So Queenie FINALLY got her act together today. 
She was 5-6 days past her due date and had been leading us on with random contractions and disappearing ligaments for more than a week. She was big enough we were thinking triplets, but it was just twins - big ones, and believe it or not...they were both does!!! It about knocked my socks off (current count is 6 does, 0 bucks).
We had a bit of a scare with the first baby (the black and brown one). She presented head first with one leg forward and one back. I tried to reposition her, but she came too fast, so I pulled while Queenie pushed. Poor mama was exhausted after that, and she didn't stand up at all until a little while after the second doe was born (the mostly white tri-color). After Queenie took a breather, she was up and the girls were nursing like pros.
A little wet and goopy, but very cute!
We thought Sophie was going to pop tonight too. She was definitely having sympathy contractions - I thought I might have to juggle two births at once, but the contractions eased up, and she went back to chewing her cud.

Not sure - it's really pure, dumb luck. I guess our bucks were better than we thought they were. They were both first time breeders, so we honestly had no idea how successful it would be.
Lucy surprised us by popping this afternoon - we thought she had a few more days. I got her into a birthing stall minutes before she went into heavy labor. I'll give more details and pictures tomorrow, but she had a cute tri-colored doeling and our first buckling.
