So yesterday the Sheriff and I took a walk with his legs hanging out of the stroller, and I was worried that I was going to be a terrible mother because I have yet to buy sunscreen for the petite. I just knew those little legs were going to be all red when we returned. They were fine. But while we are on the topic--what do my fellow mommas out there use for their babies? Good brands? What about for sensitive skin? (If I don't get any comments back, I'm going to be mad at you. That means you!)
BUT, here we are, the very next day, woken up early by hurricane sounding wind and rain, and finding our way into the 20s tonight. Plus, there is a possibility of snow flurries on Friday. I was definitely thinking about this chance when I was awake listening to the elements, mostly about what we will put on the Sheriff for him to go outside and enjoy his first snow. I don't really have any super warm clothes because let's face it, the weather described above, sunburn included, is more typical. I guess it will be all about layers. He doesn't even have any mittens, so I'm thinking we'll use some socks. He will be quite possibly the most awkward looking snow baby there is, but let's hope for snow anyway. I'll post pics for sure. Maybe we'll work on our snow dance in the meantime. As you can see below, it's going to take some work. With grass that green, a sun hat that cute, and a smile that big, I don't know if we are ready for the white stuff.

I'm commenting so you won't be mad at me but I don't have any really good advice other than to make sure to put sunscreen on. The spray stuff is convenient but goes fast and that makes it expensive. I'm not great at sunscreening my kids unless we're out for long periods of time, like at the pool. But I've used lots of brands and they all seem ok. My kids have never had a burn.
Hey Jenn! G has really sensitive skin, but I've used several different kinds and haven't had any problems. I usually use the kind made for babies. I really like the spray stuff for her body and then a face type for her face.
Snow flurries may keep Mamie Jewels home poots!
Thanks for the tips ladies! It doesn't look like we need for a while (at least this next week in Houston), but who knows what the next one will bring?!
