Kristi Houghtalen

is adopting a child from China

Exciting things are happening in the Houghtalen household…

We are adopting a sweet little man from China! We have decided to name him Theo Robert. Our little guy has Down syndrome and just turned 1 in July. Our hope is to have him home well before his second birthday!

Kyah and Karis are thrilled to be big sisters, while Jesse and I and are doing everything we can to be prepared to welcome this beautiful new life into our home. As part of our adoption process, we have started a fundraising campaign. It may surprise you to hear that international adoption is pricey! Adoption related costs can easily total up to $35,000 or more.

They say it takes a village to raise a child.. so our hope is that by inviting you into this process, you will see yourself as a part of the village we hope to build around Theo as he grows up. Join us on this journey! #TheosJourney
