Raspberry or mini duck?


Week 8: Raspberry
Our baby is growing like mad, putting on about a millimeter every day and continuing to straighten out in the trunk. Though I can't feel it yet, this little one is moving it's arms, legs and (now only slightly) webbed fingers and toes like crazy. Webbed? Like duck feet?
I'm feeling some days like crap, some days like a million bucks...okay, let's not go that far...maybe half a million? Still tired, a little nauseous, and I definitely suffer from brain drain from time to time. I've noticed my tolerance for bullshit is nill. Things I tolerated (barely) before piss me off to no end right now. I try to keep my mouth shut though for fear that exactly what I'm thinking will fly out of my mouth. I don't think telling those I'd like to tell where to go would be of any benefit to me at this particular time, because there would be no holding back. Enough of that, before I let names slip.
The nursery is half way set up as well. We have a crib now, and the bedding set arrived, so this weekend I positioned the changing table, and the crib around, and made the bed ( of course I have to unmake it because I will need to wash the crib sheet and put a waterproof mattress pad on the mattress. I also hung the valance, and put up some decorative shelves. Currently it's very....neutral. A little boring. Still have some decisions to make on wall decor, and I think I'm avoiding a cutesy theme. I'm trying to keep it baby sophisticated. I know it's a nursery, but I've been working on developing a flow in the way the house is decorated, so I'm trying to be somewhat consistent. I'll take some pictures when it has a bit more personality.
That's all I have for today. Needing to get my butt to bed. I slept almost 10 hours last night, but was still tired today. It just never seems to be enough.
