Re: parental rights
Since your husband is willing to adopt your children and your ex- husband is willing to terminate his parental rights, you should be able to proceed quite quickly.
If the ex-husband will consent to the adoption, then you can fill out the requisite forms for step-parent adoption and your ex-husband can attach a declaration stating his agreement to the adoption.
Good Luck!

It shouldn't take long. As long as there is cooperation, it is mostly form driven.
