Welcome

We set up our adoption blog so you can get to know our family a little better. I started blogging back in 2007 and have kept up with it over the years. At the end of every year, we print off our blog for that year and give it to Daniel's mom for her Christmas present. She keeps all of her children's yearly journals in a notebook that we will get back one day to pass down to our kids. I try to keep it up to date as much as I can.


When we decided to start the adoption process, I decided to make an identical blog for birth mothers to read. Everything that I write about my family on our personal blog, I copy it over to my adoption blog. I understand that an adoption profile only gives limited information about us and we want you to have the opportunity to really get to know who we are and what we like to do as a family. Our adoption blog will show you who we were even before we adopted our boys. Feel free to read as much as you want or click on the links up above!

Red Thread Sessions

I have a friend, who is an adoptee and a photographer, who has worked together with another photographer to start up a program to offer a free photo session to families who have recently adopted. Even birth mother can receive a free photo session if they would like some birth photos of their baby. They are hoping to get several photographers to volunteer across the US. They now have almost 200 photographers in the United States and are growing more every day. Amy is an amazing woman for doing this and has the biggest heart. She took our family pictures in May of last year and we LOVE them! I posted a blog button on the right hand side under my blog archive if you want to check it out. Here are some pictures she took of us last year on her new website that just launched!
