Dear Family & Friends of Kristine & Jimmy Baglini,
As some of you know, Kristine & Jimmy have recently embarked on the adoption journey. They have been incredibly patient over the last 12 years, and deciding to adopt has not come easy. We couldn't think of two people more ready to love a child and give them a wonderful life. While we're all excited and happy for them to step into their roles as mom & dad, the adoption process is harder and more complicated than we ever realized. There will be many more difficult decisions along the way before they are matched with a birth mom and baby. Not to mention all the legal hurdles and the significant financial burden they will incur to bring the baby home.
Kristine & Jimmy have given so much love to all their nieces and nephews, not to mention constantly spoiling them with all their needs and wants. Now, it's our turn to lift up the Baglinis with all the love and support they've poured out into the world. We would love it if you joined us in supporting the Baglinis so they can continue to push through this challenging process of becoming a family of their own.
To give you an idea, here are examples of expenses they will have:
$25K-$30K Adoption Fee PLUS
Home Study Fees
Birth Parent Living Expenses
Uncovered Medical Expenses
Potential NICU Stay
Temporary Housing or Hotel while Baby is still in the hospital (if not in Phoenix)
Adoption Finalization Fees
More Legal fees
This list honestly goes on and on...
Essential Baby items they will need from Day 1
Crib
Car Seat
Stroller
Clothing
Bottles
Formula
etc, etc, etc...
Thank you for taking the time to read about their journey. No donation amount is too small, and I know Kristine & Jimmy will be eternally grateful for our support in any form. We will continue to use this GoFundMe platform to update you along their path to baby!
Deepest gratitude,
Brandon & Casi Reichardt (brother & sister-in-law)
