Cute picture? Okay, I have way cuter things to talk about but I thought I would give an overview for everyone who has been asking about our recovery.Turns out I got a horrible infection in my leg after a vein burst during delivery. I was laid up for over a week, limping about, until I got it looked at and the antibiotics kicked in. I can't say enough about all the help we had, with Travis home from work and his folks visiting (more on this in a different post). Also, my sister came for a few days and was a huge help.
After my leg was almost better I woke up with pink eye in both eyes and feeling like someone dumped a bunch of sand under my eyelids. My mom and sister are here now, helping, since I am still suppose to stay off my leg as much as possible.
I am not meaning to whine, because I have been able to stay positive throughout. I have felt so taken care of and blessed. Felix is doing great and is such an enjoyable baby (more on this later, also). Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.

Pink eye too? That is UNBELIEVABLE. (Except i saw the picture, so i believe it.)
Get better Mel, we are thinking about you guys!
I can't believe you got pink eye too! So sad for you! I saw that your mom was here, that I'm sure has been a big help! Get better and I will call you soon!
Holy schnikees!! I had no idea. Why is the postpartum recovery always filled with craziness just at the exact time period of your life your hormones can't handle it!!! I always have a hard time getting a grip on things after I give birth.
That Felix is ADORABLE!!! I love the picture you have of him on the side of your blog, it totally makes me smile. I am glad you have help and family, thats always nice. I hope your legs and eyes continue to heal. Can't wait to chat with you!
Ok, your picture looks like me everyday, except I don't have pink eye. I am sorry it has been so rough for you. I hope you are doing better.
