Blake & Lucy Whitehead

are adopting a child from United States of America

We have exciting news, We are ADOPTING!

From day one of discussing our future together and goals for our family, Blake was very strong in his desire to adopt. We had agreed on wanting a big family. Our hopes were to have 3-4 children and going through the process of adoption for at least 1. But as we know God’s plans are bigger and greater!

After 5.5 years of trying to conceive, a year and a half of working with fertility specialists, rounds and rounds of treatments, endless blood samples, countless ultrasounds, self administered shots, 1 miscarriage, and countless negative pregnancy tests, We knew that deep down inside it was time. That God was calling us to open our hearts and our home and share all of the love we have to give with a beautiful child through adoption.

We are so excited for this journey. We appreciate the love and support from our family, friends, coworkers and those of you, we have yet to meet.

We cant wait to share our journey to adoption with all of you. #TheGreatestAdventure #WhiteheadAdoption #OneMoreLoved

    We Are ACTIVE!!!!

    September 5, 2025

    ✨ Exciting News! ✨

    We are officially ACTIVE and now receiving birth mother situations! That means we could be matched any day now, and we are so excited! This journey has already been filled with so much hope, love, and anticipation — and now things are becoming very real!

    As we move closer to growing our family through adoption, we’re still working toward our fundraising goal. We’ve made it halfway and are incredibly grateful for the support so far. We currently have $9,315 left to raise, and every donation — big or small — helps us take one step closer to bringing our future child home.

    If you feel led to give, we would be so thankful. And if a donation isn’t possible right now, we completely understand — simply sharing this post means the world to us and helps more than you know.

    Thank you for being a part of our journey. Your love, encouragement, and support mean everything 💛

    HomeStudy Approved!

    August 19, 2025

    We’re Home Study Approved! 💛

    We’re so excited to share that we’re officially home study approved! This is a huge step forward in our adoption journey, and we’re deeply grateful for all the love, prayers, and encouragement we’ve received along the way.

    To help move forward, we’ve taken out a loan to cover a large portion of the adoption costs. But as many of you know, expenses like travel, legal fees, and extended waiting periods continue to add up. We’re currently working to raise $10,475 to help offset those ongoing costs and lighten the financial load of the loan.

    We completely understand that times are tough and not everyone is in a place to give financially—please know that your prayers, encouragement, and simply sharing in our excitement mean just as much to us.

    If you do feel led to give or share our story, we would be so grateful. Every bit of support brings us closer to the day we welcome our child home. 💛

    Adoption Consultant &Home Study Process

    May 3, 2025

    We are super excited to announce that we are officially signed with our consulting company and are working diligently to get our home study completed! 🎉🎉🎉

    This time last year we thought, oh this will all be a piece of cake, we will finish in no time… That certainly was not the case. We have learned a lot in the past year and now with great knowledge and guidance from our wonderful consultant, we know what to expect and what our goals are.

    With that being said I want to take a moment to thank all who have lifted us up in prayer, shared our posts and adoption website as well as those who have supported us financially.

    If you would like to help support us please share our adoption website with your friends and family!

    And lastly we ask for continous prayers for us, our birth mother and Baby Whitehead ♥️

    We can’t wait to update you all again very soon.
