Today we finalized our adoption for Mr Ji'Robert Tyler with the same judge that we finalized Addy's adoption with!
After court, our family and friends went to Perkins to celebrate.
The special boy...
We did hand and foot prints.
And our tradition of a backwards photo!
Annie and Amanda helped us toast to our little man!
Finalizing our adoption is amazing, wonderful, relieving, and sad all at the same time. For us, its a day of hope of moving forward as a family of four. For Ji'Roberts birthfamily its a day of finality. We are lucky to have a very open relationship with his birthfamily and will see them again soon. He legally now has our last name and is ours in every sense of the word as if we had given birth to him but we intend to honor his birthfamily and keep them in his life and in ours. We could not be more grateful to have been chosen to parent this amazing little boy. We love him with all of our heart.

Congrats! It is such an amazing feeling to finalize. We could celebrate with cake...and just make sure Brynn isn't sitting next to Addy! :)
Congratz on finalizing. How neat that you had the same judge.
