Sigh of Relief!
We were holding our breath until the adoption was finally official and signed by the judge! It finally happened on May 24th! What an amazing day!! We worked with our judge throughout the whole foster care process and finally at the adoption hearing he gave us a smile and a hug! What a sweet man and what a tough job! Our family and Grandma Ann went to the adoption hearing and then celebrated at Charlie's for a bit of ice cream! We were also able to take our family to the temple to be sealed together on May 28th. It was the most beautiful, sunny day and it was so fun to have my entire family with us. We were able to get my best friend from high schools' Dad to do the sealing which meant a lot! We have so many people who we hold dear to our hearts for bringing J.R. into our lives and helping us through the process. Melissa, DCFS, teachers, counselors, our attorney, our family, J.R.'s relatives, etc. THANK YOU SO MUCH! We love you and couldn't be happier!

That is so cool! He looks like he belongs to your family. You guys all look great!
A sigh of relief is right. So glad it's over with and he is in our family forever. We love that messy, sweet and obedient child!
Yay for J.R. and for all of us! We sure love your trio of squishers. I was just thinking about the first time we met him in April last year. He really does just fit right into the family.
