HeidiK Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Who are Baby Ashtons parents? He is beautiful! He looks so much like Heidik's new little one Parker Or is that Parkers first name? Lindsey you look so at peace holding your Quintons hand ! It brought a smile to my face this morning. Sabrina 34392[/snapback] Hey I am with you...so confused. Ashton is so beautiful, but not Parker. Who is is Mommt? So many baby's...I can't seem to match the babies with all the mommies and daddies...Help!!! But what happy fun!

melindaandalbert Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Yeah!! Congratulations Chad and Jena. Just one more to go for the PeaBiscuit's. It's hard to believe how far our group has come in shorter than one years time! The Abrazo team is the most amazing and well organized group of women that I have ever seen.

babylong Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Way to go Chad and Jena....I am so excited for you Jena...it is your turn!!!! Enjoy the new little one and then tell us all about it when you get a chance.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marthaj Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Yes, it would help if the adoptive parents' names were also listed with the baby's name under "New arrivals." With so many orientation groups on board at the same time, it's hard for me to keep everybody straight!! Also, I'm with Sabrina and Heidi.......who are the "mystery parents" for baby Ashton??

melissamerritt Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Also, I'm with Sabrina and Heidi.......who are the "mystery parents" for baby Ashton?? 34717[/snapback] He is a cutie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With so many orientation groups on board at the same time, it's hard for me to keep everybody straight!! Also, I'm with Sabrina and Heidi.......who are the "mystery parents" for baby Ashton?? Confidentiality issues prohibit agency staff from routinely listing adoptive parent or birthparent names on the forum birth announcements or the photo gallery, unfortunately. Despite the fact that Abrazo advocates for openness, state standards still limit us (which is why clients may choose to update the "curious to know you" list but staffers do not.) So, it's up to each orientation group to help keep everybody in the know when another success story touches one of their own. (And as for Ashton, well, his parents were supposed to have been in the orientation group this weekend, but he happened first! Stay tuned for the rest of the story, which will probably appear on the forum this weekend, if his elated new parents can tear themselves away from him long enough to post it...!)

Stork Central Posted March 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 After eight years of hoping and trying and waiting to become parents, a Dallas/Ft. Worth couple happened to catch Adoption Stories on the Discovery channel, where they learned of Abrazo. A week ago, they sent in their application paperwork, hoping to attend this week's orientation, but God had other plans for them and the best possible reason for them to spend the weekend at home-- with their week-old, 8 lb., 13 oz. baby boy! Congratulations to our newest family! (Next time, come join us for orientation, first, and see what you missed, just so you know what the fuss is all about.)
