i loathe mosquitoes



he was outside for no more than 10 minutes!  by the time i saw the welts on his face and got him inside, he had five bites swelling on his cheeks, side of his face, and one on each eyelid.  just when i was beginning to think it was cooling off and the mosquitoes were leaving...



that's exactly how i would feel, bud...


the next day, they swelled even more.  the poor kid was such a trooper though!  he didn't mess with them at all which amazes me!  and he even took some good naps despite his crazy swollen eyes!  i felt so bad for him, every time i looked at him.  we joked he was our own little Rocky!  today, i'm grateful to report, the swelling is down and the bites are subsiding.
