Our Story

We met in California and, within a year, moved to Ohio due to Spencer commissioning as an officer in the military. We’ve been together for five years and have been married for three. Alejandro is outgoing, tries to find joy in everything, and is passionate about his family. Spencer is extroverted, is structured, and cares deeply for those he loves. We are dedicated and enjoy helping others, which led us both to our careers in the medical field. We love being a military family and all the adventures it brings our way. We are lucky to have supportive and loving families who accept us for who we are. In our free time, we love getting together with our close friends and exploring new restaurants. We’re total foodies! When we’re home, we love nothing more than spending time with our two dogs, Korra and Rigby.

 Our Extended Family

Spencer comes from a big family. His dad emigrated from Guatemala to America when he was 17 years old, and his mother emigrated here from Indonesia; both overcame many adversities and have become prosperous entrepreneurs. Spencer’s dad is one of ten children and his mother one of four. His father goes back to Guatemala frequently and remains very close to his family. An annual holiday tradition they have is making tamales during Christmas. Spencer would spend two to three weeks in Guatemala every summer and still visits them frequently. Spencer has a younger brother and younger cousin, both of whom he is very close to.

Alejandro doesn’t come from a big family. His mother and father are originally from Mexico, and despite many hardships, his father became a successful business owner. He has two older brothers, each of whom have four children of their own. Alejandro is closest with his oldest brother, and despite living in different cities, we try to see each other as much as we can. He is the youngest of his siblings and is the closest to his mother. We have expressed to Alejandro’s mother and stepfather about living with us in the future. For us, having an intergenerational household is important.

 Our Home

We recently purchased our first home, a single-story, three- bedroom, mid-century charm with a tree house in the big backyard. Our neighborhood is quiet and filled with friendly and welcoming neighbors. We reside in Texas, and due to living in a military town, we are fortunate to have a close-knit community. We are a day trip away from some major cities, which are also home to some of our friends and families, whom we see often. We adopted Rigby at our first base and adopted Korra in our current city. Rigby is gentle and sweet and loves to cuddle. Korra is full of energy and takes her role as the house guard dog very seriously. Both have been around children of all ages and have been nothing but patient and loving with them.

 Our Journey to Adoption

For Spencer, adoption is nothing new. Growing up, his grandmother adopted two of his cousins, and he was able to witness the love his family had for them. Whether adopted or biological, there was no difference; at the end of the day they were family, and they were loved. We view adoption as a gift, one not to be taken for granted but one to be treasured. We have always wanted to be parents and feel adoption strongly aligns with our values.
