Our Pre Birth Order Is Done!

March 4, 2010

Pre Birth Order (PBO) = The court filings that say I am not this baby’s mommy.
YAY!
I am very excited today because I got my copies of our PBO. It’s basically just the courts recognition that I am in fact not this baby’s mommy and therefore not responsible for it when it’s born.
