Was a wonderful day today! We went to Muir Woods this morning and had a long 2 mile walk. I say that that was the first walk I ever had since I was 7 months pregnant! Doing brisk walk also energized me...oh how I miss walking so much!
Suraya is 4 weeks old yesterday. How time flies when we're having fun! As per my previous posting, we could say that Suraya gets more gassy nowadays hence, she has been crying a lot past few days. So we got her Mylicon (Walgreens brand) drops and for now, she is sleeping soundly and not fussing around. I have also bought a Homoepathic 'potion' called Colic Calm. This 'potion' is said to reduce gas and fussiness in babies. It also helps calm teething babies. It is not cheap, but hey, I'd do anything to make her a pleasant and happy baby.
Tomorrow will be the end of Kakak Mas' 2 week winter break. Mas has been such a wonderful big sister/nanny to Suraya and a daughter to me. She helps tend to the baby when I was in the shower or when I cook. I will miss her greatly when she starts school on Monday. No more couch potato Kakak Mas hehehehe.
Mak could not get an early ticket to fly here. So she is coming after our Florida trip...that would be on the 23rd of this month. I am getting excited. Yes, I do miss my mak, have not seen her for about 5 months. Having her around would be of a great help to me.
The Florida trip will be in 10 days. I always LOVE going to Florida. Love the hot and humid weather, the husband's family and the jewish deli. I am still nervous about flying with an infant. It is also going to be a night flight via Las Vegas. I don't like night flights, hopefully it would not take a toll on my body and the baby's.
I have also decided to take the Family Paid Leave all the way till mid/end March. I do miss my work however, work can wait, I know that I will not regret this time bonding with my baby and mak.
