date with the nate

so i guess it IS possible to have some part of my own life back with the baby around.
I felt this very strong urge to go for a run today. Something which i have been putting off because i'm too tired from taking care of the baby, or from work. But i couldn't put it off any longer so i decided to park the car at the esplanade and take a short run over to nate's infant care center to pick him, giving us a chance to bond on the way back to the car later. He enjoyed staring at people in the face when on the train ride, making people feel a little self conscious and later, we sat by the esplanade waterfront to enjoy a little bit of scenary. I'm so glad i could go for my run, and still feel like i have a life, even though it was just for 25 minutes, before turning on the mother-mode once again. And of course life has a funny way of reminding you about certain things because as i'm romanticising about the evening, nate's just starting to cry right now.
