 Dry Skin 
Emily is getting a lot of dry skin.  Mostly it's really bad on her feet/ankles, and hands/wrists, but she also has it mildly around her eyes.  I was using Johnson's baby lotion on her hands/feet and it got WAY worse.  We were also using Johnson's head to toe body wash.
  I switched to Avenno body wash and Gerber Oatmeal lotion which is a little better but she is still a little dry.  Also I don't want to put any lotion around her eyes so I don't know what to do for that!
  Maybe she has really sensitive skin?  Is there a good brand for that that I should try?  What can I use around her eyes?  She gets all peely around there and I feel bad for her!

 Re: Dry Skin 
When Logan first came home he was sooooooooooooo dry and scaly.  The Dr said to use Aquaphor, Eucerin or Cetaphil.  I'm not sure if I would use anything around the eyes though.
 
  Edited to say:  J&J baby lotion has such a fragrance I was afraid to use it, that's what probably made it worse

 Re: Dry Skin 
I use Cetaphil for myself and for Nate.  It's like $10 a bottle but it's worth it.
