On Monday, December 17, we took another trip to Family Court and made official in the eyes of New York State our adoption of Christopher. Against all odds, Christopher sat still long enough for Judge O'Connor to sign the paperwork as we passed another milestone in our family expansion project. Thankfully, we were able to get into the judge's schedule before she hung up her robe for good. Special thanks to George for coming along to share in the event and take some pictures (and occasionally wrestle a squirming Christoper to the ground).
