Embellish

Celebrian heaved herself away from where she leaned heavily against the wall, one hand supporting her swollen abdomen. She was decorating the baby's room, with the hindrance of her young sons. Their daughter's due date was just over a month away and she and Elrond had decided it was about time they got the room ready.

'Nana, this should go here,' Elladan decided, pulling the rocker to the middle of the room.

Elrohir cocked his head to one side. 'And the crib should go right beside it so you can sleep while feeding the baby and putting it to bed.'

Celebrian laughed dryly. As if the baby weren't enough to wear her out! However, she did not have the heart to turn her boys out the room. 'I think the crib and the rocker should stay where they were before,' she suggested carefully. 'Hold on and I will be right back,' she added. 'I am getting a drink.'

When she came back, she started, then groaned as the child inside her protested with a stern kick. The walls were streaked with green and blue. At one end of the room stood Elladan and Elrohir,covered in paint themselves, while the floor was covered in small foot prints.

'Erestor says colours help people to be cheerful,' Elrohir explained. 'I think that our baby is going to be very unhappy if it has to stare at white walls all the time.'

Celebrian sank against the wall again, raking her hand down her face. 'And here I thought I was the decorator.'

A/N: I trust this isn't too long... I know drabbles are supposed to be fifty words or so, but I hope I can make an exception!
