Erin & Dave
Are Hoping to Adopt a Baby
Our Video
dear expectant mother
We cannot imagine what it is like to be in your shoes as you face this tough decision, but we are so appreciative that you would even consider us. Your courage in looking at adoption is amazing! While being an incredibly difficult decision, it is a true act of selflessness.
If chosen, we would provide a loving and supportive home with faith, laughter, and fun. We look forward to the chance to walk with your baby as they grow into the person God made them to be. Their childhood would be filled with lot of grandma time, many camping trips, various vacations, and time together. We will walk with them through each stage of life, giving them the love they need to thrive. We will strive to keep your baby safe and protected through the ups and downs of life.
We know this may not be the decision you want to make, but our hope is to be the family for your baby. We very much appreciate your consideration as you look at your baby’s future. We admire how brave you are to be walking this road and hope to be able to walk it with you.
Our Lifestyle
We are Dave and Erin from a small town in Oregon. We have known each other a long time and started dating in 2012. We have been married since 2013, and have three children. Dave is a pastor who oversees a small church camp 30 minutes from town. He is a fun, go-with-the-flow sort of guy who loves to talk to people. Erin is the office manager of a small, family-owned electrical company. She is an organized planner who is more introverted and enjoys being home.
Our oldest son, Cole, is in middle school and can make friends with anyone he meets! He’s a big thinker and quite the talker, too. Alanna is in elementary school and very sweet! She adores dolphins, anything girly or pink, and time with her friends. Oliver is also in elementary school and crazy smart! He is an absolute goofball who loves jokes and playing with others. Some of our favorite things to do together are going to Disneyland, camping in our trailer, taking trips to the beach, and riding bikes. We also enjoy movies, jigsaw puzzles, and board games.
Our Home & Neighborhood
Our Family & Friends
Both of our families are involved with us and our kids. Dave’s mom and Erin’s parents both live within ten minutes driving distance of us and are very much a part of everyday life. We enjoy family dinners, camping, vacations, and holidays together. One of our favorite traditions is eating Swedish pancakes and potato sausage on holiday mornings while watching any parades that may be on.
Between the two of us, we have four brothers (and one who passed away from pancreatic cancer a few years ago), five sisters-in-law, and thirteen nieces and nephews ages 4 to 20. While none of them live in town with us, we still quite enjoy connecting with them when we have the opportunity, whether that is a quick dinner or a weekend stay.
We have a support system of friends, especially in our church and school families., several of whom have adopted themselves. They have walked with us through the ups and downs of life, encouraging and uplifting our family.
