POOL PARTY!

Saturday evening we went to the Omaha Parents of Multiples Club Pool Party.  This is the first real OPMC event that we have attended, just because of work schedules & the difficulty of having 3 babies.  But now that the kids are getting older, I don't think it will be our last.  We had an absolute BLAST!  The kiddos were a little apprehensive at first, but once they got the hang of it, they went full speed!!  I mean FULL SPEED!  The party was from 7-9pm, and they swam the ENTIRE time!  So we were all up WAY past our bedtime.  (Luckily we had "forced" an extra nap late in the day because we knew it would get late.)  It was also a pizza party, so we managed to sneak away from the water for 3 minutes to shovel in some yummy pizza too.  My shy little bubbas played great & actually did a little socializing with other kids & adults!  A handful of other parents asked "Are they 2?" and when I said, not quite, they are almost 20 months.  I got a "Wow, they are doing great & playing so well for their age!"  There were quite a few 2 year olds playing in the same area & we kept up pretty darn well!  I was pretty proud of them.  Makes me a little sad though when they act so grown up!!  They behaved so amazing & we had so much fun, wish we could do it again tomorrow!

The biggest hit was the slide.  Oh my the slide.  When I say Logan & Olivia went down 1000 times, I'm not exaggerating.  Hayden went down too, but not nearly as much.  He prefered to hang out on the steps & block the road.  It was an awesome, wide slide so there wasn't a problem with all those kids.  We did a great job waiting our turn!  And it was soft, so there were not issues with bonking heads.  Both Logan & Livi went WAY under a few times at the bottom, and luckily didn't get scared enough to quit playing.


"GO!"

Nice Liv!

Hayden ate like 1 1/2 pieces of pizza.  Logan & Livi were too eager to get back to swimming they couldn't wait for the pizza to get torn into pieces.  I told you we partied full speed!!

We also had our 1st juice boxes.  We knew exactly what they were.  Hayden had no trouble drinking out of one. 

Livi had a little trouble keeping the straw in.  She said a lot of "Uh oh!"s 

Logan had a hard time keeping the straw in too.  He however did a great job of putting it back in himself!

He found drinking straight from the hole to be easier.  Messy, but easier.

We had SO MUCH FUN!
