There were times when we would be angry with Aleric when he was disobedient and cried when we do not allow him to have his toys/phone. There were countless nights when we had to wake up in the middle of the night to feed and change his diapers. It requires a lot more effort to carry Aleric around even do simple grocery shopping at nearby supermarket. We almost could not even go to haircut together.
However, we always ended up missing him at work daily, scrolling through photos in our phones to see how cute our boy is. We love our boy despite all the tiredness and sacrifices. Aleric is 78cm tall at 11+ month old. He was 51cm during birth, 50% taller now.
