It's OFFICIAL!!!

She's ours! The weekend went really well. Court went well...even though I couldn't remember my own name and Brooklyn's birthday...you'll have to ask me about it later. :) My favorite part was the temple. There was such a spirit there. The sealer told my folks after the sealing that this was a really special sealing and that he could feel it. Thanks to all who came. The blessing went well. Tom was so nervous! He did such a good job and I know what he said was what needed to be said. Good job Tom! Brooklyn was an angel for the whole weekend. I tried to post pics of her dress, but our Internet is not letting me. Just putting these pics on has taken me over 2 1/2 hours. SO...cherish them. :) I'll try later. I'm going to get some pics done professionally in her dress tomorrow. So, I'll be sending those out as soon as I get them. We feel so blessed to have her in our home and we know that she was meant to be in our family.

On a different note...I go into the OB again tomorrow. Last week I was dialated to a 1 and not effaced. The baby has been pointing down for 3 weeks now. That is a good sign. I go in every week until the arrival! Yeah! The babies heartrate was 136. I'll keep you posted on what happens tomorrow. :)

Right after the sealing. There were more people there, but it was cold! SO, we got who we could round up.

Right after the adoption became legal. The judge was really nice and let us take pictures with him.


Getting ready for court.

I am so sad I couldn't make it. I was looking forward to coming but then I got way sick. I couldn't even get out of bed. My parents took the kids so that I could rest but I am still trying to get over this dang thing. I am so glad it went so well. I tried calling but don't have your phone number anymore. I am so excited for you guys. You guys are an amazing family!

Awwwww! What a happy day for you! Congrats! Glad to hear everything went well, I can only imagine how nerve-wracking it would be to wait for so long to finalize everything. Good luck with the OB tomorrow and the pictures. Love you guys!
