(as written by Christine)
Brian has a warm and inviting smile and his laugh is very contagious. He makes us laugh everyday! He likes to make silly faces, especially taking his own candid silly pictures!
He is a great Dad! Brian loves to spend time with the boys. He often takes them to Kindermusik. He sings tells stories, like to take the boys on walks, visit the farms, planetarium visits, T-ball, soccer, drives in the car, and any exploration. Brian and the boys can't wait to go on more adventures with another child!
Brian loves to program computers and websites. He works in the travel industry as a computer programmer/analyst. As a family we get to travel the world. Brian really enjoys learning about others through his travels. We have been to Sweden, London, Disney World, Philadelphia, NYC (he love the Broadway plays), Japan, Mexico City, Texas, etc. As a couple we have spent our anniversaries in Hawaii! Brian likes to spend time with our family, go to movies, host summer parties, BBQ, and light fireworks. He loves politics and radio talk shows, and likes to have constructive discussions on political topics. He likes to automate our home and work on new improvements in the house and yard. Most important he is extremely patriotic!
One of the best attributes of Brian is his passion about his hobbies. He loves music, going to plays, concerts, opera, and the symphony. He enjoys books, ham radio, Ebay bidding, watching basketball and football games. He enjoys astronomy and the space program. He is our tour guide when we go to NASA and the national space and flight museums. He likes to tackle a problem and get the answer. Because of his insatiable curiosity his nickname is Bug-E-Boy or now that I he’s more mature (LOL) Mr. Bug.
Christine has sparkling green eyes. She has a light about her that draws people to her and people feel comfortable around her. I admire her dedication and love for our family. Christine loves to decorate for the holidays especially Harvest and Christmas! She’s a little competitive when it comes to decorating…she loves to be the first on the street to decorate for the holiday season so it can last a little longer. Our Our boys have their own Christmas tree in their rooms and she can hardly wait to decorate a tree for another child!!
She loves music, singing, the theater, ballet, opera, symphonies, antiques, and reading. She loves the synergy of literature and drama at a Shakespearean Festival. Even though she doesn’t think she’s very good at it - she likes to bake and scrapbook. She honors her heritage, thinks it's important to preserve history, keep track of what is happening in our family, and remember her ancestors.
She loves reading and collecting children's books. She loves a treasure hunt, sifting through the rack for a special children's book. She enjoys helping children discover through music, exploring the zoo, park, and traveling. She loves the excitement of discovery!!
She is a tender mom and her happiest moments are reading a bedtime story and singing a lullaby to our children. She loves to be home with her boys. She is hoping for another child to cherish!
Meet James
My name is Ashton James or my nickname BAJA -- James is after my Daddy. My Daddy has the name James after his grandpa. The name Ashton is in honor of my birthmom Ashlee. I will always remember Ashlee and how much she loved me by placing me for adoption.
We have a VERY OPEN adoption with my birthmom. I was able to be a part of my birthmom's wedding. I am happy that she gave me a family and she found her happiness too! My birthmom loves my brothers Christian& Jonathan too.
I love music! I take Kindermusik where I can learn new songs, play instruments (the drum is my favorite), and see my friends. I love to be with other kids!! I love cars, running, the water, playing on the slide, bubbles, and my bike. I love to laugh, make funny faces, and tell silly stories. I love to say hi to everyone and talk to everybody I meet. I love being a big brother!
Mommy and Daddy take me on airplane rides. We’ve been to Hawaii and Disneyland. I love the ocean!! I love to say hi to everyone and talk to everybody I meet.
Mommy and Daddy not only go on dates but think it's important to take us boys on family dates too! I feel so big when they let me order my pepperoni pizza, cheese quesadilla, or my favorite Maac & Cheese! Since Mommy and Daddy waited a long time for me to join the family, we celebrated my birthday every month (just for the first year). We celebrate Christian's and Jonathan's birthdays too. I am excited for my sister to join us in all the fun! I can’t wait to have a monthly birthday party them too!
Meet Christian
I am so happy to be with my family! I always have a smile on my face. I love to talk and be apart of the action!! I LOVE to be with my big brother! We love to talk with each other, watch shows together, cuddle during storytime, race cars together, and PLAY! I try to be just as big as he is. I want to run and play just as fast. I LOVE sports. I always have a ball in my hand. I'm excited that I'm a big brother too!! I love to play with my brothers.
My birthfamily lives further away but we still have an open adoption! Mama and Daddy were there for my birth and stayed with us in the hospital. We send letters, pictures, and packages to them. We talk on the phone and send text messages too. We love them. I'm not the only one my birthfamily placed for adoption. I am also glad that they placed a child with a family that lives in a neighboring city. We have a relationship with them too.
Meet Jonathan
Don't let my size fool you! I have a big heart! I love to be with my brothers. I like to see what they are doing. My big brothers protect me and are such a comfort to me. I have a smile that melts your heart. I'm really really ticklish so my brothers tickle me! I'm taking Kindermusik too..I'm trying to sing along.
My birthfamily lives close by and for now we share letters and pictures so they can see how I'm growing and love being with my family.
