WAITING FAMILIES

You can choose a family for your child!

The following families are currently waiting to adopt through New Life Adoptions. Only a few of our families are posted on our website right now, but more are creating their online profiles even as we write.

Every adoptive family we work with is thoroughly screened, financially prepared, and has agreed ahead of time to an open adoption (if that’s what you choose). Also, all of our families live in the great state of Texas! We think they are pretty amazing, and we know you will too!

Please contact us for further information on other families available and more detailed information on families currently waiting. We look forward to hearing from you.

Taylor & Avery

What do you get when crossing a Texas boy with a Louisiana girl? For us, it’s a family that loves southern food, spending time outside, and despises mosquitoes. Avery was raised on Cajun cooking, and Taylor appreciates good eats, so a match was made. Enter Christian, who eats more at Saturday brunch than Taylor, and you have a family of foodies. Whether Friday nights at home or monthly Sunday afternoons with friends, we are always up for playing games. We’re blessed to spend a lot of quality time with our wonderful parents and have an amazing network of friends who surround us with love. 

We cherish and value family and are excited to expand that with you, as birth mother, and your child. We feel honored that you’d consider us worthy to love your baby.

God used our experience of infertility and miscarriage to open our hearts to the joys of parenting through adoption, and through that reality with Christian we have truly known no greater joy and look forward to even more joy with another child. We are all God’s children, adopted into His heavenly family, and it’s a great privilege to share in a similar relationship with children here on earth. Thank you for selflessly choosing this unique and beautiful relationship with your baby and granting us the gift of parenthood.

We’re praying for you daily!

Gio & Rey

We’re Rey and Gio, a couple brought together by God, kept together by love, and now stepping into the adventure of parenthood through adoption. Our story began 12 years ago when we met in college. According to Gio, it was love at first sight. With a mix of nerves and charm, he asked Rey for her number, and a sweet friendship quickly blossomed. In a clever move to spend more time together, Gio started a skee-ball team (yes, really!) and not only did the team win second place, but Rey also found herself falling for Gio’s kind heart and generous spirit.

Rey was born in Cuba and immigrated to Texas at a young age, and Gio, who is African-American and Chinese with Mexican roots, was raised in a warm, tight-knit family. Together, we’ve built a life that reflects the beauty of our cultures, our faith, and our deep love for community. Whether we’re hosting game nights with friends, traveling somewhere new, or just enjoying a quiet evening cooking together, we’re most at home when we’re surrounded by love and laughter.

Since the early days of dating, we’ve had a heart for adoption. That dream has only grown stronger through the years, and we are now joyfully preparing our hearts and home to welcome a child. We know that adoption is built on loss as much as it is on love, and our deepest hope is that you feel seen, supported, and cared for every step of the way. We desire to raise a child in a home where they are deeply loved, celebrated for who they are, and always reminded of the incredible strength and sacrifice that brought them into our lives. A story that includes you, always!

Nick & Andrea

Hi there, we are Nick, Andrea and Sophia! We met through church and from the minute Nick laid eyes on Andrea he knew that there was something special about her. Eventually he worked up the courage to ask her out on a date and the rest is history. We have now been married for 6 years and have always had adoption in our hearts and knew God would bring it into our life at some point.

Nick is a geologist at an oil and gas company, and Andrea runs a root cause health business and believes every day needs a kitchen dance party! We love spending time as a family—traveling, going on adventures around town, being outside, DIY home projects, and gathering with friends and family as often as possible. Faith is the heartbeat of our home, and we pray our children always know how deeply loved, seen, and cherished they are—not just by us, but by God.

In May 2024, our family grew by one as we adopted our sweet baby girl, Sophia. Adoption has deepened our faith, expanded our hearts, and shown us the overwhelming, unconditional love of Christ in a whole new way.

We know adoption weaves beauty and bravery together, and we deeply respect the courage it takes to choose this path. If you’re considering us, please know we’re praying for you and already cheering for your child’s future. Our promise is a home overflowing with faith, love, and endless adventure.

