monday was a big day for our family. we drove to columbia, through the freezing rain and ice, to finalize liam's adoption. i got extremely car sick, and it rained the first 2 hrs of the drive. not a GREAT time, but we made it. got to see bill's cousin tyler. we changed clothes there (into our "nice" outfits, which is funny because bill had to borrow pants from tyler when we were there for TPR.) next we stopped by the NICU to see one of liam's former nurses. she was happy to see him and how well he is doing.
court was fine. we both raised our right hands and sat on the witness stand. liam was more impressed with banging on the table. we took pictures with the 3 of us; steve, our lawyer; the judge and the guardian ad lidem (sp?) i tried to get them uploaded today, but i have the wrong cable. all my friends here at work say they are very nice pictures though. :)
we got the decree saying that we are his legal parents and that his name has been legally changed (only his last name changed.) apparently, it will be several months while the state gov't workers laboriously type up the new birth certificate. oh well.
