fighting postpartum saddies 🐝

Attempts at driving off any potential postpartum depression ☀️ Week 1 was pretty chaotic, now that we've found a bit more balance in our lives I'm trying to remind myself to appreciate the little things.

We've been watching 90's movies, eating somewhat healthy, and drinking so much juice.
