<p>Celebrity couple Vin Abrenica and Sophie Albert recently took on a unique challenge of switching roles as mom and dad for a day.</p><p>In a recent vlog, the couple shared how they wanted to test if they could handle each other’s daily responsibilities at home.</p><p>“We had a crazy idea. We are doing a different kind of video. We decided to do a role switch. Vin is going to do what I do and I’ll be going to do what Vin does. We both prepared each other a list kasi we really don’t have any idea of what each other will do in a day. We have no pakialamanan with what each one does,” Sophie explained.</p><div><br/></div><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/DFrkVErv5Oc/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="14" style="background:#FFF;border:0;border-radius:3px;box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15);margin:1px;max-width:540px;min-width:326px;padding:0;width:calc(100% - 2px)"><div style="padding:16px"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DFrkVErv5Oc/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" style="background:#FFFFFF;line-height:0;padding:0 0;text-align:center;text-decoration:none;width:100%" target="_blank"><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:row;align-items:center"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;flex-grow:0;height:40px;margin-right:14px;width:40px"><br/></div><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:column;flex-grow:1;justify-content:center"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;margin-bottom:6px;width:100px"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;width:60px"><br/></div></div></div><div style="padding:19% 0"><br/></div><div style="display:block;height:50px;margin:0 auto 12px;width:50px"><br/></div><div style="padding-top:8px"><div style="color:#3897f0;line-height:18px">View this post on Instagram</div></div><div style="padding:12.5% 0"><br/></div><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:row;margin-bottom:14px;align-items:center"><div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;height:12.5px;width:12.5px;transform:translateX(0px) translateY(7px)"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;height:12.5px;transform:rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px);width:12.5px;flex-grow:0;margin-right:14px;margin-left:2px"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;height:12.5px;width:12.5px;transform:translateX(9px) translateY(-18px)"><br/></div></div><div style="margin-left:8px"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;flex-grow:0;height:20px;width:20px"><br/></div><div style="width:0;height:0;border-top:2px solid transparent;border-left:6px solid #f4f4f4;border-bottom:2px solid transparent;transform:translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg)"><br/></div></div><div style="margin-left:auto"><div style="width:0px;border-top:8px solid #F4F4F4;border-right:8px solid transparent;transform:translateY(16px)"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;flex-grow:0;height:12px;width:16px;transform:translateY(-4px)"><br/></div><div style="width:0;height:0;border-top:8px solid #F4F4F4;border-left:8px solid transparent;transform:translateY(-4px) translateX(8px)"><br/></div></div></div><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:column;flex-grow:1;justify-content:center;margin-bottom:24px"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;margin-bottom:6px;width:224px"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;width:144px"><br/></div></div></a><div style="color:#c9c8cd;line-height:17px;margin-bottom:0;margin-top:8px;overflow:hidden;padding:8px 0 7px;text-align:center;text-overflow:ellipsis;white-space:nowrap"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DFrkVErv5Oc/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" style="color:#c9c8cd;line-height:17px;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">A post shared by Sophie Albert 🌸 (@itssophiealbert)</a></div></div></blockquote><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>For the first challenge, Vin was tasked to look after their newborn, Amara, where he needed to wake up whenever Amara needed to be fed or put back to sleep.</p><p>“Ano ba gagawin ko? Ititimpla ko lang naman yung gatas di ba? Isusubo ko lang? When she cries, make the milk, carry her, and then salampak and then put her down. Paano kung di siya matulog ulit? Kasi hinahanap niya?” Vin asked as Sophie reminded him of his duties.</p><p>Although he managed at first, Amara had other plans. She kept waking up and crying throughout the night, leaving Vin completely sleep-deprived.</p><p>“Vin is trying to sleep. That’s definitely not my schedule. I should be awake by now. But I feel like he had a really hard time last night because Amara has been crying and crying last night and Vin couldn&#x27;t figure it out,” Sophie shared as she woke up early in the morning.</p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/celebrities/2025/2/8/how-did-vin-abrenica-and-sophie-albert-celebrate-forgotten-wedding-anniversary-1407"><strong>READ: How did Vin Abrenica and Sophie Albert celebrate ‘forgotten’ wedding anniversary?