We failed. We took Bailey downtown yesterday to the Kite Festival and to see the Cherry Blossoms. And like very, very bad parents we forgot sunscreen. Thank god it was cold and she was covered from head to toe. The only thing that got burned is her face, and while it is pretty red, it's not horrible. She is acting like nothing happened - no chills, no soreness when we touch it. It appears that we got off easy on this one...lesson WELL learned, without too much pain.
Of course, we feel like shit about it. Our house is now equipped with SPF 8 for Kelly, SPF 30 for me and SPF 50 for Bailey. My face got burned too.
We had a wonderful time, though. We met up with Maverick Mama and her son (who is absolutely adorable!!!). We walked, talked and were surrounded by thousands of other people doing the same thing. Bailey got so exhausted by it that she fell asleep in her stroller, leaning over the edge, looking at the ground. Very, very cute!!!! She is such an extrovert. Loves the crowds.
It was a long day and when we got home and got Bailey down, I did all the weekly shopping and Kelly painted the guest bedroom.
Needless to say, we didn't spend a lot of time just relaxing yesterday. So far today, we've been cleaning and just hanging out. We'll go out at some point. Bailey isn't napping so she's kind of clingy.
Anyway. Enough randomness! Below are some new videos!

Hardly failure. Just a lesson in the different skin tones and the effect of stealthy sun. We came home with no sunburn at all....which is only a product of my son inheriting my easily tanning skin. Oh, and in the summer I wear SPF30. I don't like getting burned.
