Yay! Ours is in a little over 2 weeks! It is funny because the first time, I could have cared less about finalizing. We had a bumpier ride, yet it seemed so uneventful. This time, I am counting down. This adoption has been easy breezy. We have not had one single problem or issue come up and everything has moved QUICK. So, I keep thinking the problem is coming. I just want to get it finalized so I can quit worrying! (Knocking on wood over here...)

Well, if you can believe this, my little girl is almost 2 1/2 and we just found out we are getting a court date soon! We had a breezy process and nothing has gone wrong...except a few things out of our control! This has been a long time coming and I just feel so great that the end is finally in sight! Congrats-I know how you feel!

I never had a baby shower so now I am thinking about having a finalization party instead.

I don't get why you didn't have a shower after the 30 days. I would be so ticked if it was my family. You throw yourself a big old bash, and everyone better bring lots of presents for adorable H
