Now that we are about 10 days after AJ's birth, I am finally starting to feel like my old self. The pictures I am posting show my swollen feet and ankles somewhere around my due date (affectionately referred to by my friend as "cankles" because there was no distinction between my calves and ankles) versus what they look like today. I think I am also coming out of the baby blues. My tip-off that I was feeling down came when I put on a Kenny Loggins CD of children's music that my mentor at work had given Andrew and started sobbing uncontrollably at Kenny's rendition of the Rainbow Connection. After seeing this, my mom and Joe started insisting that I take a nap whenever AJ is sleeping, rather than responding to e-mails, throwing in a load of laundry, etc. The extra sleep has put me in a much better mood.
