Almost Official!

Two weeks ago we found out that LDS Family Servivces has changed it's adoption policies on finalization. Family Services now follows each states guidlines. What this means is before all adoptive couples no matter what state had to wait six months for finalization. But now we just have to follow Idahos adoption laws. The state of Idaho as long as there were no health issues at birth with the baby finalization is as soon as your lawyer gets you into court! We met with our lawyer Wednesday, we have a court date, filled out all the paper work and have been preped for court. Court is a little more involved then I had origianlly realized but we are still very excited and cannot wait to be official! Once we are offical our lawyer said we could have our baby sealed as soon as that afternoon if we wanted!
