Erik and I are so excited to announce that we have started the very bumpy, fun and quite often challenging path of adopting a baby!! Erik and I have been trying to have a baby for a few years unsuccessfully. Adoption was an option that we were always open to, and we both feel that it is time to begin this process. We both feel so blessed to have a strong marriage, financial stability, amazing friends and family, and so much more to share with a child of our own. We always knew that even if we had a child naturally, we wanted to adopt. It's something that is very close to our hearts because we know how wonderful and fulfilling adoption can be!
We really want to use this blog to tell our life story, get information to our friends and family regarding our progress and of course using it to reach out to potential birth mothers who might be considering us as adoptive parents.
Erik and I met with our lawyer a few weeks ago, and we understand that there are going to be many ups and downs in the process. We ask that you please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. We are looking foward for that future post to share the upcoming arrival of Baby Tuft!
I'm also going to try to share as many pictures as I can to help tell our story!
This picture below is one of our first pics right after we met in 2003. We were so young! :)
This pic was taken on Erik's birthday in July 2013.
And of course, no post about me and Erik would be complete without picture of our fur-babies! The first pic is of Cydnee (our first child - 10 years old) and Dixie (8 years old).
