Day 19 - Afternoon Update

I-am-exhausted. It's 5:04 and we just got home. The party lasted a lot longer than expected. The kids had a GREAT time so it was worth it. I actually had a pretty good time myself mingling with some other parents that I'm friendly with. It was the perfect day for a pool party and their house was amazing. It was at the top of a hill and they had awesome views of the city.

I spent most of the party chatting it up while keeping an eye on my little one. I finally got hot enough that I decided to jump in. My younger daughter was in the deep end hanging on to a big floaty thing with like five other kids and I could tell she was going to be in trouble real soon. So I jumped in to assist and the water felt great. I swam around pulling the kids on the floaty for a while. I was a bit self conscious because I my swimsuit barely holds my 36DDD's in place. I kept checking to make sure one didn't pop out completely.

They served a lot of appetizers along with pizza and cupcakes. I ate one of my micro-meals right before going so I wasn't even hungry (which was totally freakin awesome). I almost always forgot to eat before going to parties because I'm running around trying to get everyone ready and out of the house.

Around 4pm I started to get a little hungry and whipped out my baggie of pretzels. I always thought it would be unbelievable hard to go to parties while on a diet I never realized how easy it could be.

The girls were having so much fun we stayed two hours later than planned. The invitation said the party was from 1pm-3pm but it was obvious that those were just estimates since more that 90% of the people stated past 3pm.

I was able to get a little exercise. This house had the longest driveway I've ever seen. It had to be like a quarter mile long...and it was steep. Walking down was fine, walking up with all the wet things was another story. And it was hot.

Now we're back at home. The kids took showers and washed their hair. Now they're laying on the couches watching TV. They swam for like 3 hours straight and are all pooped out. I'm pretty pooped myself.

I'm going to relax for a bit now. Will check back in later.
