Oh my... He's not gonna be happy!

I just finished rubbing lotion all over Joshua. I feel so bad for the kid. He has such dry skin it makes me want to cry. The scaley patches on his head are so bad that I can't comb his hair unless I treat it and treat it with lotion.

Anyway, I bought a "pot" of lotion at Sam's and I microwave it till it's nice and warm, then I rub it in to his skin from head to toe, then I wrap him in a blanket and we sit on the couch doing school till it soaks in.

Then, before his bath, I do the same thing to his scalp, rub in a bunch of lotion and put a hat on him for about half an hour. That loosens up the scales and I can wash them off then.
