Two Months Old

Isabella is two months old today! She is such a sweet and beautiful baby. Every morning when I go to get her out of her crib I am greeted with big smile. And every morning I thank God for such a precious gift.

Yesterday was a momentous day in our journey. Isabella's birth parents had court. During this court session both birth parents relinquished their parental rights. This is the time that adoptive parents can finally breath! We are no longer in the 'legal risk' period. Which means the birth parents can not change their minds about their adoption plan. We are so very close to finalizing the adoption! Right now we are considered Isabella's legal guardians. We will be supervised over the next several months by our social worker, who will need to report back to the courts. Then sometime in October we will go to court with the intention to finalize the adoption. And oh what a happy day that will be!
