Happy Happenings

Quinn had his big two month check-up today. Dr. Walton was very impressed with his activity, alertness and strength. She said she wouldn't be surprised if he started rolling over in the next few days. (I'm totally okay with him waiting a little longer for that milestone, I just got him to smile at me :)

His stats are as follows:

weight: 10lbs 7 oz

height: 22"

head circumference: 15.5"

He's measuring in the 55% for just about everything.

And, I have an NKBA seminar tonight. This is the first design seminar I will have been to in over a year and a half (I kinda dropped the ball when we left BYU-I). I am soooo excited! :) I have another seminar (ASID) next week as well. This will hopefully be an excellent networking utility for me as well an excellent learning opportunity. (Not to mention some much needed adult-to-adult interaction time)

Tonights topic is: Sexy Energy Efficent Lighting for Residences, with an Accent on Kitchens and Baths. - Sounds riveting!

Prego Pizza my butt!!!

It seems that the pregnancy pizza has stopped my contractions. Yes, stopped as in no longer there whatsoever. I guess this kid has decided that he wants to stay inside a bit longer. Which is fine by me, at least I'm not in constant discomfort any longer. However this does kinda stink considering I've left work already. :(
I do have to wonder though if the stress of work coupled with the stress of growing a person was the reason the contractions began in the first place. The body does know best after all.

Since I am officially on maternity leave I have been looking for various activites to fill my time. Yesterday I ran some errands, picked up an item from the post office, met Eric for lunch at school and relaxed a bit in between it all. Today, I gathered a few more items for earrings and went to work making the funnest earrings of all time. My friend Dawnelle, from the Interior Design Department at BYU-Idaho, first introduced me to these earrings my freshman year and I've loved them ever since. I figured, I'm in a pretty hip part of the country so why not be inspired by her design and make my own versions. And, viola:

My Tuesday accomplishment

And, its raining again today. Good thing my galoshes finally came in the mail. Watch out puddles here I come!

Desky Design

IKEA is a guilty pleasure of mine. Someday I will be able to afford quality furniture, but in the mean time I enjoy buying nice looking furniture for a reasonable price.

This is my latest IKEA find:

An all in one desk and shelving unit. It's perrrrrrfect for the tight space in the soon to be baby's room.

Thank you IKEA for understanding that poor college students need nice looking stuff too!

Color of the year 2010

In case you're wondering, the color of the year for 2010 is....teal.

Yeah... that's what I said. Are we back in the 80's or what?!?
