From the Adoption Agency:
The twins are doing great. The pics and video will go out shortly. Heidy has concerns about their legs as they are thin and the girls are both
trying to walk (with assistance) but the doctor says that they are fine and the
thinness is typical of preemies and multiples. The doctor is keeping them both
on formula instead of switching to milk as they normally would at 12 months to
assist in building their muscles. Both are very active and on target developmentally for Guatemalan children. Which is to say compared to a 12 month old in the States they are behind, but as far as all the other 12 month olds I saw they were on target with the other children. Still, it might be something you may want to mention to your pediatrician to see if he has suggestions on building muscle mass in their legs.
Today and Friday were holidays for PGN so it has been very quiet. No (birthmother interview) appointment set up yet. The attorney is hoping
to hear this week. They have already been in touch with the birthmother and will
be able to get her into the city fairly easily when the appointment is
scheduled.
PGN has completed many other birthmother interviews, but they "will not release any files for 30 days". We are not really sure when that 30 day marker began. First birthmother interviews began the week of May 5. So we hope they will release files the beginning of June and not find more stall tactics. We are hoping that our birthmother interview will take place before then and that we will be released very soon. We are getting very discouraged at this point--much time has been lost with the twins and their homecoming becomes more and more difficult for them as so much time passes and they get older.
