Quaker bath

This past week our poor sweet boy came down with a little illness. For 3 days he had a low grade fever. On the fourth day he developed a slight rash. He didn't seem to be very uncomfortable but at the end of the night he started scratching his ears pretty bad. So, we decided to give Jack an oatmeal bath. I didn't "google" it first, so all I could think to do was to add Quaker oats to a warm bath. Jack in his oatmeal bath was pretty cute. It did help soothe his itchy skin.

When we first put him in the bath he kept saying "ewww grwoss" but he eventually started playing with the oats.

He enjoyed picking the oats off his body and saying "keen" (clean).

By the end of the bath Jack started trying to EAT the oats. That's when we knew it was time to get him out of the oats bath. It did help to soothe his skin and stop his itching. As of today his rash is gone and he's back to normal.
