MATCH!!! (Unofficially)

The timeline in which our adoption has moved is quite unbelievable and amazing... It was just 6 months ago that we submitted our application. We know without a doubt that our process is not typical of Lifeline or any adoption.



We have decided to pursue the adoption of 4 children in Poland. They are precious. We are so ready for them to come home. Our dossier is in Poland getting translated as we speak. The next step is to send our I-I-800 when it comes in and then get it all registered at the National Adoption Center in Poland.They will then give us the official referral. \


Keller likes looking at picture of her big brothers and little sister... She is ready for them to come home and play tennis ball!



3 boys and a girl.

Our oldest, who shall lovingly be referred to as #1, is 10 years old. He will turn 11 before he becomes our son because he has an upcoming birthday. He really enjoys playing soccer and music. 

Our second son shall be affectionately be referred to as #2, just turned 9! He plays soccer and likes to play hide and seek with his younger siblings.

               (Dear friends, I know NOTHING about being a soccer mom... any advice is welcomed in the comment section)

Our third son, sweet #3, just turned 5. All three boys have summer birthdays. Our relaxing summers are going to be quite full of celebration. One sweet thing is that #3 and future dad have the SAME birthday! Good thing future dad is good at sharing.

Baby girl just turned 3 this past spring. In fact, she is the only one in our family that does not have summer birthday. She likes fairy tales.


Maybe baby girl needs a gigantic pink unicorn doll.... then again, maybe not.

We will not be posting any pictures of them for 2 reasons... 1. we do not have an official referral and we do not want to risk anything with the Polish government and 2. We do not want pictures of our children floating around the internet without our knowing. If you want to see their picture, comment below and I'll privately email you. 
Our FAQ's will be posted later this week... Feel free to ask questions, but know that we may use our parental right to not answer them.  

Thank you for loving them already!
