Officially inducted into motherhood

The whole process took much longer than I thought it would, so by the time we FINALLY got a court date we were all more than a little excited!!!
I made this "Choo-Choo Train" Count down so the kids could take a car down every day and they were really excited to go to COURT!!

On the 18th we wanted to make it as exciting as possible so we had Balloons in the living room when they woke up and Malachi went and got Donuts for breakfast.... When we got to the National adoption day celebration the whole room was decorated and we had a special table with our their names on it! There was cake and presents- I think Andrew and Mallory really understood how special this day was!


We went into the Court room and the actual ceremony was only about 3 minutes long- Whaoo!!! So this is our picture with the Judge- and the Grandparents! We are so lucky that we have BOTH sets of Grandparents SO close and they are so supportive...Thanks for coming guys!

Then we went outside to take pictures in the fall leaves...we didn't really get any good pictures, but oh well! Everything is Official and we could not be happier!
