My husband adopted my daughter in 2001. We contacted our attorney who drew up all the papers for us. Really he handled it all. All we had to do was show up.
I didn't have any contact at all with the birth father so we had to take out ads in newspapers and the sheriff had to attempt to deliver the papers several times before we found him. This held up the process slightly but total time I think was 6 months or so.
I'm very happy for you and your wife that you are willing to take this step. Faith is a very lucky little girl! Good luck!
