Hey there - I'm glad to hear things are going "smoothly". I am surprised that the IA psych didn't mention the potty training. I would think (of course mine were older) that it would be better to not worry so much about it right now. Let them get settled and then work on that? Just a thought.
The stroller thing seems weird to me - is it because you are out of their line of sight? Could you switch them to a wagon so that you are always in front of them and they can see you? I just don't understand how a walk can be bad otherwise.
I'm on a soapbox right now since we are just getting into the depths of DDs attachment disorder - yes, three years home. I would urge you to practice attachment parenting as much as possible (or even more so) and be sure your DH does it as well...your babes are so much younger than mine...but the triangulation of DH and I for my DD is full blown even now. It can be tiring and hard to handle.
I would not worry about changing his name. I'm guessing he did not express great sadness over the loss. Also, did the psych point out to him that he had a new name and see if he knew that?
