3 Months Old! [Pic Heavy]

Yesterday Talon turned 3 months old! As I've said before, where has the time gone?! Yesterday evening I was holding him and looking at him, just thinking wow it's been three months. I glanced at the clock and it was roughly the same time I had first held him, 7 PM, just three months prior. As I was thinking back to that day, and just grateful for him, the tears fell from my eyes. He smiled. My heart melted a million times over. He is truly a blessing in our life. I am amazed that it's been three months. Though I've really enjoyed the three months we've had together, I can't wait to share the next 9 months until he turns one. I want time to slow down though. It goes so fast. He grows so fast. It amazes me how he has touched my life. What a perfect little boy he is too. Ah, I'm truly in love with him. Each day that love grows more and more, yet I wonder how that is possible. I love him with every beat of my heart, fully and completely, yet it does grow.

Here are the three month pictures I took of him... he has such the personality!

These were cute because I was playing with the mode on the camera to capture the lights on the tree...the mode shoots a few flashes and it totally caught him off gaurd and he did the deer in headlights look. I had to share these! They are so cute! LOL







I just love him to death!!
And what is Christmas without and adorable Santa Baby?! These were taken a few nights ago when he was in an adorable mood (he usually is btw!) and I was changing him getting him ready for bed. Decided to put the Santa hat on him and he was definitely enjoying the attention! I loved the pictures! I only wish I had captured them earlier so I could have done one of them for a Christmas card! Maybe next year though! LOL Here's the cutest lil Santa baby alive!

Talon's Yummy Cereal!

Ok, so I have two blog posts to post tonight. Only because I did try to post this one a few nights ago but it didn't save. Then I had net issues... but it is a cute and important post to share, so I must add it to my blog!

Talon had his first cereal! Monday, December 8th 2008. He was a trooper and did AMAZING. He absolutely loved it and I am so proud of him! He is growing up fast, and it makes me sad but it also makes me happy that he is doing so very well!

Here are the photos of him and his yummy cereal!

Amazing Day!! [12/3/08]

Today was a very exciting and happy day for us. We had our court appearance for the interloculatory decree of adoption! I know, most people don't know what that means because I didn't at first either. lol But, it is our order for the adoption. Wyoming has a 6 months statue before the adoption can be completely finalized, and this is the step before that. The judge also signed the final decree as well, however that can't be consented and submitted until the statue period is up, which will be in March. And that will be done with just a simple phone call! We've known all along that he is ours and we have no worries, however it's nice that the steps are being taken. Here soon we'll have (3 months roughly) a birth certificate with his name on it stating that my husband and I are his parents. How exciting that'll be!

Our certified copy of todays decree has a statement at the end that just completely made me cry when it was read. It states "It is, therefore ordered, adjudged and decreed that the petitioners, Kimberly Louise MYLASTNAME and Kenneth Robert HISLASTNAME Jr, should be and they hereby are awarded teh care, custody and control of said minor child" It was just completely emotional for me and holding Talon in my arms at the moment when it was read, I just felt so complete.

A day we have waited for to come for many years, came. And though he was always ours in our heart even before he was born, it was confirmed today that he is ours in the eyes of the law. Which, though its not 100% final, it is upholding.

I am sad that I didn't get any photos of today. When I went to take the camera out I was notified that no digital devices were allowed in the court room, including cameras. If we decide to have another appearance (we don't have to appear) then our attorney can request the slot time for "media time" which is where basically we pay the judge to spend 15 minutes for pictures. I have NO idea why it's done like that here, but that's the way it goes. LOL It sucks, I was so sad...but, we did take a few pictures today in general and I can still make the scrapbook memory. LOL

Now I am thinking of having a celebration party. We never had a baby shower for him or even a Sip N See like I wanted to do. So, maybe this would be good. People can come and celebrate our happiness. It might be fun to do!
