We went and picked some wild blackberries today, well, it was more like we watched Billy pick them for us haha, but it was so nice to get outside today! Thankful for moments like these. 🖤

9 years ago today I became your girlfriend. Thank you for being my best friend for so many years, and all of the adventures we have had so far. I love doing life with you. 🖤

Last night made me feel like myself again. I felt alive. Sometimes it's the little things that mean the most. 🖤

✨ 3 months ✨
This sweet girl is growing too quick. She talks, babbles, and yells, especially at the ceiling fan. She is teething so she always has one hand in her mouth. She found her feet so she is always hanging onto at least one, even when I'm trying to change her diaper. She holds her head up during tummy time but she hates it and tries to roll over, but since she can't yet she just gets furious haha. She is so feisty and full of life, she never stops moving, or talking, and she smiles a ton. I'm just soaking up this time with her and enjoying watching everything that she does. 🖤

Happy 4th of July from the Maloney's! 🇺🇸❤️💙

She's just so cute, ahhh! 🖤✨

The fact that she will already be 3 months old this weekend breaks my heart.

Slowly but surely, I'm starting to feel more like myself again. No one could have prepared me for what postpartum would be like and no amount of makeup seems to cover the exhaustion that's permanently plastered to my face, but that's ok. I'm just thankful for the moments I have that make me feel like a human.

Most days, I'm the only suitable nap "location" for her, and I am absolutely fine with that. These are the kind of moments I wish to remember, these are the moments I cherish. Being her mama has been the biggest blessing of my life, but honestly, it has not come without challenges. Right now my days, and my life revolves around her, and her needs, and again.. I'm ok with that. I love how much she needs me, I love to feel needed by her, and it's such an amazing feeling to be the only person to bring her the comfort that she needs. Yes, it makes going out next to impossible right now, yes I've "put my life on hold" so to speak, but that's ok.. to me, that's what being a mom is all about. I've given up a lot, but I have gained SO MUCH in return. Yes, I might not be able to give her a pacifier and pass her off to someone else with a bottle so that I can go do what I want to, but that's ok. To be transparent, it wasn't at first, it was really difficult... I've had an extremely hard time giving up the freedom I once had. But every time I look down at my beautiful daughter, I'm reminded of how absolutely worth it she is, and how I wouldn't change a thing. I remember that these moments are fleeting, and that someday all too soon she won't want to nap on my chest, she won't want to snuggle all day, one day she will be independent, and she won't need me like she needs me right now. So for now, I sit here on my couch, and I enjoy my baby girl, and that is the most important thing in my life right now.
