having a family with ali abdul headcanons

ali wants to settle down. he wants a family so bad and he makes it clear to you that he wants to have a child at some point. adoption or birth, it doesn't matter. he wants to raise a baby and be a father, point blank period!

once he finds out that you're pregnant, he's over the moon. he's always wanted to be a father and now it's finally in reach

expect him to be hovering around you a lot. he'll make sure you're staying hydrated and eating well, concerned about your safety and health as well as your babies

he will baby proof everything. he insists on doing it so you don't have to. he'll love every single second of it, too. he's so giddy that a smile never leaves his lips as he covers up outlets and puts away any sharp objects

he'll lay next to you and talk to the baby. he'll look down at your stomach and just.. smile. he'll tell them about his day and how much he loves them already. you always feel your heart swell. you knew he would be an incredible father, but seeing it in action really brings it all together

if you aren't married already expect to be soon. he wants to settle down, like i said before. he loves being your boyfriend but he feels like husband is an upgrade so he would propose to you at some point. he loves you so much that he wants to marry you

when the baby does arrive, ali will help out so often. some fathers leave all of the work to the mother and he would never see the point in that. the father has just as much responsibility as the mother does

if the baby cries, he'll see you get up but he's already out of bed and tucking you in under the sheets again

"shh, go back to sleep. i'll take care of this." he'll say with a cheeky, loving smile

you can only nod at him and go back to sleep, thinking about how lucky you are to be with a man as lovely as him

he'll always be holding you or the baby. if he isn't then something is wrong because he has to be touching one or both of you at all times, it makes him happy

whenever he thinks about how he actually has a family with the woman he loves his chest swells and his heartbeat speeds up. he adores you with all of his heart and he's so happy he can spend his life with you

he'll play hide and seek with your baby as they lie in the crib. he'll love hearing them giggle whenever he disappears and reappears. it means the world to him knowing he's a father

as your child grows, ali will buy anything and everything they want. if they want a princess castle, he'll go out and buy it. anything is on the table because he loves your child so much

he will play with them. anything they want to play he'll do it. you'll take your child to a nearby park to let them play and he'll play with them and watch them, making sure your child and the other kids around them are staying safe

he loves kids. he'll look after not only your child, but also others. he's a father through and through and cares so much about children that he'll protect any of them. but he loves your child the most of course

when your child starts school, he'll teach them how to do math and languages. he'll help them with their homework and try to make it as easy as possible for them to comprehend

if your child is anything like how i was, they'd cry if they didn't understand something relating to school. ali will be so patient and gentle with them, soothing them and reassuring them that everything will be okay

if you decide to have another baby, ali will be ecstatic when he finds out about it. he never wants to pressure you but he always wanted a growing family with a few children to raise with you. he was lucky with one but now you're having another one he would be so excited

he'll love this baby just as much as the one before and will be the best father for them growing up

ali will always help your children with everything. he is so grateful to even have them in the first place, so he'll do whatever it takes to give them the life they deserve

as his children are pakistani just like he is, he wants them to connect to their roots. he will teach them about their culture and even if you aren't pakistani yourself, he would want you to participate along with him

his culture is important to him, and so are you. he cherishes you and would love you to be a part of the culture he values so much. he would be so happy to hear that you would participate in it

he'd cook cultural meals for you and your family for dinner, anxiously awaiting your thoughts on it

he will teach your children how to speak urdu. it's important to him and important to you that they know about every single part of their culture

you'd teach them english, and if you spoke another language you'd teach it to them too. they would grow up being bilingual and you would be so proud of them

they would have multiple first word experiences and if the first thing they say in english is "dada" or something along those lines ali's heart will explode

he'll be there for their first steps, first words, first everything. he takes pride in being a good father to his kids

he would always be so chipper and energetic and you wonder how. he is always so full of energy even with children that it baffles you

he would shower them in kisses and love, tuck them in every night and read them bedtime stories. he would tell them he'd protect them from monsters to prevent them from having nightmares

definitely loves birthday parties for your kids. their friends would come over and so would your parents, he would love seeing their reactions to their presents even as toddlers up to when they were kids

he'll spoil your children because he knows they deserve it. anything they want they'll get because he can't say no to their pouts

ali is the best father ever. he loves his kids and he adores you. he always wanted what he finally has and he never wants to let go <3
