Twin Nursery Photos!

Here is the debut pictures of our nursery!  It is very WHITE, but I know it will brighten up once we get the newborn pictures hung and the beautiful prints we will purchase to go over the cribs from Etsy.  We need the stats on the babies to order them, but they will look like this.

If you know our house, this used to be our guest room/office. 

Here are the cribs!  Our colors are gray and pink and these are two swings that were handed to us as loaner swings and we didn't have to purchase a thing!  What a blessing!  We are waiting for a small area rug with gray zig-zag stripes to go on the floor here.
 Here is my nursing couch and twin nursing pillow all ready to go!  (Thanks to another twin mom to passing her pillow on to me!) The picture above the couch was also given to us as a hand-me-down from another friends' nursery!  I have heard nursing twins at the beginning can be a 70 minute process per feed, so we will be getting a lot of use out of this seating location! ;)
 Another one of the cribs with the boppy pillows.  We are assuming our babies will love them as much as our previous boys!  Don't worry, they will be supervised at night so they won't suffocate!  Also, we have video monitors over each crib.  This is our first time to use these, but feel with four kids they really are a necessity this time, although we did purchase the dual-camera system from someone in my mom's group at a great discount!  The changing table in the back was hand-made by a dad in our bible study.  They want to keep the piece of furniture as a family heirloom, but don't want to store it, so are passing it along for us to use.  It is so perfect for twins because it is large and sturdy!  We feel so blessed to have it to use for our babies!
This is the closet..hard to get good shots but you can see how many clothes these sweet ones have!!!  This is only sizes up to 3-6 months!  Here is the boy side!
Here is the girl side!  We have been overwhelmed with the generosity of some of our girl mommy friends who have literally given my tubs and tubs and tubs of BEAUTIFUL and new girl clothes!!  Wow!!!  No worries, this little girl will be in NO brown and blue! ;)
 So, things are coming together!  We are picking up our minifridge for the nursery on Wednesday and just have a few breastfeeding items to buy.  I need to pack the hospital bag, but I am not ready to do that yet!  I cannot even consider these babies coming before 37 weeks! ;)  I am still in a state of shock and disbelief, although my baby bump has become one of much gawking and commentary!!  Amazing what some will say to a stranger, but we are just so thankful the babies have made it this far and seem strong and healthy!  I see the high risk doctor Wednesday, so praying for good news.  And, we are 99% on names and are just so excited about them, although plan to formally announce when the babies are born!  It has been a long process for us, but I pray we have made the right choice and am super excited to announce the boy's name especially!!  We are super excited about him, too!!  Many people say, "at least you get your girl" but really, we are just thrilled to be blessed with two more healthy babies!!  Although, ask me in a month and I may not be feeling so jovial about it all until we can dig out from the newborn transition phase! ;)  Thank you for your prayers and support!  We are so abundantly blessed!!
