Our Family

Through the miracle of Adoption, we are a family of 4.

Emma is 6 1/2 and Elianna just turned 2. They are honestly the most beautiful little girls in the world, and we are not biased at all. lol. Christian is a Mechanical Engineer and absolutely loves his work. Before becoming a stay at home Mommy, I was a social worker, working with children. I miss my job but LOVE being at home with my girls.

Christian and I both have big families, and so our girls are spoiled by grandparents and Uncles and Aunts. TONS of cousins, and lot's of family get togethers and fun times.

We would LOVE to have you get to know our family more, I promise we are fun and interesting and not that crazy. ha ha. Please feel free to contact us!

Our Miracles.

Emma and Elianna are our miracles. Hands down. Through the miracle of adoption, we are parents to these PERFECT, beautiful little beings, and not one day goes by that we aren't eternally grateful to their AMAZING birth Mommies and birth families.

These two have an unexplainable connection that is so precious to witness....

Emma is our sassy red head.

She's beautiful, smart, caring and LOVES her baby sister. Since the day she was placed in our arms, she has brought nothing but happiness and joy to our lives. We are so honored to be her parents.

Elianna (Ellie) Is our soft, gentle 1 year old.
She is so layed back, friendly and LOVES her big sister. She has the sweetest spirit, and everyday we are so thankful to be her mommy and Daddy.

Em and Ellie are our miracles through and through. Their birth Mom's are a MASSIVE part of our lives, and we are so thankful for that. Adoption is a miracle in itself. One that we are so honored to be apart of.

OUR STORY!

Well, let's see. Our story is pretty funny.

Christian and I met in College. We were just friends, and wrote during his mission. When he got home, we caught up as friends, and ended up becoming much more which was shocking for us both. lol. We dated for about a year and then married in August of 2003. Best decision ever! After almost 12 years of marriage he is still my best friend!

When Christian and I were dating, I was so scared to tell him about the fact that due to severe Endometriosis, I probably wouldn't ever be able to have children. His response floored me when I did. He didn't care. Being with me, was all that mattered. THAT is Christian in a nutshell. Selfless, caring and unconditionally loving. I couldn't ask for a better eternal companion.

We started fertility treatments shortly after we were married. Over the course of 8 years, IVF attempts, surgeries and losing 6 babies we knew the time had come to just STOP. I myself am adopted. We wanted to adopt whether we could successfully have biological children or not, so adoption was our answer, and we loved that.

Looking back, I am so thankful for our journey. It brought us closer together than I ever thought possible. Loss and trials will do that if you let them. Emma and Ellie are our miracles through and through, and neither one of us would change the outcome. We are an eternal family of 4, and pray that someday our family can grow through the miracle of adoption once more....
