Last week, I shared some of my favorite suits for momma, and today I’ll be sharing some of my favorite picks for the little guys! We spend a lot of time at the pool and doing lots of different water activities during the summer, so I like to have at least 3 swimsuits on hand for Lil’ CB. Swim trunks can be a little tricky because they can easily slip off wet skin once they get heavy with water, so we’ve always had to size down. In fact, Lil’ CB wore the same sized 18-24 months swim trunks for 4 years up until he was almost 5! This year, we have 2 suits from last year and the year before that Lil’ CB can continue to wear and I’ve bought one pair, with my eyes peeled for perhaps one more pair. If I could buy an unlimited amount of swim trunks for Lil’ CB, here’s what I’d get:
1) Target Striped Swim Trunks: A little note on these…these are the pair that I recently picked up for Lil’ CB and I LOVE them. Here’s why: the elastic ties on the trunks ACTUALLY WORK. SO many pairs of boys swim trunks have “pretend” adjustable ties that do nothing, so I was so pleased to find out we can actually make these tighter as needed. I am fairly certain that the other swim trunks in this line (Circo) are also adjustable.

good to know about the adjustable waist on the Target shorts!
J is a slim little guy and could easily still fit into 2T (maybe even 18-24 months!).

Super cute!! Looks like I have some “add to cart” action going on soon. DS is skinny to begin with so he’ll be rocking the same size swim trunks for at least 2 summers each. More bang for my buck!

We almost bought #1 but opted to go with baby swim diapers this summer. These are all so cute and give me hope that I can still find adorable things for little boys!
