Our first child.

Born last June. Working from home with a baby there too for most of the time has been quite OK actually, much better than expected. Since the pandemic hit we have both been working from home (I already was working remote) and I can't imagine coming home from work at eg. 17:30 and then the kiddo going to bed at ~19 so I would only see him for a short while.

Without, the pandemic would have been much much harder to bear.



Same, August. Very challenging and very rewarding. A lot of work and sleepless nights, but all worth it to see that tiny person smiling for just seeing you. Never though a toothless smile could be so cute.


Haha. The tiny-2-bottom-teeth smile is also very cute, I can assure you.

Biting mommy while feeding is less cute though. But overall, it's amazing to see the development and skills improve week by week. I'm working in robotics, my kids manipulation skills already surpassed that of many robots :-)
