This is why we use Sunscreen!

A couple of weeks ago I was at my moms house and wasn't planning on swimming but ended up letting Hudson go out in the pool for like 30 minutes. I didn't have any sunscreen so I knew I wasn't going to let him stay out there very long since he has the fairest skin in the world. That night I was getting him ready for bed and I took his shirt off and his shoulders were beet red. (You can't really tell how bad they are in the picture, they were BAD!) We couldn't let him swim for a few days and then when we did let him swim I made him wear a t-shirt in the pool to cover up his blistered shoulders. Now he is all better and he actually doesn't scream when I put the sunscreen on him.
