Caleb gets burned....

As i was making a mocha, i set the cup of frothed milk down, out of his reach of course, but the cup was on a towel, which was NOT out of his reach. I heard the crash and the scream and knew.... he pulled it down on him. Luckily his long-sleeved shirt and pants kept his burns to a minimum. After a nice cold shower in our clothes, we called daddy - that medic job he has sure is handy! Anyhow, he had us put wet gauze on his burns and wrap the gauze so he couldn't pull on it. He really only had 3 burns, 1 on each arm and 1 on his side. We kept him in the wet guaze for a couple of days and he never blistered or scabbed - good idea daddy! The good news is he turned out to be fine - this was taken just a few hours after the spill, and as you can see, other than the mummy look, he's doing fine.
