Goodbye, eczema!

It's almost gone. HALLELUJAH! His face is nearly clear. His elbows are soft. He legs are sooo close! His knees have tiny little patches that keep getting irritated because he's starting to scoot across the floor. We started putting on some "knee pads" (actually those sweat soakers tennis players wear on their wrists--what are those called?!), but he gets his lil fingers underneath them anyway.

Here are some pics to show the how bad it was..and how GOOD it is now! I seriously think he's cuter with clear skin. :)

Getting bad...
At its worst..scaly, bleeding from scratching..yuk!
Yet, still smiling.

Getting better..! Notice it's in a heart shape. haha
HOORAY for clear skin!!!!

 We do have to be very careful, though. This week, after his skin cleared, he must've brushed his cheek against something with soap or chemicals because a few bumps came up. Grr! It's going to be tough this summer with so many wanting to hold him! My aunt had a great idea to make a smock to make people wear. :) Hey, it's either they wear it or they don't get to hold him!! I'm sort of hoping he'll be on the move too much to want to be held, anyway.
