Huggies Little Swimmers Playdate with Emily Maynard at Carowinds

It was a beautiful summer day when we joined Emily Maynard and her son at Carowinds. We let our little ones play, clad in their Huggies Little Swimmers. The babies frolicked and splashed in the Carolina Harbor's new toddler area. The kiddos loved that the Little Swimmers were featuring their favorite fish, Dory & Nemo.

My baby sister Larisa turned 35 last week, how she is officially closer to being a 40-something than being a 30-something is beyond me.
