Kim Kardashian fails to wrangle all four kids into family Christmas photo: ‘I really tried’

Kim Kardashian can’t keep up with her kids.

The reality star admitted via Instagram Monday that she failed to wrangle all four of her children into a family Christmas photo.

“I really tried,” the “All’s Fair” star, 45, captioned the chaotic carousel of daughter North, 12, son Saint, 10, daughter Chicago, 7, and son Psalm, 6.

“I really tried,” the reality star told her Instagram followers Monday.

Kardashian’s eldest child was absent from the first two snaps — and Saint, while present, stood far from his mom with a sour expression on his face.

In another shot, the Hulu personality laughed while holding out both arms as North and Saint bolted off in opposite directions.

While Chicago smiled gamely at Kardashian’s side in nearly every shot, Psalm stuck out his tongue, put his fingers in his mouth and made more silly faces.

North did show up in the final slide as she lip synced and danced with her mom in an all-denim ensemble.

Kardashian, for her part, paired a fuzzy brown jacket with tights and boots of the same color, completing her look with sunglasses.

The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” alum’s pal Malika Haqq commented “the struggle is real,” as Yris Palmer noted “all mothers understand.”

When the “Kardashians” star posed with her children for 2022 holiday snaps, she explained, “Most of the photos… were unusable because North was sticking out her middle finger.”

She told viewers that the shoots are the “most stressful time of [her] life no matter what” because the siblings “always cry” and “nobody gets along.”

Kardashian said, “It’s days like this when I really just need to lock myself in the room by myself for just a good 30 minutes. Yeah, it’s a lot. It’s just a lot being a mom.”

The “American Horror Story” alum welcomed her kids with her ex-husband Kanye West, whom she split from in 2021.
