Update

We had a pretty busy week. I feel like we are living at the doctor's office though. Monday he got his flu vaccine and then I had the doctor look at his hands again. She thought they looked pretty good....I think they look pretty sore. On Wednesday we took him to the International Adoption Clinic at the U of M. I loved that place! We were there for about 2 1/2 hours and they spent so much time talking with us about Tesfahun's health, attachment, adjustment, and development. He seems to be a pretty healthy boy! I was very happy to hear that he appears to be attaching well to us. I asked the doctor when other people could start holding him and she said 4-6 months...sorry to all of our friends and relatives. His back and legs are a little weak but we have seen a huge improvement within the last 2 weeks. I work with him during the day and then my 11 year old daughter has been working with him everyday after school. I was also pretty impressed with how closely our adoption agency works with the International Adoption Clinic at the U of M. Our doctor told us that 2 doctors and an occupational therapist will be going to Ethiopia sometime this winter to work with the doctors and nannys at the care center. I can not begin to say enough good things about our adoption agency.

Tomorrow we head back to the doctor to get the stitches removed from TJ's hands. I don't think I am ready for that!!

I will post more pictures this weekend.
