Family Life

Our favorite place has always been home. Since moving in together, we’ve poured our hearts into making our house a warm, welcoming place filled with love and laughter. Whether we’re painting a room, tackling a new project, or simply enjoying a quiet evening together, we love creating a home where memories are made.

When we’re not working on the house, you’ll usually find us down the shore. We love spending summer days at the beach, walking the boardwalk, and enjoying the simple moments together. During the holiday season, we embrace family traditions like hayrides at the farm, driving to see Christmas lights, baking cookies from our family recipes, and picking out our Christmas tree. These are the moments we look forward to every year, and we can’t wait to share them with a child.

Faith has always been an important part of our lives. We were both raised in the Catholic faith and received all of our sacraments. Today, we continue to live our lives guided by Christian values of kindness, compassion, gratitude, and love. Our son has been raised with the same values that are important to our family.

Family means everything to us, and we are incredibly grateful for the love and support that surrounds us. Between our parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, and lifelong friends, there is an entire village excited to welcome a child into our lives. Kimberly has an older brother, an older sister, and three wonderful nieces. Alex has two younger brothers who are a big part of our family as well. We know your child will grow up surrounded by people who will cheer them on, celebrate their milestones, and love them unconditionally.

We also have a sweet Maltipoo named Ruby, who is seven years old. She is gentle, playful, and absolutely loves children. Ruby is happiest when she’s included in family time, whether that’s snuggling or playing. We know she’ll be a loving and loyal companion for a little one.

Lifestyle

We love making memories together, whether we’re exploring somewhere new or enjoying the little moments at home. Traveling is one of our greatest joys, and it’s something we look forward to continuing as our family grows. We’ve explored many states across the country, visited beautiful islands, and have made countless magical memories taking Em to Disney over the years. One day, we hope to experience Europe as it has great meaning to us. 

Some of our favorite family moments happen in the everyday routines. When Em was younger, one of Kimberly’s greatest joys was reading bedtime stories together each night. Those quiet moments before bed created memories that will last a lifetime. We have a collection of treasured children’s books that have been lovingly saved, and we can’t wait to read them again with another child. We also love spending time together at the park, creating arts and crafts, building lego creations, putting together puzzles, and finding new ways to have fun and learn as a family.

Family and tradition are at the heart of who we are. We are both Italian, and Alex is a first-generation American, as both of his parents immigrated from Italy. We were raised with the importance of faith, family, and gathering around the dinner table. Sunday dinners were a cherished tradition in both of our homes, and it’s a tradition we continue today. Sharing recipe’s, meals, celebrating holidays, and simply being together are some of life’s greatest blessings. We look forward to passing these traditions on and creating new ones with your child, surrounding them with love, laughter, and a strong sense of belonging.

Adoption

For the past seven years, we have dreamed of growing our family. Soon after we were married, we began trying to have a baby, never imagining the difficult journey that lay ahead. After years of infertility treatments, we came to believe that God had a different path planned for us. While the road hasn’t been what we expected, it has strengthened our faith and made us even more certain that we are meant to be parents again. We hold onto hope and dream of the day we can welcome another child into our family with all the love in our hearts.

We understand that every adoption story is unique, and we are committed to honoring whatever level of openness feels right for you. Whether that includes visits, phone calls, emails, photos, or another plan, we will always respect your wishes. Above all, we want your child to grow up knowing they were deeply loved and that every decision in their adoption story was made with love, courage, and their best interests at heart.
