_SAN1252.jpg Britney Spears' mother Lynne may want the paps to cool it around her daughter - but she might need to try another approach!

First, we caught up with Brit as her assistant returned from Starbucks run before heading over to the gym. (Hey, gotta get some energy before you hit the treadmill, right?) We noticed Brit was wearing a white shirt with a pair of hot pink pants; we thought she looked cute as a button - but apparently, Britney thought otherwise, because her next stop was Niketown!

_SAN1341.jpg Inside, Brit met up with Lynne and picked out some new workout threads - specifically a blue top and some black pants.

_SAN1373crop.jpg Lynne picked up a few bottles of water while she was there, too - we know because Lynne came out trying to squirt 'em on the paps!

Britney Spears _SAN1378.jpg The only problem? Lynne's aim was a little off - and she only managed to soak Britney!

Britney naturally shrieked in protest at being splashed and hustled back into the car. Luckily, Britney and Lynne had made up by the time they got to Ballys - in fact, they ended up working out together! (Hey, we're not surprised Britney didn't hold her mother's squirts against her - after all, she's probably used to it by now!)
