I'm so glad you were able to speak with an attorney and get the ball rolling this fast!!!!
Have a safe trip to IL.
As for bonding with the little girl, just love her. I don't have experience with older adoptions, but I KNOW love goes a very long way!
I also think it's a great bringing your mom, her sitter, home with you for awhile. I believe that is going to make her feel "safe".
Sounds like you all are on the road to being parents again!
ETA: When we took in our now ason, we thought it was temporary. The kids adjusted amazingly well and where calling him brother long before it was official.
