Sorry Mama was silent yesterday! But Mama has been plenty busy writing stories all over the Internet and well…we decided to take a little vacation south-of-the-border as we enjoy Lily-girl’s spring break. And you know that what means…swimsuits. Ugh…!
Mama is no sunbathing beauty as Mama learned long ago that staying under the shade reading a book is the best way to enjoy any vacation. However the kids have a different idea of fun — spending long hours in the pool and sunshine. Mama’s bikini wearing days went out the window a long time ago as Baby Boy gave Mama some nice stretch marks that aren’t for the faint of heart. Once upon a time Mama swore laser surgery was in order. Now, it’s more like bring on the Bio-oil (love that stuff!).
While the best sun accessory is a big huge umbrella that blocks any sort of ray that may come your way, Mama packed a few things that also are fashionable and help keep the sun at bay. Oh, and two cute suits that even those with stretch marks will be happy to wear!
Happy swimming!
is the best sunscreen for families. It not only doesn’t have all of that nasty stuff that EWG says sunscreen shouldn’t have, it also actually rubs in easily and stays on. We all use it on our faces and bodies. It’s also great for those with sensitive skin. Baby Boy breaks out using the “cheap” sunscreens or even some of those labeled “sensitive” — with Episencial, never a spot on him.
My philosophy is simple: just because you're a mom doesn't mean you have to forgo style or your life. You can do it all with a little help from Mama. Mama makes life easier by doing all the shopping, crafting and ranting for you because really...what Mama has the time for that?! Mama will not lie, I can bake but if you're looking for cooking tips you might be better off going someplace else!
