Are Hoping to Adopt a Baby

dear expectant mother

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for considering us as adoptive parents for your baby. We want you to know how brave you are. Making an adoption plan for your baby is so very difficult, and we honor you for considering it.

Raising a child is something we take very seriously; we see it as the most important work we will do in our lives. We’ve been blessed to adopt two children, now 4 and 2. Should you choose our family, your child will be loved tirelessly by their parents and siblings unconditionally. Your baby will always know of the selfless sacrifice you made and how much you love them. If desired by you, we would love to build and maintain a relationship with you as well. We want your child to know their biological family, culture, and background.

Raising your baby will be the joy of our lives. We will work hard to help them reach their dreams, and we’ll provide them with love every step of the way. They will be met with opportunities and support from us and so many others. They will have a safe and loving home and a community to help them flourish every day of their life. It would be our utmost honor to raise your child.

Our Love Story

We are high school sweethearts who’ve now been married 13 years. We met in middle school but became really close after we were assigned as wrestling partners in the 9th grade. By 10th grade, we were dating. We attended college together and grew closer as the years passed.

A month after graduating college, we were married in the small hometown church where we grew up, surrounded by our families, who all still live in that same little town. The officiant was the youth pastor who had baptized us both. The next week, we moved out of state to our first little apartment, where we adopted a dog and started building our life together. Since then, we’ve filled our home with love, joy, more dogs, and eventually kids.

Along the way, we’ve made one another our highest priority. Now, in this kid-centered stage of life, that’s harder, but after the kids go to bed we often find ourselves talking late into the night and we’re reminded why we chose one another.

Our Home & Neighborhood

We live in a cozy three‑bedroom that’s already full of life, and we’ll likely be expanding soon as our family grows. Our neighborhood is quiet and friendly, with a busy park just one block away where our kids play with friends. We’re in a major Southern city with endless things for children to explore—a world-class zoo, aquarium, a children’s museum, beautiful parks, and even wildlife safaris. The summers are hot, but we’re outside almost year‑round. Because Cody is a dog trainer, we always have a couple of dogs around; Daisy, his retired competition dog, is enjoying her slower days, while Kuno, his current competition dog, happily tags along to work and plays in the yard with the kids.

Our Family & Friends

Our family is small but steady. Cody is an only child; Halee has one brother with two children and a late sister with two children; all four grandparents are still with us. Even though distance keeps us from seeing extended family as often as we’d like, they remain an important part of our lives, and we make the most of every visit. Here at home, we’ve built a close circle of friends who feel like chosen family—people who show up for birthdays, last‑minute dinners, and the everyday chaos of raising kids. Much of our time together is spent outside: playing at the park, going on long walks with our kids and dogs, and enjoying simple routines that keep us connected. Any child who joins our family will grow up surrounded by people who love them, cheer for them, and make sure they always feel like they belong.

Adoption in Our Lives

We had wanted to adopt since we were first married, so we originally became foster parents. It was the most wonderful and the most difficult thing we had ever done. After a few heartbreaks, we decided to try private infant adoption. We adopted our first child in 2022, and we still have a great relationship with her biological family. Eventually we adopted our second daughter after fostering her for 18 months. Today we have three children: 4yo adopted daughter, 2.5yo adopted daughter, and a 1.5yo biological son. There was a time that we wondered, as many do: will I love an adopted child like I would love a biological child? We are the perfect case study: we regularly forget which is which.
