Hi Dianna:

The color will depend on what kind of tile and counter top you are using, however what has been on trend for the last several years are gray tones. Benjamin HC-171 Wickham Gray has been a favorite ofmine as of late, it has a hint of blue to it that is very crisp feeling. As for a shower would be sufficient, considering there is at least one bath in the house that could be used for a child. Good Luck!

Thanks so much. I had already sort of liked paint color silver city by Behr. The bathtub was a major question my husband and I were having.
