At 28 weeks my baby is weighing about 2lb and 3oz and has an 80% chance of surviving unscathed if she is born. These are good statistics :-)
Today we have been painting what will be the nursery in PINK. This is the first time I have ever painted a room PINK. It felt quite strange, I can tell you. As soon as it started going on the walls G & I looked at each other and commented how odd this felt. I am so used to neutral or boy-ish colours that PINK is a totally alien shade. It's a bit like walking around Toys R Us when you have sons. You go through all the cars, trucks, trains, etc, then on your way out you walk past this area full of pink sparkly scary stuff with abnormally large asian looking eyes and hooker-style clothing, and it all seems so wrong, somehow!
Anyway, it looks nice. I chose 2 shades of pink - one is barely pink and is on the main walls. Then there's a slightly darker (but not much, it's subtle) shade which is on the area below the shelf which runs around 2 of the walls... the shelf top being white. It's good. I like it. Now we have to put some new carpet in and new skirting boards and switches, plugs, light fittings... and it's ready to furnish in girly fabrics and decor. Oeer.
