Well, now that the expansion of the third floor is done and all the junk has been removed from the nursery, my mom and I have spent the last 2 weekends getting it organized and ready for the boys. I wish I had thought to take a picture when it was literally stuffed from wall to wall (including the insides of the closets!) so you had a true sense of how much work she has done with me to get organized. Jason worked like a manual laborer along with my mom moving the large items out of the room last weekend and then mom and I tackled the task of baby items.
We decided to organize the boys 'stuff' into 3 sections: Newborn, 0-3 months, 3-6 months. For each hanging rack there is a shelf for onsies, bottoms, jackets/t-shirts, PJs, sleepsacks according to size. One the side of each hanging rack is hanging clothes associated with that size. To the left of the Newborn rack is all the 'triple items' that we have. We realized that we have TONS of 0-3, 3-6 month stuff but not much newborn which makes sense with a full-term baby. Not sure how quick the boys will grow into the 0-3 month size but we can always 'pad' them if we have to!
We also have baskets/bins for burp cloths, socks, towels/wash cloths, toiletries, hats and shoes (broken down by sizes)
Here are pictures of each closet to give you a visual of what has been done. Now we (meaning Jason) will paint and organize the crib(s) and get furniture put into place. Then we will be ready for the boys to make their arrival. However boys, don't get any funny ideas, the middle of January is still the plan!
