Zack and Amy
We're looking to adopt a baby
Hello, we are Amy and Zack! Thank you for reading our story and learning about our family.
We met in 2000 at a Halloween party thrown by our friends. After Zack took a few jabs for not wearing a costume, we made a connection and had a great night. We decided to continue seeing each other and never looked back. We took many adventures through the years before getting married but finally had our wedding with all our family and friends in 2007.
We were ready to grow our family soon after we married but had difficulties getting pregnant. After three years and fertility treatments, which did not result in pregnancies, we conceived and had our first child, Ike, in 2010. Breccan, our second child, arrived in 2013.
Imagining our future family has always included ideas for adoption, as we have family and friends who come from adopted families. With the arrival of Ike and Breccan, that picture never changed. Ike and Breccan love the idea of being big brothers. Younger children gravitate towards them, and the boys relish the chance to take them under their wings and play silly games.
We are so excited to welcome another child into our loving family, and we look forward to meeting you!
