The Cruise - Our "Suite" Accommodations!

We were so excited when we walked into our family suite! We're used to just one small, interior cabin. This was a mansion in comparison!

This is the "master bedroom".
Here is the "master bath", complete with a full size bathtub!
Here is the living area. The door to the balcony opened off of the room. This room also had 2 couches that folded out into beds. The couch was SO nice for nursing twins!
Gage hanging out in the living room!
This was the second bedroom. You could get to it from the living room and it also had it's own door to the hallway. It was so nice to have this separate bedroom - we set up the twins' cribs in this room and we could shut the door when they were sleeping!
Here's what our room looked like after a few days - very lived in! I could have moved in forever! As you can see, we had room service quite a bit. So nice to call down and have a delicious piece of chocolate cake delivered to your room!
PERKS OF HAVING A SUITE:

There were so many "extras" that came along with having a suite. The huge rooms and extra space was just the beginning.

We had fresh flower arrangements - even in the bathroom!
Upon arrival, we had fresh flowers in the living room. Then we kept getting deliveries. Fresh chocolate-covered strawberries. A fresh fruit basket (we got one every day!)...
... champagne!!!
Fresh flowers to wear for formal night!
Every night we could order "canapes". This particular evening I got tuxedo strawberries and salmon with caviar.
Free mini-bar!!!
We even got our laundry done for free! I had to take this picture because I thought it was so funny how they even put all of the baby clothes on separate hangers!
We had so much room that I was able to set up an entire area devoted to feeding the babies (the cruise provided the baby food!).
This is usually where we fed the babies (when we were in the room). We fed them by the pool a lot, too.
One of the best perks of having a suite was having the bathtub! It was so much easier to give the boys baths instead of showers! And they had so much fun in the tub together!
We also got to eat a full, made-to-order, sit-down breakfast in one of the fancy restaurants. Complete with mimosas and bloody marys!!! This particular morning, we were the only ones there!!
