Chris & Kelsey
Are Hoping to Adopt a Baby
Our Video
dear expectant mother
We are beyond grateful to even be considered through this process. Thank you for taking the time to read and allow us the opportunity to share a bit of ourselves with you. We cannot fathom the level of emotions you are experiencing, and considering this decision for your child shows incredible courage and strength. The choice you are contemplating is an act of love, and we know it’s not easy. We respect you for what it has taken for you to reach this decision, and no matter what decision you make, it will be the right one.
We believe it takes a village to get through the journey of life, and should you choose us, we promise to fill that journey with so much learning, life, and laughter. We’ve both had successful careers that will allow us to provide a safe, stable, and healthy home. We have strong faith and believe in providing support for a child to grow to be their authentic self, pursue their passions, and become the best version of themselves they can be. If chosen, we will expose your baby to experiences, strategies to navigate challenges, diversity, foods, and a life filled with unconditional love and support.
About Us
Our Home & Neighborhood
Our Family & Friends
Family is not only what you are given; it’s what you make it, and we believe our relationship with our friends fall into the family tree. Although our immediate friends and family are not in our area, we are in constant contact. Everyone makes regular trips to visit us, and we all make a significant effort to coordinate get-togethers when we go back to IL.
Chris’s sister and her husband and kids live outside a college town. The family enjoys getting together with their many cousins and going to college sports games, and our niece loves to dance. Time spent with the family also occurs in Florida, where Chris’s parents reside part of the year. Lots of time is spent on the beach, in the pool, at playgrounds, and eating fresh food. Kelsey’s parents still reside in the family home built by her grandfather. All her cousins live in the area as well as her sister and her wife and two kids under the age of three.
When with our extended family, we enjoy cooking, eating, football games, cornhole, darts, and laughing. We are so blessed to have friends with a beautiful spring-fed pond where we enjoy swimming, fish fries, and fun.
