We went two years ago with a friend and her 9-month old...<br /><br />Look forward to finally seeing y'all again this weekend!<br />AnjeaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-204295766188828386.post-668056598339345382009-06-02T21:33:25.394-05:002009-06-02T21:33:25.394-05:00I had the same frustration when we took Donovan to...I had the same frustration when we took Donovan to the pool on his first trip to Texas-- he was the same age, and I couldn't figure out the swim diapers (they just didn't seem to fit right even though I think he was just inside the weight limit). I now use cloth ones for swimming (since the place where he takes lessons requires them) and they seem to work/fit much better. Although I also hate to think of the day he poops in it...<br /><br />BTW with the disposable swim diapers you can tear through the side tabs to open up the diaper like a regular one, for much easier taking off. <br /><br />I remember the first times I used sunscreen on him, noticing his eyes would water and tear up. I now have a Neutrogena Baby sunscreen stick and use that on his face, and he hasn't had any problems-- I think it's a bit easier to get on, too, and doesn't run. I don't usually put any on his hands, or at least his fingers/palm, since I worry about him getting them in his mouth and/or rubbing his eyes and getting sunscreen in that way.<br /><br />Glad she liked the water!! =)Marcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00792375260633790983noreply@blogger.com