</strong></a></div><p>As Vin woke up, he then told Sophie of what he experienced on the first hours of their role switching, making his wife tease him.</p><p>“Ginising ako ni Amara. Ito nga lang (alarm clock) ginising din ako. So you wake up ten times a night pala). She doesn&#x27;t want to sleep after I fed her.  She’s not like that with you. Hindi siya natutulog sa akin,” Vin said.</p><p>Sophie teased him, “Welcome to my life.&quot;</p><div><iframe width="1519" height="569" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eLxzBNXg0Yo" title="What if we SWITCH ROLES? | Vin &amp; Sophie" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>She then explained, “The reason why Amara is with me at night was because with Ava (their firstborn), Vin couldn&#x27;t be woken up in the middle of the night like he cannot have an uninterrupted sleep kasi kapag he have interrupted sleep wala na.”</p><p>Later in the day, Vin took over cooking duties, something he rarely does.</p><p>“Kudos sa lahat ng mga mommies na nagluluto sa bahay. Nakakaproud si Sophie na mahusay siya magluto at siya talaga in charge sa pagkain namin sa lahat. Kanina nga lang nagsulat siya ng lulutuin namin for the whole week,” Vin said.</p><p>He also attempted to homeschool their first daughter, Ava, but quickly realized how challenging it was when Ava lost interest in the activity.</p><div><br/></div><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGE2n5JzgCB/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="14" style="background:#FFF;border:0;border-radius:3px;box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15);margin:1px;max-width:540px;min-width:326px;padding:0;width:calc(100% - 2px)"><div style="padding:16px"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGE2n5JzgCB/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" style="background:#FFFFFF;line-height:0;padding:0 0;text-align:center;text-decoration:none;width:100%" target="_blank"><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:row;align-items:center"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;flex-grow:0;height:40px;margin-right:14px;width:40px"><br/></div><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:column;flex-grow:1;justify-content:center"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;margin-bottom:6px;width:100px"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;width:60px"><br/></div></div></div><div style="padding:19% 0"><br/></div><div style="display:block;height:50px;margin:0 auto 12px;width:50px"><br/></div><div style="padding-top:8px"><div style="color:#3897f0;line-height:18px">View this post on Instagram</div></div><div style="padding:12.5% 0"><br/></div><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:row;margin-bottom:14px;align-items:center"><div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;height:12.5px;width:12.5px;transform:translateX(0px) translateY(7px)"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;height:12.5px;transform:rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px);width:12.5px;flex-grow:0;margin-right:14px;margin-left:2px"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;height:12.5px;width:12.5px;transform:translateX(9px) translateY(-18px)"><br/></div></div><div style="margin-left:8px"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;flex-grow:0;height:20px;width:20px"><br/></div><div style="width:0;height:0;border-top:2px solid transparent;border-left:6px solid #f4f4f4;border-bottom:2px solid transparent;transform:translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg)"><br/></div></div><div style="margin-left:auto"><div style="width:0px;border-top:8px solid #F4F4F4;border-right:8px solid transparent;transform:translateY(16px)"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;flex-grow:0;height:12px;width:16px;transform:translateY(-4px)"><br/></div><div style="width:0;height:0;border-top:8px solid #F4F4F4;border-left:8px solid transparent;transform:translateY(-4px) translateX(8px)"><br/></div></div></div><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:column;flex-grow:1;justify-content:center;margin-bottom:24px"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;margin-bottom:6px;width:224px"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;width:144px"><br/></div></div></a><div style="color:#c9c8cd;line-height:17px;margin-bottom:0;margin-top:8px;overflow:hidden;padding:8px 0 7px;text-align:center;text-overflow:ellipsis;white-space:nowrap"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGE2n5JzgCB/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" style="color:#c9c8cd;line-height:17px;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">A post shared by Vin Abrenica (@vinabrenica)</a></div></div></blockquote><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>For Sophie, the celebrity mom shared that she was going to have a chill day, away from the schedule that Vin gave her.</p><p>“Anyway, Vin is supposed to be at the gym at 4 a.m. and 5 a.m. but since it doesn’t happen everyday, I&#x27;m going to take this.
