She's Ours!

Holding on to Daddy's leg before we went into the judge's chamber...
Nana and Courtney came along even with such short notice!
This little girl was being adopted on the same day and had on almost the same dress!
The official Harmon family
Nana got Leah a special gold bangle...

We got an early Christmas present and it was the best one of them all! On December 22nd we got a call from probate court that we could finalize Leah's adoption the next morning! We were beyond thrilled! Words can not describe what this meant to us. It is a great feeling to know every last bit of paperwork for her adoption is complete and that she is officially Leah Aasawari Harmon. The decree will give her a new birth certificate which means she can get a social security number, passport, etc. It also means we have a dependent on our 2009 income taxes! Here are some pictures of that special day.
