Friday! We made it. It’s been a busy one over here at the Matkovic house with so many fun things coming up that I can’t wait to share. Aside from work, we are finishing up the room refresh of my office with Taylor from Home Taylored- just waiting on a few items to arrive and for the walls to be painted. I can’t wait to show you the color and finish we chose.
Read MoreHappy Friday, folks! It’s been a long time since I’ve put together a Friday favorites post- well over a year- but it’s one of the weekly posts that I used to look forward to the most, and one that I’m super excited to get back to publishing regularly.
Read MoreCheers to the freakin’ weekend, kids. This week week started out a little strange, but we found our groove and so much joy in the simple routines of our daily life together. We’ve been focused on being present; and embracing all the tiny moments- good, bad and everything in between.
Read MoreHappy Friday, kids! It’s hard to believe it’s the last Friday before Christmas. Where has the month gone??
This week was our first of Maddie’s winter break, and we’ve been spending lots of quality time together as a family. We’ll be home for the next few weeks, meaning I need to plan some serious activities for our girl.
Read MoreHappy Friday, kids! It’s been such a great week over here- with lots of birthday celebrations, quality time spent with family and friends, and even a little dinner date at a spot I’ve been dying to try for months. This weekend the plans call for zero plans- just some lazy days by the fire and a few home-cooked meals. Here’s to a beautiful fall weekend- hope it’s a great one!

How is it the last one of the month? October has flown by, and I can’t believe our little babe is already seven weeks old! My thirty-fifth birthday is just around the corner in early November, but I’ll be celebrating with the girls this Saturday; and I can’t wait to get dressed up, kick back and enjoy a drink or two with some friends that I haven’t seen since before I found out we were having Baby Number Two.

This week was a short one for us- or at least I made it that way. Phil was off on Monday, and for the third year in a row I accidentally kept MM home, thinking she was off too. I would blame it on all the moving parts around here these days; but, if I’m being honest, I’m pretty sure I would have kept her home had I remembered. There’s really nothing better than these rare days when we can be together just us four , and I would feel weird sending her to school while Dad gets the day off to play.
Read MoreHappy Friday, kids! I’m officially 38 weeks today, and at this point, you could say I’m BEYOND ready to meet your girl. I took it pretty easy this past week, but I did manage to pop into our local Jojo Maman Bébe to try out their Maternity VIP Service- a personal shopping experience for expectant mothers.
Read More35 weeks today and I really can’t believe it. I’ve been pregnant this entire year; it’s gone by SO quickly, and yet I still feel like I’ve been pregnant FOREVER.
Only a few more weeks before we’ll be welcoming our next love, and we are counting down the seconds until we get to meet her.

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is officially open to the public, meaning a lot of my original picks are either sold out or running way low; so I’ve updated my favorites for you here. I was able to snag two of my top picks at 12:30- this coat that is making me so excited for Fall, and this dreamy turtleneck sweater that will be oversized enough for my soon-to-be postpartum bod.
Read MoreIt’s that time of year again: The N Sale is upon us. And if you follow even a single blogger on social media, I’m sure you’ve already heard all about it.
If I’m being totally honest, I was hesitant to shop the sale this year. For one, I’m not a fashion blogger.
Read MoreAnother short week that flew by quick. And even graced us with an unseasonably warm winter day. Wednesday brought us all the sunshine and blue skies, making me itch for spring and summer even more. Maddie returned to school after a week of vacation, and she was more than happy to get back to her routine.
Read MoreAfter weeks of anticipation, our Aspen girls’ trip has finally arrived. Yesterday we headed west for a weekend of ski, spa and lots of toasts in celebration of my baby sister’s upcoming wedding.
Read MoreIt has been a WEEK, folks. But we made it.
Potty training is no joke, people. It is certainly ranked as one of the hardest things we've done in parenthood so far. Boy, did it take a lot out of me; and I can only imagine how frustrating it can be for a tiny two-year-old.
Read MoreWow. The past week has flown by. It's been a whirlwind filled with a few ups and downs- don't worry, I'm working away on a post about it all to share very soon.
And while there have been a few tears recently, they've all been overshadowed with the joy of soaking in the holiday season.
Read MoreThis weekend will be my first full weekend away from my little family.
Actually, it's technically a long weekend away, as I'll be spending three nights down in Atlanta to celebrate my ten-year college reunion. But who's counting, besides maybe my husband?
