Introducing my ah buiwell-endowed erm, son. I created a special hashtag for this little guy called #mylittledamien on Instagram to document his journey as my little human and mine as his creator. :)

The past 6 months was like a dream. From a teeny little newborn at barely 3kg to a fluffy 9kg sack of rice today, Damien has really grown. Why do babies grow up so fast! :( Mixed feelings... on one hand, I don't want him to ever grow up and retain the cuteness always, but on the other hand I can't wait for him to feed himself lah, lol. More than anything, I'm really glad that Damien is a really healthy baby (other than the constipation -_-), and didn't catch anything more than a runny nose. 

Damien was born looking a lot like his daddy. But he grew up to look a little more like me, heh. He's really cheeky, smiles a lot, has a hearty laugh, craves human attention, loves listening to stories, drools like mad, hates not getting attention, and takes up 60% of our bed space.

Why you so perfect one. #obsessedparentalert

Warning: Cuteness Intensive.

(this mama not paiseh one LOL)

I cannot deny that this parenting thing is hard. REALLY hard. Like nothing I've ever encountered before. It is a huge responsibility. It requires you to multi-task on a whole new level altogether. And you can forget about 'me' time, or 'us' time, or whatever time. No more sleeping in on weekends. You will keep worrying about your child until he's 50. It's like wearing your heart on the outside... so fragile. In a nutshell, that sounds like a pain in the ass. But you have never known that a human's heart can hold so much love, it's going to explode. You have never known love in such a magnificent form. Nothing makes you happier than seeing him/her smile, or laugh, or eat his toes. Being a parent is magical, and all worth it. We keep falling in love, over and over again.

Happy Half Year Old, #mylittledamien. 

With love, Daddy & Mummy.
