[ Warded to Nehrus (minus Amala) ]
With all the work that's going into this room, I'm expecting the girls to love this room for as long as they're able to fit in those cribs!
Speaking of, I'm still waiting on that damn shipment. I told them in the first week. Are they not witches? How long does it take to get them here?! They also better send a prior warning before coming otherwise I'm going to choke someone if Amala happens to walk into the foyer and find them there.
Breathe, Deshan
Rashmi, most awesome female in the world after Amala and my mother, I could use a tiny bit of help getting the wardrobe...

I've been 21 since about a week ago. I feel no great change. Seeing that it was in the middle of the week, there wasn't much to do on the day of, but Quidditch tickets over the weekend made up for it. One of my better birthdays to date. My wife got a treat as well as I did. Definitely a whole loads better than the Christmas before. Getting a fever on your birthday and having a party night canceled is never fun.

All right. I consulted a source on curtains that is female but not Amala or my mother because she can't keep a fecking secret for anything. Devi said the silk curtains would work out great. They would just have to be a shade lighter than the rest of the room. When I told her we're going for purple, she gave me, well, several ideas.
Don't make fun of me just because I go to my younger sister for designed tips.
That Devi. She's simply a genius. Help me convince her that she should consider interior decorating as a career. Despite the fact that my father wants her to follow me and Amala. Not that I don't advocate that, but I could tell she doesn't like Hea
Sorry, going off on a tangent. So we're sticking with a purple theme, which is not only House-neutral but also a colour of royalty, and damnit, my little girls are going to be treated as such.

I think I've pretty much decided I probably don't want to stay in the Spell Damage ward after rotations. I think having ended up in there once this year already and then almost coming close to it again... then again, I still have two more rotation wards after this December, and I wouldn't be able to come to a conclusion just yet.
ID cards. Well, it would definitely come in convenience when you're bleeding worried about where a family member has gone to after a huge public event that ends in catastrophe.
Also, Amala. Do not go into the west-side room. That is all.

I'm an idiot. A complete idiot. And I'm partially afraid of what the hell the twins and Rashmi are going to think.
I shouldn't have moved away from her, even when it was just for a few minutes to get her something to drink. My wife is pregnant, and yet I leave her alone in a crowded room to get her something? I could have just taken her with me. She could have had worse than the bruises. What if she los
Fuck, Deshan, why can't you just stop thinking of what-ifs?
Also, must stop thinking about St. Mungo's

So, I have discovered that when you're trying to charm a bed different colours, it's not the best idea to do it while you're partially asleep, tired from a day's work and thinking about Hogwarts.
They were right... red and gold on a crib is actually a pretty bad idea, especially if there are pink bedsheets already in there. Oh, I think the pillow blew up, though
My sister recently sent me a letter describing her woes of being unable to attend the Masquerade. Somewhere in there, she wrote about how her life would be miserable for the rest of the year, or something, and how she wishes it was possible that students could choose weekends to go home whenever they feel because they don't have classes on Saturdays anyway. I don't know... I never minded Hogwarts Halloween dinners, especially with the food they'd serve. I was always partial to the pumpkin pie. I feel like I'm just on the receiving end of a hefty guilt trip, but it's not going to work this time.

I have find that when you have absolutely no ideas about some things in life that you thought you wouldn't be required to know -- like colour themes of babies' rooms or what couple costume to wear to the ball -- it helps having a sister who's more than excited to give suggestions. I was told Robin Hood and Maid Marian would suit us. As for the colour themes, she gave me far too many, I still don't know which one to use.
I also had to run away from Devi's psychotic obsessive friend quickly after that before I could really decide.
Why am I working on the baby room rather than my wife doing it, you might ask? I'm trying to stay on her good side. Plus what sort of bloke makes his pregnant wife work more than the Healer training she does anyway?

To-Do when not at work:
1. Get around to fixing up the nursery already
2. Surprise Amala with the colours.
I'm pretty much thinking if I threw in blue and silver with red and gold, somewhere in there, it would work out great. Except I know the pointed look I'm going to get from her so maybe... not.
Themes? Maybe? Fuck, I'm horrible at this. Devi's better but she's not going to come back till the winter hols, unless I pay her a visit during Hogsmeade weekend. Perhaps write a note to her this time instead of surprising her, so she can be warned ahead of time and keep the crazy blond roommate AWAY from me. Does a ring on the fucking finger not mean anything?!
3. Drinks. Whenever I can. Invite the twins, preferably after the upcoming game. Or for just a dinner before.

I think I'd prefer a night after work when I'm not looking at an empty room trying to figure out what would go where.
Dinner at the Patils?

Training for the day, done
Visited Marly, handed over her journal
More contemplation on what room to turn into a nursery
What are we doing? Why did this have to happen now? I'm all for starting a family, but why at a time when there's no sure way of knowing any place is going to be safe? It's not even a matter of feeling a tad bit safer if you're Pure. There were a whole mix at St. Mungo's when they attacked, and another mix at King's Cross.
What if they attack and we lose the twins? Or I lose all three?
Should sleep now. She's out already.

Everyone, I'd like to make what's most likely the best PSA I'd ever made.
My darling wife is pregnant. The Patils are going to be parents. Holy fucking shite!
