Itchy Spots

Poor Ben. As Stephanie describes in this post, he came down with poison ivy. It has spread over a good part of the front of his torso. He looks like he should be miserable to me. But he's handling it very well and does not complain much at all, at least not that I've heard.

The last couple of nights I've been applying caladryl lotion on all of his "itchy spots" prior to bed time. Then I have him stand in front of the pedestal fan in his room to help it dry faster. He likes that part. Afterwards, he kind of looks like he has used one of those cheap sunless tan lotions that turn your skin orange. Even so, he's still cute.
