    He is a chip off the old block, he behaves just like his father. It seems to me that he believes he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and that's why he's always throwing his toys out of the pram when he has to work hard.

    Thank you very much for your video!) in my opinion the most cute idioms about family are:
    1. To sleep like a baby. I was so exhausted last night and I slept like a baby;
    2. My brother's girlfriend has a bun in the oven (which is true. I'll be an uncle soon 😂😀).

    I love baking sweets. I took after my mum's passion. I'm a chip off the old block. Many people are glad to invite me over because I always bring the dessert. Sweets are in my blood.
    I think I've never slept like a baby in my life. I can barely sleep a few hours. I've got a light sleep.
    My sister followed my footstep. She is working as a freelancer for the current company I currently work for and I used to work before.
    Baking a cake could seem hard but it's actually a child's play.
    His father was a great entrepreneur, his mother was a brilliant teacher. He couldn't be other than a successful influencer. It runs in the family.
    She's Veronica, the new kid in the block. Please be kind to her and show where the kitchen is.
    She's got a bun in the oven. I'm excited for her.
    Changing your lifestyle doesn't happen overnight, you have to be patient and consistent. Start doing baby steps.
    Cleaning my room, I threw out the baby with the bathwater. I threw my passport away. It was in those old blue jeans.
    She's falling out with her husband because he forgot to switch it on and she has to wear another dress tonight.
    I prefer inviting my parents on Saturday and his parents on Sunday. There's bad blood between them.
    She wears the trousers. If she doesn't feel like eating pizza tonight, they won't join us for sure. He can't come alone.
    I'm not sure what we're doing tonight. Serena rules the roost.
    Finding a vegan restaurant in Malta is like taking candy from a baby.
    Please come over and feel free to do whatever you want. You're my own flesh and blood.
    His family is very strict. He just wants to travel all over the world with his backpack. He's the black sheep of the family.
    He went bananas and he threw his toys out of the pram. After a few days he calmed down.
    My friend Alex was born with the silver spoon in his mouth.

    I proudly resemble my mother but cherish my father the same, whilst taking care of the grandparents too. My mother always taught me the importance of family as they are the closest blood line in one's own life. I proudly follow in her footsteps and in terms of my genetic superiority in excising extremely hard in cross fit, and muscle building in a athletic way, and well toned is because it tuns in the family. Did some idioms here yes!!!!👍😅
