Two Minutes

So, my interview only lasted 2 minutes. I didn't feel as if I said anything wrong. I actually felt it went pretty well. Except the fact it was only 2 minutes. So, what do you think the chances are that I will get an offer from a 2 minute interview?

Wonder if they could tell I am pregnant?

Waste of Time?

Well, I am off to go probably waste an hour. I have an interview with a contemporary furniture as a sales person. I am not a sales person. Even though I would rather be a sales person at a contemporary furniture than anywhere else. But I can't depend on a commission job right now. And I am not sure if it would be worth it to drive all the way to greenhills.

And it's hard to get excited when I look pregnant and I only really have 3 months left of work time till I will need off. And I am no idiot, the likelihood of me actually getting a job at this point is pretty slim.

But I am off. At least I will get out of the house.

Scrabble Anyone

So, I have had this idea for a scrabble board art work for a few months now. Its close to being done. There are some other finishing touches I want to do. But I am so excited I wanted to go ahead and post a picture. It is centered around the upcoming arrival of OWEN HAMPTON.

Oh boy the baby stuff

Things are starting to come together.
This weekend Jon and I went to our very first consignment sale together. And that will be the last sale Jon will EVER go to. He was just in a hurry to get out of there and was more a pain in the ass then the brawn I wanted. But I feel we scored. We bought a swing, a pack and play, a baby carrier, a little gym and a small breast pump. All for $110.
We then went to spend the day with his mother for her birthday. That day we went to Burlington to look at baby stuff and I bought some maternity tops. We then went to Babys R Us where we pretty much finished all the big baby stuff needs. We have the crib and changing table. The bedding, with mobile and window valance. The car seat, stroller and bouncy seat is also taken care of.
I know what colors I want to paint in the room, just need to figure out the little details.

OH to be a designer

Sometime it's hard for me to be a designer. It's always a guessing game in my head. I love design. I love color. I love paint. I love fabric. But it's so frustrating when dealing with my own space. I can never make a decision. I second guess all my decisions. I can never just let it be.
I want my baby boy's room to be awesome. And I just keep thinking it will turn out blah. But then I know that it's really not important. He will not know the difference whether the walls are white, pink or a time consuming jungle mural room. The only thing that matters is that I take care of him and love him with all my heart.

I just need to keep reminding myself of that.

22 weeks

Last week was week 22. Jon and I had to go into a genetic specialist to see if the cyst had gone away. It has. I wasn't worried. Thank God.
We finally settled on a name (i think). We have decided on Owen. Not common or "traditional" but not unique and weird. You see it and know exactly how to pronounce it and spell it. Which is something important to me.

Here is a picture of our little guy.
Well I am not sure how "little" he is.
At 22 weeks he is supposed to be a little under 1lb
And the Ultrasound tech says they estimate him to be:
1lb 4oz. Yes, its an estimate but maybe this is a sign of a big baby.

Give Aways!
