parents' dream

one of the most wonderful things which i appreciate about this country are the amazing parent rooms that they have in the shopping centres. the 1st time i stepped into one, i couldnt believe my eyes cos it looked like a hotel room! they're equipped with sofas, basins and even microwave ovens - i mean, you could actually have a picnic in there! it's such a stark contrast from where we came... when i even had to breastfeed ethan in the loo sometimes - sad isnt it :( and some of the shopping centres there claim to have diaper changing stations but it's located in the ladies' toilet?!? what if daddy had brought the kid out shopping n needed to change the diaper?!?

anyway it's great moving around with babies/toddlers over here. the aisles at shopping centres are wide, they have specially designated lots in the carpark for families with prams (not all places though) and they even provide high chairs in the food courts!

the parent's room that u see in this photo isnt exactly the nicest i've come across, but it's the one where i remembered to take my phone out to snap photos of ;)

so i'll be starting work tomorrow... after a 4 mth break. sigh.. i'm gonna miss ethan after spending so much time with him the last few mths. guess it'll just have to take some time to readjust again to our new schedules :P
