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.

Kevin & Caiti

Hi! We’re Kevin and Caiti. We’ve been married for 9 years and have three beautiful daughters, Amelia (6), Annie (4), and Abigail (1.5). We are an active, fun and welcoming family and we love being together. Our favorite family activities are swimming, playing games, having dance parties and going on road trips. The girls love to snuggle with us, each other, and our dog Hettie. We are often all on the floor playing, cuddling, reading and crafting.

All of us are very close to our extended families and we try to see them as much as possible. Caiti’s parents live around the corner from us and it is such a blessing getting to see their relationships with our children grow and change each week. We both get such joy in watching our children flourish and getting to see how they love each other has us in awe daily.

We have always known adoption would be part of our path towards completing our family, but it was only recently that we felt God nudging our hearts to know that now is the time. We know that His timing is right and you and your baby were part of God’s plan. We want you to know that we support you and pray that you may find peace as you are going through this incredibly difficult process. Our hope is that you know we are here for you and recognize that there is both immense joy and heartbreaking sadness involved in adoption. You are showing true selfless love for your child and your story will always be known in our family. We are so excited to get to know you and see what God’s plan has in store for all of us.

Mauricio & Elizabeth

Hello! We are Mauricio and Elizabeth. We have been married for 10 wonderful years. We met right after college graduation. After 3 years, we got married. Since then, we have spent our time travelling, learning about different cultures and places, and enjoying each other’s company.  We now have an active toddler and a silly dog, but what we have been looking forward to the most is God’s greatest gift of all, growing our family.

Mauricio is an accounting manager, while Elizabeth works as an office administrator. We love seeing our future as a family grow from 3 to 4, alongside our dog, exploring our neighborhood trails and park. We both attend our local church, and Mauricio volunteers as part of the finance committee, while Elizabeth helps out as faith-formation teacher. On the weekends, we visit our large, loving family and close friends.

As we begin this journey, we pray for you and the bundle of joy that will soon join our family. May God bless you and keep you close.

David & Allison

Howdy! We are David and Allison.  We met over 10 years ago at church and were immediately friends.  After 7 years of friendship, we started dating and in 2021 we finally got married.  We are a fun-loving, adventure-seeking, game-playing family who loves Jesus. We absolutely love our little blended family and are so excited to be on this journey to add another child. We don’t know what feelings you are experiencing right now, but we do thank you for being here. Mostly we want you to know that we will be praying for you and hope we can be a source of love and support to you and your baby, no matter the decision you make. 

Even though Allison can no longer have children, we knew we wanted to raise children together. From the time we started dating we knew that we wanted to adopt. In fact, our first deep conversation when we started dating was about adoption! It has always been our first choice for growing our family. We have several family members and friends who have adopted children.  They have shown us throughout their journeys that adoption is a very special way to create a family filled with unconditional love and support.

David is a software developer and works from home.  Allison is a nurse, but cannot wait to be a stay at home mom when we adopt.  Thomas is Allison’s son (18) who lives at home while attending community college.  Together we love to travel, play board games, spend time with extended family, serve others on mission trips, dress up for a day at the renaissance festival, or hang out around the house. Allison loves baking, working puzzles, and listening to a good audiobook. David loves roller coasters, video games, and amateur photography. Thomas loves computer games, hanging out with friends, and everything Star Wars. We can’t wait to share all these things with our child.

In our home we value faith, family, and fun.  We are excited to provide your child with love, stability, and community in order for them to grow and flourish in our family and in society.  We will always be honest and open about how our family came together and we will always speak of you with love and respect.  We will always make sure your child knows how loved, accepted, and supported they are!

 

Cole & Maddy

Hi there! We are Cole and Maddy. Thank you so much for taking the time to read about our lives!  Although we haven’t met yet, please know we care deeply about you and your journey, and we’re honored by the possibility of welcoming your child into our home.
We met in college and have been happily married for 7 years. Maddy fell in love with Cole for his gentle spirit and his strong faith, while Cole fell in love with Maddy for her selflessness and genuine heart for others.

From the beginning of our marriage, we expressed to one another that being parents would be the greatest calling to our lives. Since then, we’ve had three precious children, and we work each day to create a home full of unconditional love, kindness, grace, silliness, and lots of laughter. We have felt God calling us deeper into parenthood and we (our children included!) joyfully look forward to completing our family through adoption.

We both work from home as software consultants, and Maddy is thankful to have a part-time schedule that allows her to be home with the kids. As a family, we love to go on walks, travel, host dinners with extended family, learn about God together, and have family game nights.

Aaron & Chris Ann

We are Aaron and Chris Ann, and we are so excited to meet you! We have been married for 11 years and have two children, Harris (5) and Annie (4). Whether it’s the big and exciting things – traveling, exploring new parks, trying new restaurants – or the small and simple things –playing in our backyard, going on walks, talking at the dinner table – we love spending time together as a family.

Adoption is already part of our story, as God used it to first grow our family. We had the joy and privilege of walking with Harris’s birth mom through the last few weeks of her pregnancy and being present with her for his birth. Today, we talk about her often, share pictures and updates with her regularly, and visit her around Harris’s birthday and Christmas. She is forever a part of our family, and Harris is happy and thriving, a joy to everyone who knows and loves him.

Adoption is also part of our story from the birth family perspective. Years before becoming mom to Chris Ann, Chris Ann’s mom found herself in a position where placing her child for adoption was the best choice for her and her baby. The way the Lord has worked through the lives of Chris Ann’s mom and sister has shown us firsthand the redemptive and grace-filled way the Lord uses adoption, well into adulthood.

We would be honored to be part of God’s work in the life of you and your sweet baby. You are both being prayed for by many. In addition to us, grandparents, aunts and uncles, an amazing group of friends, and Harris and Annie (especially Harris and Annie!) are all excited and ready to welcome a precious baby into our family and community!
