Twins?????
  I had a doctor's appointment today. It was interesting... First of all, I'm supposed to be 13 weeks and i'm measuring 16-18 weeks. Dr tried for the heartbeat and found it and then moved it around to see if he heard any other heartbeats, he found another one about 1.5-2 inches from the other one. It was faint and had the same rhythm as the first one so he said it was "probably" the same heartbeat. He said he wouldn't rule out twins but he thought that there was only one baby in there. HA!  He also said we would have to just wait until my ultrasound to know for sure!  That's not until APRIL 25th!!!!!  Bah I don't wanna wait that long!!  Oh and my blood pressure was 140/100 and my urine is testing positive for protein and keytones!  Anyway, doctor wants to see me in 10 days for another BP check and said I may have to go on blood pressure meds!  He also said he would try and hear the heartbeat again.  I'm really nervous about the blood pressure thing because I was put on bedrest when I was pregnant with Jules because of it.  It really sucked but I didn't have 2 kids back then.. I don't know what i'll do if I have to go on bedrest this time.  So please pray with me that my body does what it is supposed to do!!  Also please pray that I can get the confirmation on the twins thing. 

As for Julianna's schooling.. the kids spent the day at their nanny's today, thankfully I had the foresight to bring her schoolbooks with her so we were able to do school today at nanny's house.  Nanny and Grampa D were very impressed on how well she is reading her BOB books.  I'm proud of her.  I think she was a little proud of herself too. 

Julianna's newest word now is Awesome.  She says it about everything and I have to say it's DARN CUTE!   Hee hee.  Toby's newest thing now is "no I self"  and he wants to do EVERYTHING himself.  It can drive me crazy at times when it's cold outside and he's struggling to get himself up into the van but it's easier to let him do it than listening to him cry when I do it for him.  Although sometimes I can say "No mommy self" and he is like "oh mommy self okay"  hee hee.

anyway, it's past the kids bedtime, Jeff's working late and Toby is playing with his trucks on the couch with just a soggy diaper on so I guess I better get back to mommy mode and change him and get them both to bed.  Jules wants to gargle water and spit it in the sink when she brushes her teeth.. Oh the things that kids find fun!

Hummmmmm, I secretly hope it is twins! Perhaps my hunch about Mel's two heartbeats will end up being you instead!
God Bless ya Tash.
May God wrap his hands around this or these babies and protect them and you from any and all harm.
Hugs

Twins?? You haven't mentioned twins on the boards. Now I really can't wait for your U/S.
