On June 1, we readopted the bwins in Oklahoma. This was a formality that will help in the future when we need birth certificates, etc. The process was extremely painless and lasted all of a minute or less. We made application about 6 months before, paid a small fee, and brought post placements with us. D's attorney skills came in quite handy for this. He was our legal representative. He even brought the statutes about readoption in Oklahoma for the judge to read since this is not a common everyday practice. Basically, D signed, I signed, the judge signed and it was over. I asked for a picture since we were not allowed photos in or around the courtroom or even courthouse in Russia. We did not even see our new sons on the day of our adoption. Therefore, the Oklahoma judge obliged, put on his official black robe, and posed for an adoption picture. Thanks Judge!
We made it a family affair!  This a pic of the kiddos all waiting to go into the judge's office. What a great crew!  |
Congratulations! What a nice photo-op for the family. I love to see the bwins holding on to their sisters hands. Especially with H... that just melts my heart a bit.
