Day 1 & 2 of maternity leave

:) Maternity leave started on 16 April, thursday.

Not quite used to having so much time on my hands actually. But I am thankful for the time of rest. With that physical rest, I guess I will be more ready for labour. Without having to think about work, I am also more able to prepare myself mentally I guess. Though I am hoping that baby will not come too late cos that would mean I have taken maternity leave too early :(

What have I been doing at home? haha :)

1. Caught up on a HK drama serial over the internet
2. Caught up on the readings and quizzes for sunday bible class
3. trying to do more reading, currently reading C.S. Lewis's "THE FOUR LOVES", a super super philosophical book, quite a challenging read haha :)
4. Got the help of my domestic helper to prepare and wash all the baby stuff
5. Watched some Youtube videos regarding baby care
6. Taught my domestic helper how to cook spaghetti and japanese curry
7. Looked up some new recipes online and watched Youtube videos

It's fun having the time to cook, explore new recipes etc. We are on to trying french toast, simple sauteed salmon today and probably fried rice. Simple stuff first, complicated stuff later on haha!

Okie...on to Day 3 at home! :)
