I am kinda obsessed with this lamp

The Original Verner Panton (1964) Fun lamp, large one is 18"X24", small one is 11"X17". Stainless steel and handcut mother-of-pearl.
West Elm had a similar lamp put it just doesn't look quite as nice....

Can I trust the fortune cookie?

Well, I want to!!
I got chinese food for lunch yesterday with my cowork Jerry, and my fortune tells me that "Three months from this date, something very good is in store for you." So, 11/28/09 may just be the big day!!(for once, the fortune cookie actually is applicable to me in a somewhat specific way.)I so would love to meet baby a week early =). (kev also believes that all of Ruby's Pubs were born day after Thankging).

here's for the day after Thanksgiving baby & mama:

Begining of the Nursery Project

Kevin and I took last Friday off, we were finally able to clear the "office" of all the books and our other paper work Crap. Before we went on a rafting trip to the south fork of the American river. I must say I am a proud mama for sporting this belly on some white water (almost 26weeks)! (too bad no pictures were taken of me actually in the rapids)


getting back to the nursery, here's where we are so far, all the empty shelves, half of them to be removed, oh, did I mentioned that I can't wait to get rid that headache inducing yellow paint!!

More nursery inspirations

24weeks Belly Shot

I officially eat more than Kevin... and enlist ice cream as my secret weapon against stretch marks (as I was told that they form from within, underneath the skin surface). So far it's working...

All this Kicking...

I think we are raising a little belly drummer!!
So I am finally feeling some full kicks now, k was able to feel 3 in a row last night, pretty strange but exciting at the same time.
I first started feeling somthing around 17week, but while chilling on aunt Lisa's deck a week later on July 4th, I knew I was feeling our little peanut!
