It's Official

It has been a long and crazy day, but we just wanted to let everyone know it's official; our application to adopt our son has been granted!!!  We will update more later when we have some time, but for now please meet our new son, Ryland Dias Stone.

Awesome. How exciting!! And how cute is he? I always get so excited to finally see pics when you've heard so much about him. He's even cuter than I pictured him in my mind - if that's even possible. :)
Cheers,
Tanya

Congratulation to you three! What a big luck to you.

I found your blog while looking for adoptions from this year in KZ, because we have no luck yet.

In Taraz there are difficulties with international adoptions. There are eight families and seven have been already denied at court. We will appeal hopefully this month.
