BEE STING!!!

Sweet boy stepped on a bee tonight!
We were playing in the pool, he climbed out to get a towel, and all of the sudden started yelling "hurt hurt FOOT HURT HURT HURT!!!" We thought he stubbed his toe, but when he didn't let up, i went over to pick him up, and sure enough a bee fell off of his foot and was buzzing in circles on the ground... errrrrr!!!

so - he cried for about 20 seconds, and calmed down enough for me to explain what had happened - we whipped up some baking soda and water mixture to put on, and he was more concerned about the "mess" of the mixture on his foot than the "hurt"....

he was a trooper - his foot is a little swollen - but all of the rest of him is ok... we gave him a drop of childrens benadryl before he went to bed... so, we'll see how it goes.

updates to come.

any awesome bee sting advice to share???
