We met at the gym where we both attended the same exercise class. Katy knew Kelly was a dentist and when her dog ate her retainer, Katy asked him after class if he could help make her a new one because her dentist was out of town. (That’s right…the old “my dog ate my retainer” trick!) And it worked! ? Katy got her new retainer and Kelly asked Katy on a date. And the rest, they say…is history! Almost a decade later, we are celebrating 7 years of marriage and growing our family!
Katy works part time as an academic advisor for a local college, and is able to spend lots of time at home with a new little one. She loves gardening, playing pickleball, trying new restaurants & recipes, and volunteering. Katy describes herself as empathetic, warm, fun, resilient. Katy loves being a mom and watching children grow, change and become who they are while loving and laughing with them along the way.
Kelly is a dentist and owns his own practice, which allows him to work 3 days a week and be at home with my family. Kelly loves learning, biking, baseball & snowboarding. He describes himself as practical and adventurous. Kelly loves being a dad and interacting in different ways with children as they grow and sharing experiences with them.
Katy said “Kelly’s calm demeanor, kind heart, and willingness for adventure make him a great dad and husband.”
Kelly said “Katy is smart and curious. With her warm and welcoming manner she draws people in whether they are dear friends or complete strangers. She is amazing at helping children grow and navigate the world.”

Kelly's parents, Tom and Andrea live in his childhood home, just 2 hours away. We frequently travel with them around the country and see them every month or so for birthdays, sporting events, and holidays. Kelly has two brothers and they all grew up playing wiffleball in the backyard, so they are excited to play ball with our kids, too!

Our home is bright and spacious, and we are preparing one of our extra rooms as a nursery. All of the bedrooms are on the same floor, so we're close by the kids. We have a private tranquil backyard and we are fortunate to have great neighbors with kids, as well. We live on a quiet street and are within walking distance of our elementary school, restaurants, and bike trails.
We live in a diverse and growing suburb of a metropolitan area and have all the amenities we want and need. We are also fortunate to know adoptive families in our community that have been a great support for us.
