Isobel even slept fairly well for Alida. And is welcome back. Jon and I were up at 6am and ended up playing games on the computer since we couldn't fall back asleep.
The birthday party at the pool seemed to go well. I got a little freaked out when another lady poked her head in and said that she had also booked the kids party room. Turns out that she was booked in for 2010, but the pool was able to accommodate her and found another room for her party. I was a little upset that we might not end up with the teach pool to ourselves for the first hour, but we were the only ones there until the public is allowed in at noon.
The kids seemed to have lots of fun splashing around and didn't want to get out of the pool for lunch. And Isobel got spoiled with presents. I forgot about the pinata and Jon had to remind me just as most people were getting ready to leave. Overall, I'd say the birthday party went well. But I'm glad they're only once a year.
Afterward a few friends came back to our place for some games. And now everyone's gone and Jon is making us stew for dinner. Looking forward to a quiet evening with a bath and then looking at Isobel's presents.
