I recently bought this tray table from CB2 and I love it!  Right now I'm using it as an additional nightstand, but you can use it as a side table, an extra table when entertaining, or you can just separate the tray too.



I also bought these picture rails from Room and Board to display pictures above our sofa and bed. 



I knew Mr. Bee would love a sectional, though I probably would have picked something much more feminine, so we ordered this one from Pepperberry (a to the trade furniture store).  He's going to spend way more time on the sofa than me anyway.



To make it a bit more feminine though, we're using these legs instead.



I love so many things from Ballard Designs.  I wish they had a physical store in New York!  I want an oversized framed corkboard like this for my office, but this one is a little too pricey.  I could DIY, but I don't have the energy to do that right now.



Perhaps this linen pinboard from Pottery Barn instead?



We need some kind of organizational system in our entry hallway as well.  I'd like something more stylish than this from Pottery Barn, but haven't really found anything.



I love the charm of this rattan elephant hamper from Home Decorator's collection for the nursery, but it's a little pricey, so I'm still debating whether or not to buy it.



We lived essentially without any furniture in our last apartment -- we slept on a mattress on the floor for a year -- since I got pregnant and we knew that we'd be moving.  So we have lots of little organizational things we need to pull this apartment together.  It's a work in progress.

On the pregnancy front...

- My knuckles/joints in my hands are very swollen and sore -- my wedding ring hasn't fit for a couple months.  And I have bubble toes!
- Putting a motion sensor nightlight in the bathroom is the best thing I did recently!  I don't have to turn on the bright light for all those frequent late night trips to the bathroom.
- I'm so tired and ready to have this baby!

Today I'm considered full term!  This baby is cooked and ready to be born!  Though my official due date is December 10th, I'm really hoping the baby comes early.  Too early and it'll be Thanksgiving, too late and it'll be Christmas.  Besides I've been super uncomfortable for some time now, and this baby is grande.  There isn't much room left in my belly!

After Weddingbee blogger Miss Cheeseburger blogged about funfetti cake yesterday, I bought a box and made some.  I grew up on cake from a box, but hadn't had it in years.  Box cake is the best!


I'm going to watch the New Moon premiere at midnight tomorrow night.

We have no Thanksgiving plans this year since I can't be far from home, so I was thinking about hosting a dinner for other misfits.  What are you doing for Thanksgiving?
