Trying to figure out how to teach three languages to our soon to come twins?

My husband is Armenian and I am Mexican. My husband speaks a good amount of Spanish and we both speak English. I have 2 amazing stepchildren, 9yr old girl and 11yr old boy. They only speak English. We have twins on the way and are trying to figure out how to teach them all three languages. We would love to teach them all three languages from the start but are trying to figure out the best way. We were thinking of my husband speaking Armenian to them, I would speak Spanish to them and our other two children speaking to them in English. The only tricky part would be when we are all together what language do we speak considering our other two children only speak English. In addition to that I am an elementary teacher and would love to teach them their letters, letter sounds and numbers in English before going to school but will that confuse them since I speak to them in Spanish?
