Remember this and this?
Well, today was a big day! A great day! We kept the girls home from school so they could witness the adoption finalization of their cousin Lilli!
Waiting to go into the judge's chambers. Of course, no pictures during the seven minute hearing.
My SIL and BIL and niece. They offically changed her name today. It was so strange hearing the judge and lawyer refer to her as Savannah, the name the birth mother gave her. She has always been Lilliana to us!
That is Lulu...cheering outside the court house! Then back to Lilli's house for a little celebration!
