It’s Spring…kinda
It was an absolutely beautiful weekend. It’s almost spring…and we are getting stir crazy. We decided to take the family over to our local city park. It’s where I asked Sarah to Marry me. It’s just a nice melting pot for the area. People where there feeding the ducks and fish, throwing the football, soaking up the sun, walking the dogs, and other activities ending in -ing.
We grabbed lunch and the stroller and headed over. Now, as we set there in the shade of a leafless tree, we realized that the first trip out of the spring always has a learning curve. I am follically challenged and felt the sun shinning on the bald spot. We also realized the binja was in the same predicament.
So here’s what we learned.
1. us baldies must wear a hat or sunscreen.
2. if you think you shouldn’t see rule one.
As far as the baby, a hat is a great idea. As far as sunscreen goes, be selective. Find a “physical” or “chemical-free” sunscreen made with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Follow this link to Baby Center for more information.
Luckily, I didn’t burn, but Tony was alittle over done, but not too bad. He was mostly grumpy and tired because of it…and used Sarah’s decolletage as a vomitorium. Twice.
Now, it would be nice if spring were here to stay, bur in the south, we will have at least one more cold snap…and some tornadoes…and a volcano. It’s just the way we roll around here.
