Nursery theme help

Talk about cart before horse here since we are on a TTC hiatus (DH just got accepted to the fire department and we are waiting until he gets out of recruit school to start TTC again).  ANYWHO....for the last year or more we've been pretty set on a woodlands theme for the eventual nursery.  Light green walls, wood furniture, and this bedding set:

But now I am leaning towards a gray, navy and white theme of Beluga whales.  I took a great deal of inspiration from Rocco's nursery here (we would still use dark wood furniture):

So I'm asking you all what you prefer.  We aren't going to be team green but we want a theme or scheme that is gender neutral.  Thanks!

I don't know why links aren't working today...sorry.

    I say wait till you actually get pregnant. Don't have your heart set on a particular idea/items, there were a few things I really wanted since 3 years ago that they are discontinued now! There is always newer/fresher ideas. Sometimes some themes get over played, too. Like the owel theme was cute and fresh a few years ago, now they are every where!

    I would personally wait until you are expecting. You may change your mind a thousand times. I know I have!
    Married my BEST FRIEND on December 1, 2007. Started TTC in March 2008. Found out we were expecting our first child in October 2008 - but had a m/c in December 2008 - resulting in a d&e. Met with a RE in May 2009 and set a plan - but conceived unexpectedly on our own! Our precious little Sophia was born on February 9, 2010! Lilypie Third Birthday tickers

    I like both, but the whale seems more masculine.

    I think you should prob wait to make a final decision til baby's arrival is imminent, however a girl can dream these things for sure! I'm dreaming up baby 2's nursery now and were not planning to ttc for another 6 months!

    personally, I like the whales better. You can do a lot with either theme, but my personal preference is when you can do a lot more unique things... and with the whales since its not a super popular theme you will have a harder time finding premade stuff for it... which will force you to come up with other ideas and DIY stuff, in the end it will be very very unique and one of a kind!
