I am participating in Mama Kat’s Writer’s Workshop again, this week’s prompt: Summer is here and it’s time to hit the water…will you be jumping in with the kids? How do you feel about prancing around in your swimsuit?

so glad summer is here FINALLY! I, however, will not be like other tribeca moms… wearing my bikini while I play with my child nowhere near water is not a good look for me!! but if water is involved, it’s a totally different story… after all, I like a good tan =)

I’m sure central park & the ice cream truck are all part of what makes summer great living in NYC. A beach trip sounds great as well! This winter was brutal! I’m in Michigan but we got hit hard just like you guys.

It would be so tough to move from Florida to New York! I know living in Michigan we get a similar climate, and long for summer too! Enjoy your summer!

I hear NYC can be very hot .. so your plans for the sprinklers and a beach getaway sound great. Stay cool and have fun:)
P.S. You are so lucky you bounced back. I’ve had two kids and while I certainly bounce (all over) it sure isn’t back!

YAY for summer! Sounds like you have a fun filled summer planned. I love the fact that your little girl is in the background the whole time super cute!

I’m pretty sure when you’re that fit you’re required to wear a bathing suit all summer. That’s awesome!

I love summer too, but THIS weather is disgusting! I felt like we were going to melt today! I couldn’t even bring Nate to the playground in this weather. All the equipment is burning – yuck! I didn’t know you were a fellow baby sign fan. That’s awesome 🙂

it was getting warm here in LA and then the weather totally decided to change its mind, so we are still kinda gloomy right now. but, i am looking forward to taking Cal to the pool (even though i can’t swim). i feel self-conscious about swimsuits, esp the two piece ones, because i have several HUGE tattoos on my back i got when i was younger and i hate them now!

I’m so with you on this one — I have absolutely NO problem putting on that bathing suit and lounging around in it all summer long, especially after this brutal winter. I can’t wait to get into the water!

Love your vlogs!
I am so excited to get in the water with the boys this summer, and I actually found two (1 piece) swimsuits that are cute and that I feel comfy in. 🙂

Hey! Hit me up when you hit the beach in SC! I live in Charleston and the beach is our 2nd home. We are there all the time. I too have been loving prancing around in my bikini – I just had my 2nd baby in August, so I’ve been working hard the last 10 months to get back into Mommalicious shape!

Agree! I’m thrilled summer is here! I was the only one NOT complaining during last week’s heat wave. I wish it warms up again…60’s is just way too cold now 🙂
