Here is how our hearing went....
We were waiting in an area just outside the courtroom. When it was our turn, we told the boys that we HAD to be quiet and just listen and that Mommy and Daddy would talk to the judge, but they should be quiet unless the judge spoke to them directly because it was important to show respect. So, we walked into the courtroom, both boys perfectly quiet in a completely quiet room. Suddenly, Jonathan yells "BOO". Everybody died laughing.
After the hearing, we were allowed to take pictures with the judge. The boys love to have their pictures taken so as soon as they saw the photographer, they started smiling and saying "CHEESE" together, also very loudly for such a big, quiet room. They had the whole place rolling. Very typical behavior for our sons. 
It was perfect. Here is our first "official" family photograph and a picture of the boys with the National Adoption Day sign taken immediately after the hearing. I'll add the one with the judge, but I have to wait for CPS to send it to me because they hired the photographer.
