Hi, we’re Hannah & Eric from Texas! Hannah is a high school dance teacher, Eric is a data analyst, and we have been together for 7 years. We are an energetic and fun-loving couple who are ready to be hands-on parents. We look forward to raising our child with the love & support of both of our families, as well as making lasting memories through travel, play, and faith.

It has always been our plan to form our family through adoption -- in fact, Hannah has wanted to adopt since she was 14 years old! We want to support you in whatever way you feel comfortable, whether that be more hands on or hands off. We will always share this special connection and want you to feel respected and cared for as we go through this journey together.

About Us

We were set up on a blind date while we worked at Walt Disney World. We had so much in common, from our love of Marvel movies to growing up in the same town! We’ve been together for 7 years and married for 3. Our plan has always been to adopt -- we have never thought of another way to build our family!

Together, we like to:


  • Eat--we love trying new restaurants, cooking together, and reviewing our latest meals

  • Travel--anything Disney, relaxing at the beach, or visiting out of state/country relatives

  • Exercise--we love physical activities, such as walking or riding bikesWe are looking forward to all elements of parenthood! Eric can’t wait for baby giggles & snuggles, while Hannah is excited for bubble baths and bedtime stories.

About Hannah

Hannah is kind, caring, funny, and hardworking. As a dance teacher, she loves to work with children, and the best part about her job is getting to see her students shine on stage -- seeing them have the confidence to perform makes it all worth it!

Some of her interests include:


  • Baking, especially large cakes for events--even a few wedding cakes!

  • Reading--she’ll read just about anything

  • Crafting--she often has a project going on her sewing machineHannah is excited to share many things with her child(ren), including:

  • Travel--the beach is one of her favorite places on earth!

  • Education--she loves to learn and wants to share it with everyone

  • Faith--a relationship with the Lord will be the most precious thing she can share with a child

About Eric

Eric is funny, lighthearted, genuine, and is usually called a “gentle giant”. Eric works as a Sales Operations Analyst, which is a fancy way of saying he works on spreadsheets all day.

Eric’s interests include:


  • Reading Sci-Fi & Fantasy Novels

  • Following Major League Baseball--the sport in general, but he roots for the Astros and Blue Jays

  • Grilling--he’s mastered steak kabobs and loves trying new recipesEric is excited to:

  • Support and get involved in his child’s interests (he may be crossing his fingers to coach tee-ball)

  • Help his child(ren) grow in their faith

  • Share some of his favorite travel destinations with his child--Disney or the beach!

Our Family

Our families are both so excited for this adoption journey!

Hannah’s family consists of:


  • 3 brothers, all married

  • Mom & Dad--Hannah’s mom was actually adopted herself, so this is extra special for her!Part of her family lives close by, while the others are spread out in & outside of the country. Eric’s family consists of:

  • 1 married sister

  • Mom & Dad

  • 2 niecesThey all live within 45 minutes of us. We try to get together with both of our families as often as possible. We’re so excited for them to share special family traditions with our child, such as Secret Santa, yearly Disney trips, and lively rounds of Uno.

Our Home in Texas

Our home is in the suburbs of central Texas. It's a two-story craftsman with a fenced in backyard and cozy patio, complete with a grill and fire pit -- perfect for roasting hotdogs & making s'mores. Our house is directly across the street from our neighborhood park, and we often see families in the neighborhood gathering there.

We have an elementary and middle school located in our neighborhood as well, both roughly a 10-minute walk away. Our home has 4 bedrooms, and we already have one set aside as the baby's room! It connects to a large secondary living room, which will be perfect for playtime, movies, or building forts. We have to say, we truly love our home -- it's a little big for us now, but it's the perfect size for a growing family!

Our Promise

To you, our prospective birth mother, we promise this:


  • To love your child whole-heartedly & unconditionally

  • To give your child the brightest future--from being involved with schoolwork to having firm yet fair rules at home, your child will be set up to succeed through their whole life

  • To have fun--we cannot wait to hear your child’s first giggle!

  • To never stop learning--about adoption, about your child’s culture, and about what it means to be a family

  • And finally, to honor you--we are open to creating a connection that works for you, your child, and us. A connection that will let your child know that at the end of the day, all of this was done for them.We’d love to talk or answer any of your questions. Please call or text Lifetime at 1.800.923.6784.

More About Our Family

Our Childcare Plans

While we both currently work, Hannah will be retiring from teaching dance to be a full-time stay-at-home mom once the baby arrives. Eric also has a flexible work from home schedule, and will be able to be more involved with daytime activities on Mondays and Fridays. On occasions when we do need childcare, we have multiple close family members in the area who have already offered to come by and babysit.

Weekends With Us

We like to take our weekends to rest & prepare for the coming week ahead!

-Friday: Our weekends usually start out with us both coming home from work a bit early, visiting a restaurant and then a long walk around our neighborhood -- we try to go on one every night!

-Saturday: We like to sleep in and cook a big breakfast together! After that, we might lounge around the house, run errands, shop, or meet up with friends/family. We usually finish our Saturdays the same way we end our Fridays, and if there’s time left, we might read or occasionally watch a movie or some TV.

-Sunday: We attend church every week, followed by Eric doing yardwork, Hannah cleaning the house, and often ending with Eric grilling for dinner.

Our Bucket List

The top 3 items on our joint Bucket List are:
1. Becoming parents!!
2. Traveling Europe, especially the Mediterranean (Greece, Italy, etc.)
3. Visiting all 30 Major League Baseball Stadiums, and exploring the cities they’re located in

Things We Admire in Each Other

What Hannah admires in Eric:
- Good Humor -- Eric is one of the funniest people you’ll meet and always keeps situations light with a well-timed joke or jab, often at himself.
- Willingness to Always Have Fun -- He’s always ready to join in the fun, whether it’s going with the flow on vacation or being dressed up as a princess by our nieces.
- Attention to Detail -- This keeps our lives on track. He has a spreadsheet for everything, from finances to travel, and updates them regularly to make sure he is providing for us and keeping us safe.

What Eric admires most about Hannah:
- A Natural with Kids -- Kids seemingly gravitate toward her, and she quickly becomes their favorite person. It’s a common joke on my side of the family that we all disappear in our nieces’ eyes as soon as Aunt Hannah arrives!
- The Ability to Stand Firm -- She will not give an inch if something conflicts with her values, and is not afraid to stand up for what she believes in.
- Organization -- She's super organized and has great attention to detail in everything, from home decor to event planning.

In Closing

Thanks for checking out our family! Adoption is something we have always dreamed about, and it’s our first choice for how to create our family. A child would be so loved by us and our extended families -- we have been praying over this placement for years! We get such excitement thinking about every aspect of their lives, big and small.

We promise to give your child the life they deserve, filled with love, safety, support, and fun! We also promise to honor you, as their birth parent. We are committed to maintaining the level of relationship that you are comfortable with, whether that be photos and letters, occasional visits, or a loving departure from one another, knowing we will forever share something so special.
