Black Tie Ball

I rented this dress from Rent the Runway for Hubby's ball this year. I didn't get the dress until 2 days before the ball and was so nervous it would be too long or too tight or not as cute as in the pictures. Luckily, it fit and was so pretty in person! I was a little uncomfortable wearing such a tight fitting dress, despite my hard working undergarments (it starts with an s and ends with an x...wink wink) especially since I haven't lost all my baby weight. Also, we were running late when we were leaving so I didn't get a chance to take these pics until we got back home 7 hours later so I apologize if my hair and makeup are looking a hot mess!
My mother-in-law insisted that both kids sleep over so we could enjoy our evening. It was the first time being away from D overnight and hubby and my first night out together since D was born.
We stayed until the very end of the ball, went to Mickey D's for a midnight snack (classy, I know) and finally got home close to 2 am. I was exhausted and ready to burst (nursing moms will know what I mean!!)
It was a fun evening and I was so proud of hubby who got recognized and won several prizes for his achievements in 2011. At the end of the day, who cares what I looked like, right? I was there to support the hubs and celebrate a great year together!
