some news...

ok this week we learned markus does hear us he just choses not to listen typical male thing i guess. they arent diagnosising him autistic they are going to track him for a year or so and then re test if he doesnt progress..both the boys have great teeth, which surprised the dentist .the boys are now drinking protien enhancement to try to build up the muscles.we found out markus' wrist was more then likely broken at some stage of his life and now we got to get it taken care of so it stops hurting him.they are both doing great.

he did it

Today Markus overcame a big challenge he drank out of a straw. with no help he drank a juice box. it was great to see he finally did it. now to get him chewing. his therapist is doing a great job with him.

a day of melt downs and break throughs......

today was the first day in 2 months that aleks had a melt down. he woke up this morning and right off the bat he started crying over everything. by the end of the day he had had a melt down while we was visiting family...the after that he was great again. playing and laughing and back to his old self. then after that Markus just started to cry .not just whine but real tears . this was the first time since we been home he has cried. although sad at the time i was overjoyed he let me cuddle him and rock him to console him. plus here i sa few more new pics. from our visit with the british side of the family.

today makes it 6months.........

since our boys became officially our sons. who would of thought time would fly so fast after the way it dragged along while we was waiting on a courtdate..

new family to meet.

well my husbands family is coming over from england on saturday. we really hope they enjoy meeting the kids.

markus before and now

here is a pic of markus from our preview trip a year ago. here he is today . after looking at these pics together i do believe he is putting on a little weight.he is doing really well. although the biggest thing i notice is that over there he wore a size 6 diaper and here it only takes a 1-2 .

well it has been a while since i updated on the boys. they are both doing great in Speech , aleks is actually speaking more and more english. markus is saying somethings, and they are working on getting him to chew. aleks is a water baby, he loves the pool. he is swimming with his lifejacket on to help.markus loves to float around on his back. we are all trying to support arly in her choices for life.
