We got him!

June 23rd...a day we will remember in this household for a long time.  On a warm, Texas Thursday afternoon, our family of 4 and 3 of our grandparents walked from the lawyer's office to the courthouse in the center of town.  

There we met with the judge and there he declared SP (my new blog nickname for the baby...my sweet potato!) OURS...officially!!  It was quick, over in a matter of minutes, but the results will thankfully be a lifetime :-)  

Before he signed the papers he asked J what he thought of the sleeping little bundle next to him, J said "Yea, he's a good baby brother, I like him".  Judge declared then and there we were his forever family.


We had a great lunch with Nana, Pop and Grandma (Grandad was out of town but was really hoping to be there!).  It couldn't have been a better day.  


Introducing....The T family!!  All four of us :-)

Congratulations on your new addition to the family. JR is truly precious and is as blessed to be a part of your family as you are blessed by having him.
