Gosh, Paula, it's nice to *see* you. :-) How is everything going?

Hi Brigitte!

Sorry it took me so long to respond... my internet connection has been
down for days. Grrrrr.

Everything is going pretty well! The girls have started rice cereal
and strained veggies, which is fun for all of us :-). They are also
both rolling, Cassie both ways and Olivia just from tummy to back.
Olivia has started physical therapy due to her low muscle tone and she
is gaining strength by leaps and bounds; she can finally hold up her
head with just the barest amount of shakiness (after being completely
unable to lift it about 2 months ago).

They are both over 12 pounds, and Olivia is *almost* 13. The best part
about their growth is that they are finally on the growth charts for
head circumference, and Olivia is on the chart for length. Still only
about 5th percentile, but it's a huge step for them to actually be ON
the chart! If you'd like to see pictures, check out

I'm hanging in there, but it's going to be a long winter. We're all
basically sequestered for cold and flu season, so the only time I
leave the house during the day is to take the girls to the doctor
every couple of weeks, and occasional trips to my mom's. I'm starting
to feel a bit "caged", but it won't last forever.

How are you doing? I checked a.i.pg for an update and didn't see
anything, so I trust all is well. :-)

Paula
Olivia & Cassie, born 4/8/03 @ 26 weeks
^Grace^ (b. 5/16/02 d. 5/17/02) & ^Adam^ (b/d. 5/17/02)

BTDT. Not fun. Hang in there. Spring is not too far away. :-)

I'm going for my check-up to the OB tomorrow. I'm 28 weeks now.
There's not much going on with this pregnancy other than restless legs
and heartburn. :-)

Here's some belly pictures we took last night. My body seems to have
remembered the twin pregnancy. I've only gained 10 pounds but I've gone
*sproing*. LOL!
