It's a baby girl!!! :) ahahah lol My desk - what a cute little petite thing she is...right now, everything all around is in a total mess, but these pictures will suffice for now. Now I am in need of a coaster for my mug... I think that will be my midnight project tonight! Yesterday Emily [girl who I babysit] and her best friend Claudia and I went down to Soho to the The Drawing Center - if you live in NYC or are visiting, try and make a pit stop and then cross the street to the "The Drawing Room"- Right now are colored pencil drawings that are so beautiful - some were done over a span of 10+ years. The girls and I decided that Alan Serat [the artist] must have done one stroke a day.... ahh you have to see it to understand what I am talking about. :/ After those two places, we cruised over to Evolution...a very cool store if your into bones, fossils, insects, rocks etc! I picked up a piece of pyrite that is so beautiful it has made me want to start a collection!

that's an awfully small desk or those are very very large books. i like the life size desk though. it bears a simple elegance.

Ooh, that desk is awesome (love the miniature model too -took me a while to work out that it wasn't your 'actual' desk :) ). The joints on the sides are so cleverly put together -beautiful!

ah! thanks for sharing. i agree... the joints. sweet. what a perfect little computing space for you.
i couldn't help but notice the children's books above it...which reminded me of a book i just bought lucas. it's called, "the monster and the end of this book" starring grover. i had it when i was a kiddo. the text is handwritten and the illustration is full of sweet doodles. it reminded me alot of you and your mad skills. love, lin
