Summer Uniforms

This outfit actually makes sense if you've ever been to Wichita in the summertime:
 

And it's a good thing, because the swim trunk/rain boot combo has become Roman's default daywear.

Yep, we're dorks for summer and, by the looks of our hot weather uniforms, pretty dorky in summer as well.

Our other summer looks include the boys' hilarious swimteam jammers, built for speed in the pool, even if my kids are not. Also, pretty funny since they're baggy on the boys' twig legs: 

(Yes, speed is a work in progress. Sweet Roman, excited as he is, backstrokes in an incredibly slow - but perfect! - circle.)

Most nights, we have their charming T-ball and baseball uniforms, which appear to only come in XXL.


And Roman randomly dons goggles for no reason whatsoever, like Kenny Fisher in Can't Hardly Wait.

As for me, I'm usually blurring the lines between swimsuit cover-up and day wear (hey, add a necklace and it's evening wear!), or modeling what I'll call "T-ball chic." But most days, you'll find me in some version of this uniform, built for protection against further sun damage. Not great, though, for keeping an eye on the swimming kids.
