She is Officially Ours

8 Months ago we travelled to Korea to bring Naomi home. With a South Korean adoption we have to wait 6 months and have 3 reports sent back to Korea on how well Naomi is doing before we can legally adopt her. Today we went to Family Court down town Louisville and had our court proceeding to formally adopt her. The whole process took about 20 minutes. Our attorney, Teresa Kinberger, testified that everything was in order and all the papers were filed correctly and that we would be good parents. Naomi's Attorney also testified that he has met us (even if only for 10 minutes) and that Josiah and Naomi seem like happy well adjusted children and recommended that the court grant the adoption. After all the formalities both kids got to pick out a stuffed animal and then we got our picture taken with the judge and the attorneys. Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Melody were there to celebrate with us. Thanks Grandma for the very cute elephant for Naomi.

Food and Fun

This has been a fun, but busy week. On Thursday night I had several of my friends over for a Pampered Chef cooking show. Nancy did a great job of demonstrating all the great products that they have and she cooked us some yummy food. We had lemony Moroccan Chicken Pitas and lemon cups with some homemade lemonade. As you can see we were going on a lemon theme. The evening was a blast and several of the ladies bought items. I am now trying to figure out what to get with the free credit I earned for having a show. If anyone wants to order anything, we are keeping the orders open until Thursday this week. Contact me for orders this week at gregandteresa(at)insightbb(dot)com
Saturday we lay around the house for several hours before getting going. Greg and the kids played outside in the leaves while I went to have my hair cut and highlighted. I went to a new place so I was a little nervous, but Stephanie at LeBliss did a great job. Saturday night Grandma came over to babysit and Greg and I went to our Sunday School class Thanksgiving social. We had so much yummy food. Thanks Traci and Don for hosting such a fun evening and thanks Rob for the entertainment.
