We just got back from an impromptu swim party from my cousin Sandy's house in PV. This may very well be the last swim party of many as they are moving this weekend to their new house in A. Sadly, David could not go with us as he had to work a late shift in the ER today. We wish he could have been there as he would have been delighted to see Liv having so much fun in the water! She was so excited to get into her new polka dotted bikini (and matching hat!) from her Yi PauPau. I hope that I'm not biased in saying that she looked a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e...and if I am then who cares cuz she was just way too cute in the water.
I bought her this floaty that has a canopy to protect her in the sun and she had a blast. You can see in the video that she's kicking her feet! I was very disappointed to have forgotten my underwater camera that David got me for this past xmas. I ended up with a video from my phone, but I have the old Android and it only allows for me to video one minute at a time. I'll just have to remember next time. In any case, Sandy first took note of Liv putting her mouth in the water! We thought she may be drinking the pool water but upon closer look she was just touching the water, and once or twice I think she licked the water! David had said that she was at an age where she explores with her mouth....looks to be true..haha. I wish I had a video of that but by that time I'd gotten my hands wet again. Toward the end Sandy and I even saw her blowing bubbles in the water!
We ended up being in the pool - well really jaccuzzi as there was not enough time to heat up the big pool for this impromptu swim party (Szeto Clan were all there sans Momma Szeto). I give a lot of credit to Brian for venturing out, and swimming nonetheless, with all 3 kids + 1 more (Nomi's friend)! We were in the pool for over an hour. Liv's feet were so wrinkled (again wish I had my camera). I dried Liv off after attempting to rinse her in the backyard sink. Changed her. Fed her. Changed myself. Again props to Brian. Ate dinner after Harry picked it up. Changed her diaper. Collected our stuff. Packed the car. Drove home. Fixed bottle. Let Higgs out to pee. Got Liv up to her room. Changed her to PJ's. Fed her. Got stuff out of the car....WHEW!
I do miss the ol' days of impromptu pool parties, where I can just grab my suit, sunglasses and a towel and just go! Then stay till the wee hours and come home! But I wouldn't trade these photos and videos for wee hours, not even a lil' bitta wee!
