Final!

It's late and we are all tuckered out but before we call it a night I wanted to let everyone know that as of today Anya is our legal daughter!!

It's been a hectic few days but we made it to Texas for our finalization and appeared before the court and finalized the adoption. We were able to do the finalization on the courts "Adoption Day" where they decorate the court room for the kids. There were stuffed animals and books all along the judge and witness ledges. And to top that each kid got to choose a stuffed animal and book to keep to mark the occasion.

Katy's parents came with us to help out and be witnesses and Anya's transitional mom was able to join us to mark this very special day.

Image posting is being weird tonight so use the Adoption Finalization link under the Links section to the right to see a few images from the day. More will be uploaded when available.

Pulling Up!

Today we were treated by a picture from daycare that shows little Anya pulling up and standing! She continues to amaze us with how quickly she progresses and learns new things. On one hand its really cool to see her new feats but on the other hand our little girl is growing up so fast.


I continue to tell her to slow down but she wont have anything of it.
