Until tonight, I had been unable to upload pictures to our blog. Google had a problem. Anyway, I had several posts waiting to publish, so lots was published and some previous posts were added pictures.
Our son is doing better. The twins still don't like him and see him as a competitor for mom. Sweet Laura likes to kick and hit him. Emma avoids him and has taken to testing her limits with us. Yet, at times in the last several days, the three of them have been chasing each other around the house and laughing. This morning, Hudson spilled milk from his cereal on himself. Laura went into the bathroom and brought a bath towel for him. He, in turn has tried to give the twins Cheerios which they sometimes take.
Hudson has some behaviors that we are working on. He bites sometimes (I understood why he bites, but we attempt to make him understand that was wrong) and when he is told no, he usually will whine and cry. He will laugh a lot, although, he may make you work for it. His separation anxiety from Cheryl is becoming less pronounced. He is becoming more comfortable with me, setting on my lap to read and taking food from my hand to his mouth. Unfortunately, he likes to wake up in the middle of the night with night terrors. Some of his behaviors are because of his age, and some due to orphanage life.
He eats well. He likes watermelon, most kinds of soup, cereal, and sometimes mac and cheese.
Since we have come home, Hudson has had an appointment with an radiologist (he broke his arm in China and we wanted to make sure we could take off the brace), his pediatrician (he got a blood draw there, he was pretty good about that), and some physical therapy for his arm. In the next several weeks, he has urology and ophthalmology appointments.
