about us
Meet Riley
I look forward to sharing my love of sports with our kiddo. I own a company and am excited to pass on my entrepreneurial spirit and family name. My biggest dream is to become a dad.

Meet Meagan
We'll care for our child at home and won't explore external childcare options.
We are committed to staying at home
Due to the nature of our careers,
We both work from home
and will be stay-at-home parents.

Riley runs his own business from our home, and I (Meagan) am currently writing my doctoral dissertation from home.
We are committed to creating an environment where at least one of us is always present, and are not considering external childcare services. We know that every family is different,
celebrating the new year from Disney World
We rang in the New Year from Florida — spending time with both sides of our family is always so much fun.
eating lots of yummy food
One of Riley's hobbies is cooking. I (Meagan) benefit from his love of making great food!
spending time at the dog park
We love going on walks around our neighborhood with Memphis (our pup) and driving north to a dog park where he can make lots of friends and get his wiggles out!
taking a trip to Africa
The opportunity to spend time in Morocco this year changed our lives. It was a fantastic adventure, and we cannot wait to share our love of traveling with our child.
serving with youth in our community
Riley works with teenage boys ages 14-16, and I worked with teenage girls to help organize a summer camp.
building businesses + pursuing education
Riley took his love of soccer and owns his own business selling custom jerseys. He has teams across the United States and in Guyana.
enjoying thanksgiving with Riley's family in Arizona
We loved spending Thanksgiving in Arizona. The highlight? Telling our families we are hoping to adopt.
going to Utah for Christmas
We alternate spending Thanksgiving and Christmas with our families, ensuring we spend quality time with both during the holiday season.
last but not least, starting the adoption process
If you are reading this, you most likely know we are searching for our child. If you are looking to place a child, please refer to "our letter to you." If you are not looking to place a child, we would love for you to share our website (on social media and word-of-mouth).

our community
We own our dream home and are so grateful for each day we spend together here. The best part? There is so much room to grow! Our backyard is the perfect size to play catch, and multiple parks, soccer fields, ponds, and playgrounds are within walking distance. We are so excited to feed the neighborhood ducks and baby turtles with our child.

the star of the show: Memphis
In 2022, we rescued a tiny puppy from a nearby shelter. Memphis keeps our lives busy, and we love the energy he brings to our home. In this picture, he is enjoying one of our back porch summer movie nights. He is the best protector and will be the best big brother.
