Here is my left foot....resting! I was pregnant with my last baby girl...Ellie Jayne. This pic was taken in June,2006...one month before I had Ellie. I put it up because these are the most recent pics that I have of my foot not as swollen as the next picture. My camera is not working or I would take one right now. :)
Here are my feet just a few hours after I gave birth to my sweet Ellie Jayne (7 1/2 months ago)..a little swollen I would say. My mom was just about to give my feet a good rub when I took this picture. Mom's do such a good job of rubbing feet, scratching backs, etc. At least that is how it is in my family. We aren't shy about giving a neck rub or a back scratch. I wish Todd was a little better at it. :)
This is pretty funny to have my feet on here. I try to put my best foot forward everyday. It doesn't always happen but I am always in motion....always trying. With four little ones my feet take a beating. I am always on my feet during the day. Usually well into the night. My feet carry me around to do so many things for myself, my family and for others. I am grateful for them and for how well they have treated me thus far. In the past 5 weeks, these feet have carried me 60 miles as I have jogged religiously trying to get in better shape.
As a child/young teenager I did not like my feet. My toes are long like fingers and they just didn't look cute in sandals. I got over that real fast and am ok with my feet. I love what age can do. It helps you get over the silly things that you can't change.
I am not a fan of pedicures. Call me wierd. It costs too much for just a minute of feeling good. I would rather spend the money somewhere else.
I hope that I can continue putting my best foot forward or trying to do a little better each day.
Take Lelly's challenge and post your "best foot forward".
