Alex and Jenny

We're looking to adopt a baby

Hello! Our names are Alex and Jenny. Thank you for taking the time to read our profile!

We worked together for several years before we started dating. One night, we were at a mutual friend’s birthday party, and Alex revealed that he didn’t know any constellations. Jenny grabbed his arm and led him out into the backyard to point out the ones she knew. He leaned in and kissed her, and the rest is history. We have been together since 2010 and were married in May 2014. We have an easy relationship. Both of us are pretty laid-back, and we communicate well even when life is difficult.

We live near Kansas City, MO, with our two dogs, Scout and Tsunami. In 2015, we started trying to get pregnant. In the time since, we have experienced several heartbreaking losses. Being parents is a dream and we know that family is not defined by genetics. Our focus has shifted to welcoming a child into our family through adoption. We would love to have an open adoption where a child is surrounded by all the people who love them.
