dear expectant mother
Just the thought of you reading our profile warms our hearts. We truly believe adoption is what we are meant to do and the way our family will begin. We cannot wait to share memories and our life’s journey with your precious baby upon choosing us. Our family, friends, and community are excited and eager to watch us become parents, and we all continue to pray for the blessing of our first child.
Your baby will be so loved and will enjoy our daily adventures throughout the year. Summers are filled with swimming, boat rides, fishing, and bonfires. Winters are filled with sledding, snowmen, cuddles on the couch, baking lots of goodies, and Christmas celebrations. In the fall, we enjoy the color changes, lots of farm time, pumpkin patches, apple orchards, and shopping. When spring comes, we enjoy planting flowers, playing outside, walks, picnics, and traveling.
Your precious baby will be the center of our world, and he or she will be loved by so many. We continue to work on our lifelong goals and dreams, and by loving your child, our number one dream would come true. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us and considering us. We would be so blessed to get to know you and share our lives with your baby.
About Us
Jimmy is the comforting, calm, easygoing one, and Jenáe is the planner, worrier, and most outgoing one. We are always hugging and showing each other affection during random little moments. We love spending time with our friends and family grilling and hanging out or just enjoying the time with just the two of us (and our dogs) cuddled up on the couch watching our favorite shows or a movie. Jimmy has worked in lawn and landscaping as a lawn care servicer and in snow removal for almost five years, and enjoys being able to be outside on a daily basis. Jenáe was a special education teacher for four years but recently decided to open an in-home daycare. She absolutely loves working from home and soaks up all the snuggles and giggles with the children. Our compassion for children is admired by everyone who knows us. The daycare children absolutely adore when Jimmy is home.
Our Home & Pets
We were both born and raised in Minnesota and love the seasons and adventures Minnesota offers. Our home is blessed with two precious fur babies, Joey and Jetta. We have a large corner lot with two fenced-in yards. One yard is filled with various children’s toys and a swing set, and the other has our family pool and fire pit. We are located less than one mile from the schools. There is also a beautiful open park with a playground across the street where our dogs love to run and play fetch. Our home is a three-bedroom split-level with lots of space for family gatherings. We have a large park nearby, complete with waterfalls, a small zoo, and multiple playgrounds.
Our Extended Family
Family is everything to us. Jenáe has a younger sister she talks to daily, and Jimmy has two brothers (one older and one younger). We have five nephews between ages 2 and 15 and a niece (family friend’s daughter). We are very close with our parents and talk to them and visit regularly.
We love being at the family farm for adventures like four-wheeler rides, feeding the calves and pigs, etc. Jimmy spends time in the fall helping with the harvest. Both of our families are beyond excited to add a precious blessing to our family and have been praying for and supporting us every step of the way.
Christmas with our families is a huge part of our traditions. We decorate our home inside and out. Christmas Eve is spent with Jenáe’s family with a big supper and all types of games. We spend Christmas morning at home and open presents with just the two of us. By Christmas afternoon, we are with Jimmy’s side at the family farm watching our nephews open their gifts and playing games with them. We have had the privilege to host both sides of our family for holidays as well, and we absolutely love having everyone together.
What Led Us To Adoption
Since the day we met, we both knew we wanted to become parents. We tried to have a biological child but have since discovered we have little to no ability to do so. Adoption has been an option and an ongoing discussion since we started trying to grow our family. We absolutely love children, and our hearts are filled with joy toward every child we meet. We knew from the beginning we would be willing to open our arms and hearts to adoption. We are blessed to have several friends and family members to learn from who have adoption in their families, including Jimmy’s oldest brother. We believe it is the love within your hearts that truly makes you a family.

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!
