Take into account that the US Passport agency requires a birth certificate filed within one year of birth. You may be causing unnecessary headaches for the intended adoptee, and they may be denied a passport and/or driving licence (it's happened to too many already!) - the rules differ state to state.
Adopting the child won't change who their biological parent *actually* is. They got half of their genetics from their biological parent, and no piece of paper in the multiverse is strong enough to change that fact, so why bother paying to be able to lie and say that your current partner created the kid, when they didn't?
Sounds to me like your partner already fills the parental role, so I don't understand why you feel you need to create the legalised lie about the biological side - especially when there are usually several other forms of official guardianship/parental responsibility available?
Also, you may want to make sure you're not in a 'sealed record' state first:
Adoption Laws & Sealed Records @

Adoption Records by State @
** http://www.abcadoptions.com/adoptionrecords.htm
Sealed records prevent even those who've had step-parents adopt them from accessing their own history.
Finally, are you ABSOLUTELY SURE that you want to do this, because it means if you split up, HE can get custody of YOUR child and YOU would have to pay maintenance ... are you SURE you wanna risk the chance of losing YOUR child to someone they're not even related to? I know that as a mom, I'd certainly NEVER'VE let someone adopt *my* kid!
