This would be considered an "identified adoption" and you wouldn't really be 'doing it yourself' - more than you just wouldn't be paying an agency to do a bunch of the stuff you paid them for the first time - like networking etc.
You can get all of the services (legal) you need by just going thru an attorney who specializes in adoption law and the cost would be greatly reduced.
Additionally, most adoption attorneys have resources they can offer in relation to counseling etc.
Not using an agency means you won't get the 'hand holding' and you won't pay for services that you won't be using (networking, etc).
Many adoptions are done this way and many of those involve different states.
It's all about your comfort level.
