 years old.

On Mother’s Day, the actress shared a video on her Instagram of her with her daughter, as she pretended she was a superhero.
“Don’t worry, the streets are safe tonight,” she wrote in the caption of the adorable video.
When it comes to raising her little ones, Munn admittedly is not the strict parent. On Thursday, April 17, the Iron Man 2 actress sat down with singer and daytime talk show host Kelly Clarkson, 42, on The Kelly Clarkson Show and talked about her parenting style, comparing herself to Robin Williams’ character in the 1993 movie Mrs. Doubtfire.
“I think it’s so funny. The crazier things [Malcolm] says, it just makes me laugh so much. John is much more like — like I will laugh in the moment of him doing something, like knocking all the flowers off the table, I think it’s so funny,” she said, demonstrating how Mulaney looks at her during those situations.
“And, I — because apparently we’re trying to teach him not to do those things, but I know I am the Mrs. Doubtfire of the situation,” she continued. “I am Robin Williams, and he is Sally Fields.”

The Babymakers actress, who welcomed her daughter in September 2024, spoke with host Jenna Bush Hager during an appearance as a guest host for Today with Jenna and Friends about how much her life has changed since becoming a mom of two.
“It is so much fun every single day,” she told Bush Hager, before explaining more about how her life specifically changed since welcoming her second child. “It’s like I just landed on Mars. This is insane. How does anyone do this?”
The actress admitted to the daytime talk show host that she recently had a “big breakdown” while the family of four was in New York in December and her husband was working on Broadway. As Malcolm had a meltdown over not wanting her to hold Meí, Munn said she “broke down crying — a cry I have never cried.”
“I was so distraught, but then this realization, and I said, ‘God willing, we get to work as much as we are working now forever, and God willing we’re shifting and jumping around and moving everywhere, and we’re so lucky,’ ” she continued. “And every time there is a breakdown or a fit or whatever, it just makes me laugh so much so that I have to turn away so I don’t condone it. Everything makes me really happy.”
