This is SO FRIGGIN SWEET!!! It became legal in Canada recently, too. That is so awesome!!

I think that gay people should be allowed to get married, and that they should be allowed to adopt. Like it has been mentioned before, kids of mixed races, religion, you name it have been bullied through the ages. Hell, red-haired women were burnt alive!! Things change.
Here in Iceland, gay people can be in a confirmed cohabitation. That means they get pretty much the same rights as straight married couples. But they can't adopt someone elses child.
But lets say that there's this gay couple. Two girl. One of them gets pregnant in a natural way, then her girlfriend (if they are in a confirmed cohabitation) can adopt the baby as her own. Same goes with men, if the father has full custody.
I think that they SHOULD be allowed to adopt other babies, it makes no difference. Especially if the kid is young when adopted.
