Why we are adopting.

We always knew we wanted a big family. We both grew up in large families, Tyler the oldest of 5 and Jen the oldest of 6. So having a small family was never an option!

We were so happy when we found out (on our 1st anniversary!) that we were expecting Luke and were thrilled to welcome him into our family in May 2004. Then we were so blessed to welcome our second son Isaac to our home in Feb. 2006.

When Isaac was about a year old we decided it was time to try for baby # three. Things didn't go as planned and for two years we went through the emotional roller coaster of many tests, misdiagnoses, and treatments, until we finally learned that we wouldn't be able to conceive another child.

But that won't stop us from building our family to have the house full of kids that we dreamed of! We are so grateful that we are able to build our family though the miracle of adoption! We have so much love for our kids and look forward to having our love grow as more children come into our home! Luke and Isaac are so excited to have a new little baby come to our home, whether it is a little sister to protect, or a little brother to teach all about trains, they will be awesome big brothers!
