Poor Little Monkey

Curtis burned his hand pretty badly the other day on the glass front of a gas fireplace. It blistered pretty quickly and he just cried and cried. However, once we got home I applied some burn gel and gave him some Motrin. Within an hour or so he was pretty much back to normal. Later in the afternoon he accidentally popped his blister, for which I was grateful, and he didn't even cry. In the days since he has been using the hand and it seems to be healing nicely. We've been keeping a glove on his hand in order to keep the neosporin and band-aid on it. In addition to the big blister at the base of his fingers there are also some little ones on his finger tips. :(
