How our story BEGAN...
We were first introduced by a mutual friend, and couldn’t help but notice an instant connection It helped that we lived just half a block apart! From the very beginning, our relationship felt natural and easy, and we quickly realized we shared the same values and outlook on life We’ve been together ever since, building a life filled with love, laughter, and trust.
In 2013, we got married in a beautiful Catholic ceremony surrounded by family and friends. To this day, people still tell us it was the most fun wedding they’ve ever attended! We had gospel singers at the ceremony and an unforgettable reception full of great food, music, and dancing.
We love spending time together, whether we ’ re taking long walks on the beach with our dog, Roman; enjoying a quiet dinner; or cuddling up to watch our favorite shows. More than anything, we love being in each other’s company. Our marriage is built on deep trust, mutual respect, and a shared sense of humor and positive outlook on the world. Our love has only grown stronger over our years together, and now we are ready to share that love with a child.
We love traveling and exploring different cultures!

I fell in love with Claudia’s big heart and generous spirit. She has a charismatic warmth that draws people in. Her laugh is so full of life that you can hear it from a block away! She lifts up everyone around her with humor, grace, and compassion.

HOBBIES: Playing instruments & decorating
in claudia’s words
Brian is the kindest and most gentle person I have ever met. He has a deep appreciation for people and animals, which is why both of our dogs have always preferred him even though I do most of the work (haha)! He makes me laugh so hard my stomach hurts, and when I’m at work, I can’t wait to come home to be with him and Roman. He truly makes every day better.
Brian is also incredibly creative and can pick up any musical instrument with ease. He has a great sense of design and has decorated all of our homes beautifully. He works as an attorney, helping people, especially the elderly, and he approaches his work with the same kindness and integrity that he brings to every part of his life.
I know Brian will be an amazing father patient, fun, and completely devoted. I can’t wait to see him reading bedtime stories, playing music, and supporting our child at school events. He will always put our family first, and I know our child will feel safe, loved, and encouraged every single day.
HOLIDAY: Christmas
FOOD: Mexican Food MOVIE: Shawshank Redemption
A home of peace & bliss
Our home is near the ocean, and at night, we can sometimes hear the waves and seals. It’s a peaceful reminder of the beauty in the world and brings us a sense of calm. We live in a safe, diverse, and familyfriendly neighborhood with a great park just a block away. The schools nearby are excellent, and many kids in the area walk or ride their bikes to school
We can’t wait to decorate for holidays with a little one, to see them running around the backyard with Roman, and to cook Mexican food and bake sweets all together in the kitchen. More than anything, we want them to grow up in a warm, happy home where they feel safe and loved every day.
Our fun and traditions
We love taking long walks with Roman, traveling, and spending time by the water. Brian enjoys playing music, and Claudia loves yoga and shopping. Together, we ’ re looking forward to introducing our child to all kinds of activities whether it’s playing sports, painting, or baking cookies. We also can’t wait for family trips, from exploring different countries to visiting national parks and taking a first trip to Disney!
We love celebrating holidays, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas, when our families come together for big meals and lots of laughter. We also enjoy the simple traditions, like weekend brunch, movie nights with homemade cookies and taking Roman for his weekly treat. We look forward to creating special traditions as a family, making every moment meaningful.
FAMILY is everything
Family is at the heart of everything we do We are lucky to have a strong, loving, and supportive community of family and friends who are just as excited as we are to welcome a child into our lives. Our family is filled with warmth, laughter, and a deep commitment to being there for one another, and we know they will play a big role in the life of a child.
Claudia’s parents are incredibly loving and supportive, not only to Claudia and her brother but also to Brian. They are beyond excited to become grandparents and cannot wait to spend time with a new baby. Their home will be a second home to our child, filled with love, laughter, and delicious home-cooked meals.
Claudia’s aunt, Maria, is like a second mother to both Claudia and Brian She is one of the kindest and most selfless people you will ever meet, and has always been there for us, even helping care for our dogs. We know she will be an amazing auntie offering endless love, support, and fun activities that will nurture and inspire our little one.
Brian’s parents live just five minutes away and are overjoyed at becoming first-time grandparents. Brian’s father was adopted, which makes this journey even more meaningful to them. They will be an active and loving presence in our child's life, sharing wisdom, stories, and unconditional love. We also suspect they are secretly hoping to pass on their love for tennis!

Claudia’s brother, Arturo, and Brian’s best friend, John, are both excited to have a new little family member running around! Uncle Arturo will be so loving and caring, while Uncle John is eager to introduce them to music and comedy. Their uncles will surely fill their life with adventure and fun.
Roman is a smart, sweet, and playful dog who brings so much joy to our lives. We cannot wait to see him interact with our child greeting them with excitement, playing together, and forming an unbreakable bond. Roman loves to run and jump, and we know our child will have a blast growing up with such a loving furry companion.
