Chatted to Julie this morning

And apparently Charlie is doing really well.

Tertia: what new tricks can your son do? 
Julie: well, he's learned his multiplication tables.
Julie: tomorrow i'm teaching him to tie his shoes.

That child is so advanced.

BTW, my appointment is late today, so the Monday update will only appear later.  Feeling horribly nervous, as always.  It's the big growth scan.  Sigh.  I have scanophobia.  Extreme fear of the shit news a scan could bring.

Hey now, Tertia - things are going well so far. Hard to say, "Don't be anxious," when I know how hard it really is so I'll just say my thoughts are with you and your babies. I, like everyone else in blogland, will be 'anxiously' awaiting your latest post. Keep up the good baking there, mum.

let us know how the stick test for protienuria(sp?) goes, too. the swelling you wrote about last time has me a tiny bit worried. but then, i had preeclampsia, and from now on i will see it lurking around every pregnant friend's corner.

i've been wondering about charlie...is he in the same town as julie and paul now? or is he still in connecticut?

Oh my! My six year old can't tie her shoes and my ten year old struggles with her mulitplication. Imagine the horror that a premie has surpassed them.

That Charlie is brilliant. Math, already? Damn.

Thanks for letting internet know your scan is later today, save us all a lot of compulsive visits & screen refreshes.

Understand about scanophobia. Be sending relaxing, calming, positive vibes your way, k?

Darn. And I thought I had timed my check-in perfectly to see your update.

I'll be thinking of you, my brave friend.

Holding your had in spirit today at your scan!

I'll check back in later to see how it all went.

keeping my fingers crossed everything goes well today! My nephew's gf is going for her ultrasound today as well. She's having twins too and is right there with you time-wise.
Cant wait for an update on how your appt went.

Hoping everything continues to go well. By the way, I had the most interesting dream about you and the twins last night - a good dream, but weird none the less. I'm not comfortable posting it in your comments section, so if you are at all curious - send me an e-mail and I'll tell you!

Damn that Julie--always showing everyone up ;)

I'll be thinking of you and your scan all day. Can't wait to read how beautifully you are doing and the wonders of Adam and Kate!
