The only things we actually use in the nursery at the moment are the change table (it's where the nappies and everything are stored too) and the wardrobe for clothes. There's also a bookshelf but all books are in the family room, a cot but DS is in our room, and a rocking chair. I can't see myself using the rocking chair until the same as I did with DD - once he's in his own room and I go down there for night time wake up feeds.
What will Stormy be sleeping in in your room? Can you just move that to the nursery when Stormy does? If not and you want something there now, I guess it'll depend on how old he/she will be when they move into the nursery - old enough for a bed or still needing a cot? We only took the side off DD's bed and put a rail on when she was around 18 months I think.
Oh one invaluable thing we have in there is a toy hammock. Every single man and his dog thinks a kid needs a new huge stuffed toy every week. They get put in the toy hammock so they're off the floor and out of the way.
