Re-Adoption...Check!

Today was our re-adoption of Maya. Andrea Lear Amadoro became Maya Grace Lear officially today! Below is the best photo I have with the judge.


All four of us had to be ready and out the door by about 8:35am today. It was not pretty. But we did get there.
As George and I had our hands up swearing to tell the truth, Bryan shouted out..."I HAVE TO GO POTTY..."...over and over again. The hearing is 5 minutes if that and I know he can hold it but what a scene. Tears were coming to my eyes thinking he was about to have an accident in the judges chambers. Of course, he did not have an accident and did not even have to go for another 1/2 hour but it sure did gain him a little attention.
The hearing went very well besides that.

Our angel before we entered the court
She would not sit still, sorry!
Until we went to Longhorn Steak House...
and pulled out a toy!
After lunch we got ice cream...so please note the dress change for pictures outside our home

This was my first attempt at my children standing together


Peek-a-boo


Maya Grace...do you see the camera?


There it is, my best work today...even tho there is sweat dripping down her face








It was about 95 degrees today

I think it is time to go inside


It is what it is

It is way too hot!
