Passing down your "pale white genes" to your children


I guess it wasn't a surprise when Brandon and I gave birth to a child with pale skin. We were hoping that he would carry a hidden Mediterranean gene that would make his skin tan at the slightest bit of sun. As you can see, we were doing our best to make our son's first long trip at the beach a delightful memory instead of burning his skin to a crisp. All thanks to lots of sunscreen and a baby-sized hazmat suit, our little boy survived the sun. Note: we did allow him to leave the tent and explore the beach.

  1. this picture cracks me up. somehow, in my mind, it doesn't quite embody the statement "make our son's first long trip at the beach a delightful memory" quite the way i would have imagined it. i think your description of a Hazmat suit is right-on. :)