With gratitude, Nick, Andrea & Sophia

Michael & Lauren

Before we introduce ourselves, we want you to know how loved, cherished, prayed for and important you and your child are. We are Lauren and Michael, and our story began in 2015. We began dating after realizing we went to the same church and fell in love a few months later. After getting engaged, we got married in 2017.

We’ve always known we wanted children and after trying to have a baby and going through multiple rounds of IVF, the Lord continued to put adoption before us. Our prayer is to know you and welcome you into our family. In 2022, we were blessed by adoption and welcomed our son, Robbie. We have a wonderful relationship with the birth family and that’s our hope for you, too! Robbie has been such a joy and added so much love to our family. We would love for him to have a baby brother or sister. He loves our family dog, Cece, and already tries to share his toys and food with her, so we know he would be a wonderful big brother!

The three of us have so much fun together. We love to laugh, give our Cece lots of snuggles, and travel the world together. We have a huge support system of family and friends who love us and are waiting expectantly with us. Our faith is core to our marriage and each other, and we desire to raise a child in a loving, Christian, supportive home. We hope to meet you soon!

Stephen & Michelle

Hello, we are Stephen and Michelle! We met in Dallas in our late 20’s as young professionals, eager and hopeful to find love and start a family. Stephen is an entrepreneur and business owner who grew up sailing and boating, and Michelle, now a stay-at-home mom, is a speech-language pathologist by profession with a passion for helping people find their voice again.

We both come from close-knit families where Jesus, love, and community are at the heart of everything. Our Catholic Christian faith is a joyful part of our daily life, and we love living out the liturgical year—bringing feast and fast days, and holy celebrations into our home. As a family, we also love breaking bread with our friends—opening our home for dinners, rosary potluck nights, or just-because pizza on Fridays!

As a family of four, we cherish our annual trip to Broken Bow, Oklahoma, beach days with the kids, and birthday celebrations that are anything but small! We love filling our home with laughter, friends of all ages, and plenty of cake!

The Lord placed adoption on our hearts several years ago, and He has guided us step-by-step to this very moment. In His perfect timing, He made it clear that adoption was His plan for our family.

Michelle has held close to Luke 1:45: “Blessed is she who believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her.”With all our hearts, we believe the Lord will fulfill His promises, not only to us, but to you as well. Please know we have been praying for you, and many of our friends and family are prayer warriors lifting you up each day. We already hold you close in our hearts.

Justin & Celina

Justin and Celina met through work and have been together for over 10 years. From the very beginning, God had put adoption on our hearts! After years of trying for a new baby, and Lucas and Gabriel also wanting a new baby brother or sister, we discovered that adoption is God’s plan for growing their family. After years of having adoption on our hearts, the time has finally come for us to adopt!

We have many hobbies and love spending time together. We love being outdoors fishing, hiking, playing sports, or just grilling on the back porch! When it’s time to go inside, dance parties in the living room or family movie nights are always waiting. The family dog, Bolt, always wants to play, and Lucas and Gabriel run an egg business with their 7 chickens!

We are honored that you would consider our family, and we are praying that God will direct your heart, and guide your path as you make this important decision. If you feel led to choose our family, we look forward to welcoming you and your baby into our family!

Samuel & Taylor

Hi-We are Samuel and Taylor!

We met in 2014 during college where we lived in the same apartment complex, attended and volunteered at the same church, and student organization. We married in the summer of 2017 surrounded by close friends and family at a local state park to honor all of our outdoor adventures. Our family consists of the two of us and our two sweet pups, Finley and Kaiser. In our free time we enjoy hiking, walking our dogs around our neighborhood and parks, playing board games, going to coffee shops to read, and being with friends and family.

During our journey to parenthood, the Lord has led us to adoption and with the support of our Church family, friends, and family we are ready to welcome a little one into our home where they will be loved and supported by our entire community.
