About Us
We are Anna and Kyle. Our story began when we were 18 working at the same grocery store. After a little persuasion, Kyle got Anna to go on a date, and the rest is history. We were married in 2015 and settled near where we both grew up. Kyle works for a nearby school district, and Anna works at a local hospital. In his free time, Kyle enjoys woodworking, playing video games, and being outside with our dog and four chickens. Anna enjoys hiking, cooking, photography, and spending time with our family and friends. We are passionate about travel, with an eagerness to learn about other cultures, especially their food! Together we make a great team and can lean on each other when needed.
Our Home & Pets
We live close to where we both grew up in Illinois. Our house is in a quiet neighborhood tucked back by walking trails and nature. We have one dog, Nala, and four chickens named Helen, Gerdy, Minnie, and Penny the Henny. We always have fresh eggs to eat and bake with. We have a large fenced back yard for playing in and a perfect tree for a swing. Nala loves to explore our backyard and bask in the light on sunny days.
Our Extended Family
Anna comes from a very large, blended family and is the youngest of three sisters, a stepsister, and two stepbrothers. Kyle’s biological family is small with just him and his mom, but that does not mean he is lacking in family. He has the same best friends he had in grade school; we call them “framily.” We see family on a weekly basis. There is always a birthday party, holiday, or random cookout to partake in. We both grew up with similar values in that family is everything.
We have a few traditions, but our favorite traditions are the ones we have for Thanksgiving and Christmas. This time of year actually starts pretty early in November with Anna decorating for Christmas. The tree goes up the first week of November to be enjoyed as long as possible. The many social gatherings we attend begin with “Friendsgiving,” and then, on Thanksgiving Day, we can be found filling our bellies at a family dinner. Christmas is our favorite holiday. We spend Christmas Eve with Anna’s family and Christmas Day with Kyle’s mom enjoying the day and time we spend together.
What Led Us To Adoption
We always knew we wanted to be parents. Very early on in our relationship, we talked about baby names and about our future. After struggling with infertility and miscarriages for a little over five years, we came to realize biological children were not in our cards. We then made the decision that our family would grow through adoption. Though our journey has been long, we feel we are making the right decision for us and our family. We are so excited to start this new adventure and to see where the road takes us.

Choose a Family for
Your Baby With Confidence
As you browse our list of hopeful adoptive parents, you can feel confident in knowing that all of the adoptive families working with Angel Adoption are prepared to offer your baby a safe, stable, and loving environment along with a wealth of opportunities for a happy and fulfilling life.
Each adoptive parent has been thoroughly evaluated through a home study course conducted by a licensed agency. A completed home study means the family is emotionally, physically, and financially ready to adopt a baby.
The home study process includes assessments of each parent’s character, marital stability, financial situation, lifestyle, and medical history. The agency also runs background checks to verify there is no record of criminal activity or child abuse. In addition, a social worker will inspect the family’s home to ensure it is a safe environment for a child.
Furthermore, Angel Adoption requires each family to be educated on adopting and parenting. After a baby has been placed with the adoptive family, a social worker will continue to monitor and supervise the family. We go to great lengths to make sure all the families you have to choose from are going to be excellent parents for your baby!
