work has somehow been wearing me down even though i don't think the workload is heavy at all. have had colleagues tell me on separate occasions in the past week that i look tired (and like crap), so i guess it is true.
so friday was a welcome relief. we spent the morning at the playground and also having a rather enjoyable breakfast of soya milk and steamed yam cake. then it was indoor play time while i whipped up lunch (fried rice, cauliflower, broccoli and carrots) for baby. baby ate lunch without a fuss, and after her bath, she got her bottle of milk and had a 1.5 hour nap when i took some time to catch up with work emails.
baby woke up at around 2 and we took the train to causeway point as i had to buy some presents. baby behaved really well in her carrier during the train ride. i think she enjoyed the moving scenery outside the windows and observing people in the train. i will definitely miss the convenience of taking her around in the carrier when she exceeds the weight limit (which should be soon! wurh!).
realised that there were indoor play areas at the mall, so baby got to romp around in the playground for awhile. this was followed by mad driving on the barney toy car. shopping was next and i had a late lunch at yoshinoya with baby munching on the long beans and carrots that came with my beef bowl. all in all, we spent 2 hours out of the house and it was all good! so proud of myself that i managed to handle the outing with a super active baby on my own.
when we got home, baby got her late afternoon milk, followed by flipping through books and playing games with her soft toys.
after dinner, we went for our usual jaunt at the nearby mall and the library. then baby spent some time at our neighbour's home before coming back for her bath and bedtime.
what a great day. more of such days please!
