Good morning! It really is Friday right…? This week was super confusing and I am totally ready to get this weekend started! We woke up to some cloudy skies, but it’s going to be hot today so we are definitely heading to the pool! My kiddos absolutely love the water! Any water! You say “do you want to go swimming?” and they are out the door! With our temporary living arrangements, we are loving the pool!! Of course the kids love it, and I am loving having two kiddos that are completely wiped out by the end of the day!! This week we took a little break from swimming and I’m thinking my tan needs a little touch up… Off to the pool we go!
First let’s talk about some of my favorite things we have been using for our pool days!
Swimwear! There are few things I love more than seeing Jax and Mia in their adorable suits! I love finding bright and summery patterns, and honestly I would get each of them all the suits if my wallet aloud it! We are always checking out Target at the beginning and end of summer! You can find great deals on summer items at the end of the season for next year, and of course grab suits for this season! I also love checking out H&M! They always have darling items at great prices!! Another item we added to our bags this year is a rash guard! Being in this California sun, we quickly realized we needed them! Here are some of my favorites for the kids!
Now that we have the kids all ready lets talk my swimwear! I have been loving all the one pieces this summer! I feel like I can run around and play with the kiddos and not worry about adjusting my suit all the time! I have found some great pieces!! Just like the kids, I like to check out Target. I have two suits that I got this year and I love them!
Now that we have covered the important stuff, let’s talk all the little details! Every summer I always think I need to get a new pair of sandals for the pool or beach, but I always go back to my original flip flops that I have had for 11 years! Yes you heard that right. My tried and true Havaianas Flip Flops. I wear them all summer long and take them on every beach vacation! They are the best. The kids have yet to get their first pair, but they love throwing on their Native Jefferson Slip On Shoes. There are so many cute colors I want to grab, it’s a little out of control!
Protecting our skin from the sun is super important! We are always applying and reapplying and staying protected 100% of the time! I like to use a couple different products for my face as well as throw on a hat! In addition to the kids wearing a rash guard, we are lathering up with sunscreen like crazy! This is what you can find in our bag.
All we need is a few snacks and water bottles and we are good to go! Pool day coming right up! What are some of your go to products for your pool day or beach vacation??
