Shopping with Nathan

It was going to be a long day today cos Chong won't be home till 9.30pm. I thought I would be bored stiff if I don't get out of the house. Anyway, we haven't been out to meet with sunshine for the entire week, it'll be good for boy and mom. So, after his usual breakfast, got us changed and we headed down to plaza Sing for some shopping.

It was spotlight stop first. Shopped around for some fabric suitable as sofa cover. Hunted high and low, and finally chanced upon something to my liking, ordered 2.6m. nice change for the Christmas and new year. And then walked further, bought a fresh piece of plastic for the dining table, one with christmas prints, hmm, gold plated, cool.

Enough of spotlight, went to check out the christmas clothing collection. G2000, Chong's favourite stall, and guess what, my eyes were immediately set on a RED turtle neck top, yes, bought it without trying on. With Nathan around, can't get into fitting room too long. Next was Mphesis, tried on a poked dot bermudas, think it looks pretty trendy, poked dots is definitely in for all time, and berms ...? nice change.

Nathan was well behaved much of the time, except when I had to put him in the carrier, didn't want to stay in pram. So the pram was used for my shopping goods. We hoped on to carefour to buy our favourite aloe vera drink, sweet potatoes and pumpkin to top up his food supply for the comimg week. Slept 20mins in the pram and off we went to Mavis's house.

It is always refreshing to meet up with other mums and their kids at their homes. Mavis is a great model example of one stay home mom. She's pregnant with her third child now, how blessed is her womb. Didn't talk much, we just sat there watching the kids play by themselves and laugh at their playfulness. For Nathan, he was rolling about and sitting around, still wanted to be carried much of the time, probably cos of unfamilarity. It was a good afternoon spent there.

Quite a pleasant day, first time out shopping alone with Nathan has been rewarding, boost up my courage to do it more often, but of course, weighing on the pockets though.
