6 weeks home!

Well we have been home 6 weeks now! Wednesday afternoon was the day, and amazingly Pasha has started eating better too that very day! Every meal since then he's eaten pretty well too! He's almost eating as much as my other two American toddlers! Callen is eating too much, he has some food issues and freaks out if others have food and he doesn't. We are trying to give him things that aren't bad for him like dry Cheerios and fruit but he's eating so much he's getting chubbier. He came home weighing 32 lbs and now weighs 36.....uh yeah he's a chunk. He has an appointment next month at a diabetic/endocrinology clinic because some of his labs were concerning. They suspect that he has juvenile diabetes but of course want to do more testing and rule other things out too. 

Next week Pasha has an appointment to be fitted for a manual wheelchair, car seat and bath and toilet equipment. I'm hoping that the wheelchair will be ready by the time school starts, I was told he has to have a chair to start classes. So if his isn't ready we may have to rent one for him. Both boys are doing really really great considering where they were less than 2 months ago, we still are working on things but I did successfully take all 4 little ones to Target last week with my parents and no one had a meltdown! Yay!!! In other news our house is going on the market today..... We didn't know the full extent of Pasha's condition of course until we got to Ukraine and met him. We had hoped he would be able to stand at least someday and possibly walk with a walker. We realized upon seeing him that wasn't going to happen and several doctors have confirmed our concerns. He *might* stand someday but that's a very slim possibility and it wouldn't be alone he'd need lots of medical equipment to do it and more surgeries just for that slight possibility. So long story short we are looking for a house we can handicap equip easier and one that's close to town for all the dr and therapy appointment both boys will need. Also we need another bedroom......more about that later:)
