Maddox's poor belly

Maddox has dry skin and every once in awhile (and sometimes for no good reason at all), it flares up. When we put lotion on his skin this day, his skin turned bright red and poor Maddie cried :( A few weeks before this, one of his fingers was so chapped it split open and now (as in 1.16.07), he has a cracked red spot on one of his heals and one of his big toes (it still hadn't gone away from these pics).





We've been putting Eucerin Aquaphor on his feet, and it has helped with prevention, but not so much on the healing part. He also has a few spots on his leg and on his belly that need the aquaphor daily as well.

I feel so bad for the little pumpkin :( His cousin, Ana, has really bad dry skin too. She is much worse though and her feet are really bad. They are cracked all over, but I don't think that they have split open at all this year, like they have in previous.
