The Martin's

It's official!

As of yesterday Jaxson is officially a Martin! We went to court yesterday to finalize the adoption, Nick and I had been eagerly anticipating the day. Nick has been Jaxson's dad since before we were married, he has always loved him like he was his own and Jax has always called him Daddy, but now it's official and we couldn't be more excited! It's a huge weight lifted off my shoulders to know that Jaxson is legally Nick's son. Nick had a grin from ear to ear all day yesterday. We wanted to suprise Nick's parents with the adoption, so we had a cookie bouquet sent to them yesterday telling them Congratulation's Jaxson was now offically a Martin! Not only has Nick always loved Jax as his own, but his parents have too. They have spoiled him and treated him like part of the family since Nick and I were dating and I am so grateful to them for that! Jax absolutely adores his Papa George and Grandma Bonnie, he looks forward to each and every time they come to visit. He also thinks the world of his Daddy and they love to go and do "guy" things together. Obviously Jaxson doesn't know what happened yesterday, he is too little to understand it. But I hope that when the time comes for us to tell him he will understand that we all love him more than anything in this world and that he has the best Daddy in the world too!
