trying to symmetrically shrink height of a nav containing elements

Im trying to shrink the height of the nav bar about 1-2 em from top and 1-2 em from bottom, so about 32px total. The idea is to have the circle sticking out higher and lower than the black nav bar, while keeping everything aligned. I'm using basscss http://www.basscss.com/. What do I need to do? Here is the pen: http://codepen.io/codemmonkey/pen/EjJQmP?editors=110

thanks!
