Poolside Essentials

May 28, 2012

This weekend was wonderful!  The weather was amazingly beautiful…we spent 2 of the 3 days at my parents pool.  And if the sunshine and heat keeps up, I foresee us poolside a whole lot more.

Here’s the essentials I need for an afternoon at the pool:

  1.  Big hat and sunglasses…I can’t stand getting sunburned, especially on my face!
  2. Adult reading material.  Dr. Seuss only goes so far.
  3. Baby Lips and 14 Hour Super Stay Lipstick.  Both from Maybelline.  I apply the lipstick with my finger, just so my lips have a little color.
  4. Coppertone Sunscreen and Aveeno Baby Sunblock Stick.
  5. Assets by Sara Blakely one piece bathing suit from Target.  I love how it fits!  Plus it can be rather dangerous wearing a 2-piece when holding children.  I know this thing won’t malfunction on me.

Did you get to enjoy the water over the weekend?  What do you need for hanging out by the pool?

      Yes! And it makes it easy for the 3 yr. old to start applying some on herself.
