Justin and I decided to head out to Mineral Wells State Park to do a little hiking the weekend of Labor Day. Jalyn loves this kind of stuff, so off we go. It was really fun, and Jalyn just had to lead the way. We climbed a lot of trails, over rocks and under rocks. We got on top of them and checked out the lake. It was really pretty. There was lots of vegetation around, and we were constantly looking out for poison ivy. Well, I guessed we missed some, and Jalyn got right in it.
The next day, I saw a few red spots and one near her eye. Then, the next day, full-blown break out. This is the 4th day, and by far the worst. We have been applying the left over cream from last time, oatmeal baths and Benedryl. It's not all over her body this time, but the worst is on her face by her right eye and on her inner right thigh. Her eye is swollen, and there is even a spot on her eyelid. My poor baby. I can't believe Justin and I didn't get any. Next time we do something like that, Jalyn will be wearing long sleeves and pants (maybe gloves too). Well, off to the doctor tomorrow.
