Sleepless nights and power walks

Una woke up at 5.30 this and just would not go back to sleep no matter what I tried. She finally fell asleep in my arms at 6.30 but woke up again after less than an hour. I refuse to get up earlier than 8 because I just think it's inhumane so we stayed in bed until then. All in all I think I got about 5 hours sleep....

Once up I put my gym clothes on and after breakfast we headed out for a walk. I power walked to Holland Park where I did 20 minutes of squats, push ups, dips, plank and lunges, before continuing my walk to Westfield. I wanted to get some tops for Una, she has grown out of so much stuff. I didn't find anything in the end, I hate how all the baby and kids clothes are so over the top, frilly and pink or with prints on them saying "I love my mummy" etc. Not my cup of tea. I picked up a couple of things I needed from Holland and Barrett and stopped for a coffee at the Marks and Spencers cafe before continuing my walk home. It had started raining by this stage but it was actually quite nice walking home in the cool rain. The rest of the day we have just spent chilling, I baked some healthy goodies and pottered around the house. The sky is looking blue once again so we might go for a stroll a bit later.
