Happy Friday y'all! I am definitely ready for the weekend. It feels a little weird to say that while on maternity leave but I am. I have some fun plans this weekend and am ready to round out my busy week with a busy weekend. First, let's review the week then finally sharing my Stitch Fix from last month
1. WEEK THREE
This week was a significantly better week with her. On Monday we had a doctor appointment for Reese to check her weight again. Good news finally! She was up in weight again so we do not have to come back again until the two month appointment. Hooray! She also was pretty chill all week. A few fussy moments here and there but nothing crazy. A successful week!

2. WERK
Ok so I am not at work, BUT given that Reese was in such good spirits all week it allowed me to get a lot of things done. I got a bunch of blog pics taken, cleaned up a bit, did a couple of workouts and ran some errands. It felt good to get my head on straight a bit and get some things in order.
3. GAELIC STORM AND ADULT TIME
This week we were lucky enough to go out twice. If you read my Monday post you saw that we scored free tickets to the Gaelic Storm show on Tuesday......from the band themselves. One of the coolest things that has ever happened to me. We were just talking to them and they offered us 4 tickets! Who were we to turn them down? I am so glad that we went. We went with my parents and D. An absolutely fantastic show because not only are they talented musicians but they are hilarious. One of the best shows I have been to.
On Wednesday my sister-in-law also offered to babysit for a few hours. We took this opportunity to do dinner and a movie. Dinner was nothing fancy, just Chinese, but we went to see Logan (the new Wolverine movie) as we were dying to see it and unsure we were going to make it there. It was a fantastic movie. If you are a Marvel fan this will not disappoint, a real departure but a great film.
4. ADVENTURES WITH INFANTS
I had to run a few errands this week with Reese by my side. The most daring was brining her down to Mall of America. It is a bit of a hike from home and everything with her takes twice as long. I had to go down there to exchange something from Zara and that is the only one in the state. Good news is she behaved the whole time. Bad news is she got hungry on the ride home and there was nowhere to pull over. Le sigh.
5. STITCH FIX
So this is a major delay and I apologize. I wanted some time with the clothes post-pregnancy before reviewing. My stylist has kind of been knocking out of the park lately and this box was no exception. Let's review.
TAI MEI OPAL EAR CLIMBERS
These have quickly become my go-to earrings. The hint of pastel in the opal work perfectly with the nudes and blush tones for Spring. The climbers are small and subtle so they are perfect for every day wear. They were a little on the expensive side so I debated, but after trying them for a few days I knew I needed them.

THREADS 4 THOUGHT CHLOE MOTO DETAIL JOGGER
I loved these the second I saw them. I am sucker for anything moto. Just a weakness of mine. I told my stylist I would need some good loungewear as I would be going on maternity leave, but wanted to stay fashionable. She delivered. These joggers are ridiculous comfortable. Super soft inside and the moto pattern makes me feel chic even when at home getting spit up on. I wore these a few times even when I was pregnant and have quickly become a staple.

SUPPLY & DEMAND CIPON EMBROIDERED BOMBER JACKET
This was another major win from this basket. I have really loved the bomber jacket trend and the embroidery trend. This is the perfect combo of each. Just throw this over a tee shirt with some jeans and it's all you need. This jacket takes care of it for you. I look forward to working this into my rotation more often as the weather warms up. Feels a little silly to wear it under a winter coat right now. However, I love the embroidery on this one. The color allows for a real variety of pairings which is key to me when buying new pieces.

MARKET & SPRUCE SAM HI-LO SLEEVE TEE
This tee was nothing really special. I mean it works for just lounging at home, which is what I asked for. However, I typically by my tees at Target because you really don't need to spend more than $5 on a basic tee. However, given that the rest of the box was so fantastic it was cheaper to buy the whole box then to send back this one item.

STITCHES AND STRIPES KAYLEEN BACK STITCH PULLOVER
The last piece was another big win. It seems like a simple black sweater but the back is sheer with some lining. A little risque and I won' t be able to wear it to work without a tank top but I really love it. I exchanged it for a bigger size because I was not sure how I would look post pregnancy. In retrospect I could have kept the smaller size, but the bigger size is a little longer and I prefer that. This sweater is also nice and light so those chilly Spring nights this will be well used.
