Vahnya is a rock star!

So today we spent all afternoon from 12:00 to 5:00 at OHSU At the down syndrome clinic where they have  a bunch of different specialists and Doctors all there in one afternoon to check out everything from hearing to  motor skills. You go from one Doctor to the next.  He saw  six different Doctors. It was amazing  they were all so in awe over Vahnya. one after another of the Doctors and specialist that saw him said how smart he was, how well he was doing, how cute he was. They all just could not believe that he has only been home since March.
 He has grown too he is now 38 inches and 31 lbs he is almost off the down syndrome charts for his height and he is just under average on the regular  charts.
 His hearing is excellent and they did this thing where they would have a bucket of toy birds and when he would hear the sound he was to put a bird into the other bucket. He caught on the first time she showed him to do this. The lady was shocked.
 He said thank you to the Dr when she gave him some crackers and she was shocked.
 He built with blocks, strung beads, put little stones into a little bottle, he swung from a rope swing, climbed up a rock wall, made baskets in the basketball hoop,kicked a ball,threw a ball, rolled a ball,went down the slide all by himself, pretended to make us lunch and serve us.and so much more!He was a rock star and rocked that place!
 It was so neat to get to let other people see the joy that is Vahnya! he came out of there with a clean bill of health only thing he has to do is get some stronger supporting shoes to keep his toes from working over time. He is one wonderful boy! And we are so lucky he is ours!
