Our Story

Rob and Jami stayed up all night that night talking, laughing, and building a bond together that neither had ever expected.


Jami and Rob during their son's newborn photoshoot.
Rob and Jami met at the age of 28 when he
responded to her add on Craigslist, looking for a roommate. Before work one Saturday afternoon, Rob came over to look at the house and right away there was an instant connection. Rob knew he had to see Jami again so after work that evening he sent Jami a text message asking if she would like to hang out. Hesitant at first, Jami finally agreed., and Rob left work and headed back over to Jami's house. Rob and Jami stayed up all night that night talking, laughing, and building a bond together that neither had ever expected. Since that night Rob and Jami became inseparable and quickly fell in love. Four years later Rob felt it was time to make it official and proposed to Jami at a beautiful winery while her family watched with joy! She said yes of course and a year later they were married. Rob and Jami feel so blessed to have found each other. Since being married one of the biggest blessings in their lives has been the adoption of their son Caleb. He has brought so much more love and joy to their family! Together they love to go on road trips, gather with their friends and family, explore new adventures, and spend summers in their backyard swimming in the pool and enjoying an evening by the fire. At the same time they also appreciate little things like relaxing together on rainy days, dinner dates, playing with their dog, going to the movies, game nights, and trying ultimately to treat each other with love and respect. We are ready to give our unconditional love to a child and expand our family through the miracle of adoption once again!

Our promise to you

Since the day we were married we have dreamed about being parents and having children to raise in a loving home! We are very excited to continue to grow our family through adoption once again and have so much love to share with this child as we expand our family. We promise you that we will provide the most loving and secure environment that we possibly can. We promise to unconditionally love and cherish your child. We promise to celebrate adoption like the beautiful act that it is and make sure your child knows what a selfless act you have made and how much you love him/her. We promise to always keep you in our thoughts and prayers. We promise to always strive to be the best parents we can be and to raise your child to be the best person he/she can be. We hope this profile gave you a glimpse into our lives and see how your child could fit in. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about us. Sincerely, Rob, Jami, and Caleb

Adventures and Interests

We love going on adventures with our families. We love getting to see and experience new places, people, and foods! We try each year to take a family vacation, whether it's close to home or a far off destination. Some of our favorite trips include zip lining in Mexico, horseback riding in Virginia, and soaking up the sun in Florida. In our free time we enjoy spending time at home watching movies or swimming in our pool. We enjoy hanging out with friends and family doing a variety of activities and creating memories.

Family traditions

As a family we have many traditions. We look forward to them each season. Many of them have been passed down from our great grandparents. Every year we go out and find, and cut down our own Christmas tree. We always make it a point to celebrate birthdays together. At Christmas time we spend a day making cookies to enjoy and share with our friends and family.

Careers

Rob is a CNC technician and has been in that field for over 16 years. Jami is a Speech-Language Pathologist and has been enjoying her work for over 17 years.

Jami's extended family

Jami's family is spread out all over the country. Jami's immediate family lives close by in NY and they enjoy getting together for holidays, birthdays, and even just an afternoon on the weekend to spend time together. Jami's family is also just as excited to welcome a new child to the family as they are.

Rob's extended family

Rob comes from a large and loving family. Most of his family lives in either New York or Florida. Every year his family in New York gathers together for a family reunion. While we don't get to see his family in Florida as much, Rob talks to them on a regular basis and we enjoy going down to visit them as much as possible. They are all excited to welcome a new child to the family.

Our home

We live in a quiet, family oriented neighborhood. A place where neighbors sit out on their porches watching the kids run around and ride their bikes up and down the street. We love that we have many parks, beaches, and amusements within driving distance. On hot summer days we enjoy swimming in our pool in our fenced in backyard and relaxing by the fire roasting marshmallows in the evening. On cooler nights we can be found relaxing in the hot tub.

How Jami thinks of Rob

Rob is a wonderful husband and father. I love our life together and after nine years of marriage I think he is ne of the most outstanding people I know. He is my best friend, my rock, and he never ceases to amaze me. He is such an amazingly hard worker. He compassionate, yet strong. He's loyal and honest. He is an amazing dad to our son Caleb! Rob always has a new endeavor and always has our family at the front of his mind. I love this man and cannot imagine my life without him. The bond we share is truly a gift. I am so thankful for him.

How Rob thinks of Jami

Jami is my partner in life, I love her very much! I feel that she is one of the most generous, caring, loving, and thoughtful person I know. She makes me a better person and continually motivates me throug our life. Jami is always willing to lend a helping hand. She is more than my wife, Jami is my best friend! I feel very fortunate to be married to her and have her in my life. She is an amazing mother to our son Caleb and I know we will continue to make an outstanding team as parents as we continue to grow our family.
