Hello, we are Andrew and Shiloh. We are very honored that you are taking the time to get to know us a little. We met in 2012, just before Christmas. We were each out with our own friends and happened to sit next to each other. We started talking…and talking…for hours!!! Fast forward to August 2017 and we got married.
Andrew is a successful small business owner and Shiloh is a Radiologic Technologist. Fortunately, being the owner of his business, this allows Andrew very flexible work hours. Although Shiloh loved her job, about a year and a half ago, she took a step back from work to focus on our adoption process and in the hopes that if we were chosen, she could be at home taking care of the baby full-time.
Four years ago, we decided to build our dream home. Five months before our house was finished being built, COVID struck, and we had also found out we could not have children. It was a very uncertain time, but we got through it. We had discussed in the past that we both wanted to adopt whether we could have kids or not; we have a lot of friends and family who are adopted and it seemed like the perfect option for us. So, with our home completed and us still having the dream of filling it with our future family, we set out to adopt and a little over a year ago, that dream became a reality.
Our son, Sawyer Grey, was born August 2022, on our five-year anniversary. Talk about meant to be. That day…it was a day filled with pure joy for us. We were so incredibly happy; Sawyer’s birthmother did that for us and Sawyer at a huge sacrifice to herself and we will forever be grateful to her. Sawyer just turned 16 months and he is the smiliest little boy and so smart. He has grown so quickly, and it has been the highlight of our lives to witness it. We both have very large families and the year that Sawyer was born, we had eight other babies born between our two families. He has lots of cousins to run wild with and it has been beautiful to watch them grow together.
We hope to one day be able to adopt another child(ren) and Sawyer to have siblings. He would make such a great big brother and we know he’d try to teach them everything he knows: the best snacks/food, the coolest toys, best peek-a-boo spots, etc. We also know that in order for us to adopt, a birthmother would have to make the hardest decision of her life. We could never presume to know what you or any other birthmother must be going through. All we could tell you is that we would love your child with all that we have and that you will always be a part of them. They will always know that you were the bravest. Thank you so much for reading our profile and considering us. We wish you well and we hope you find peace in your heart.
