We also have 2 bio-sons and adopted a sib group. Our daughter we got at 2 days old and her brother at 3 days old. We are in KC area, but statewide the process is basically the same. Contact your local Children's Division office and they will send you an info packet. If you are still interested, call and they will send someone out to get the process started.
Good luck! It is one of the most rewarding things we've ever done

And absolutly the the most frustrating... My wife and I finshed our classes in November and we still have not be approved. Each time I talk with the DFS office (or whatever they are called this week) all I get is we are waiting for final approval. First it was fingerprints and now it is approvals. Man, there must not be any kids out there that needs a home... (sarcasm)
Hang in there...you should be getting close. We finished classes in July 3 years ago and got licensed in September. Things seem to be held up longer now....something about the conceal and carry law, that a bunch of cowboys needed fingerprints processed...I guess it's more important to have guns on the street than kids in safe homes :rolleyes: .
All that aside.....it's well worth the wait!!
