Sunscreen, Summer, Potty Training!

This won't be long.
I have not been so good lately at the whole blogging world, where's the marathon pictures right? They are still coming...we have been so busy OUTSIDE, doing anything and everything. Hailey loves to go bike riding, and playing with anyone who will and can play, Ryker loves anything that is outside, water, bugs, digging, any sports, and where am I? OUTSIDE, doing yardwork, and applying sunscreen, and making them take potty breaks and drink breaks. Ryker is potty trained now, still some accidents when he gets scared or something, he has the whole "this is a different potty" anxiety going on....so I bought a portable seat that can go on any potty for Hailey and we use it for him as well. Ryker discovered he can squirt last night, so, I am NOT going to be carrying around a stool for when we are other places...I am a little worried about this one.
Hailey and Ryker are doing so great. I have kids who are starting to LISTEN to me, who we can go to the MOVIES with, and who EAT, and the SLEEP thru the night now...oh, it is starting to be fun and comfortable! It's always been fun, don't get me wrong, but it was always fun-stressful.
I labeled this sunscreen because I want your opinion:
Do you put it on to NOT get skin cancer Or do you apply it because sun burns hurt and you don't want your kids to be in pain?
I was thinking a lot about this, and I don't want my kids to be mad at me that they have skin spots that are cancer, and I don't want them to hurt, so it is a win win situation. Now if I can remember to do it everytime!!
I love summer, I love sunscreen, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE not buying or changing any diapers.
