I'm super competitive when it comes to...

Pool volleyball. I'm one of six siblings, and one of our summer traditions is large, competitive volleyball games in the pool. Anthony says he hates it, but I think he secretly enjoys it... :)

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you look at the night sky?

We are so small!

-Anthony

Complete the sentence, “I can’t live without……”

Books! I am a lifelong reader and English teacher. I'm always reading (or re-reading) something. One of the things I'm most looking forward to is reading with our adopted child.

-Anthony

My favorite place in the World is...

Hawaii. It's not only beautiful, but the vibe there is just so laidback. When you're there, you're on a beautiful island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. What's the rush?

My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…

We live in a quiet, residential area that includes great schools, lovely parks, and family! We are an easy drive away from New Jersey and New York City.

-Anthony

My best friend would describe me as...

Hardworking and loyal.

-Bobby

We are the best choice because…

We are an affectionate, kind, and responsible couple who has so much love to give a child. We value family, experiences, and education, and we are totally devoted to being the best dads possible!

-Anthony

If I could choose one type of food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be:

Chinese food!

-Anthony

Favorite season and why?

I love the summer. I love long days in the pool or at the beach, and my birthday and our anniversary are both in July.

-Bobby

If I could choose one type of food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be:

Mexican food, especially tacos. We make tacos at home once a week and even make mini ones for our dog. She loves them!

-Bobby

Favorite season and why?

My favorite seasons are definitely fall and spring (despite the allergies that come along with them!). I love the mild weather and the anticipation of what's coming.

Three years from now, I hope our child’s birth mom is…

Healthy, happy, and comfortable with the partnership we've created with her!

-Anthony

Do you consider yourself religious or spiritual?

I was raised Catholic, but now I identify as spiritual. I know there's something that connects us all, and I'm content to live my life honoring the beauty of life and my own personal values.

-Anthony

My best friend would describe me as...

Funny and nonjudgmental.

-Anthony

Dogs or cats?

Dogs, because they love unconditionally and are incredibly loyal, just like our pup, Maisie. :)
