I'm glad to see that everything went well. Sounds like he feels comfortable in coming to your home and being around you and the children. This is a huge step in the right direction. How close to the end of replay is he? He's close, but as long as the ow is in the picture, it's still replay and he could withdraw back into his shell if he feels he's moved too quickly or senses expectations from you.
As long as you treat him as a friend and keep your expectations at zero, you should be fine. He needs to feel "safe" in your home environment and it sounds like he does at this time. Always thank him for anything that he does. If he brings up a conversation about something that you both are interested in, ask questions or show interest in what he has to say....this is very important.
From your posting, it sounds like you did a great job w/his visit! Keep up the good work.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
