Heart Finally Finally Final!

7720_1252958011944_1469356102_30698093_2619355_n.jpgI got our daughter's adoption papers in the mail today. I am so glad we got them before her birthday in two weeks! We had been waiting for over two months for a hearing to be scheduled and then we decided to just have the adoption finalized by mail because it was faster. Less than a week later, we got the papers in the mail!

So our baby Shiloh is offically offical!

Thanks everyone! I promised her that we'd have her birth certificate by her birthday a long time ago so I hope it happens! She came to us through the Safe Delivery law in our state and it just saddened me that we had to wait so long! But it's done and all legal!!!
