They are both Caucasian and they decided to adopt two African American kids.

There will always be the older white woman in Wal-Mart who stared at us with sheer disgust or the African-American mother who looked at us and just shook her head,\u201d Aaron said.<\/p>\n<p>They decided not to let all that prejudice and even racism stand on the way. Soon they found out about embryos adoption and started making some research on how to start the whole adoption process.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI loved the idea of carrying the baby\/babies and experiencing pregnancy,\u201d Rachel said. And the new babies would \u201cmatch\u201d their already existing siblings, because the embryos were African American.<\/p>\n<p>It was time to pay a visit to the doctor in Honduras when they arrived they received surprising news.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtimenew.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot_668-300x218.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"218\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtimenew.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot_668-300x218.webp 300w, https:\/\/ourtimenew.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot_668.webp 463w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe began to describe everything to our doctor in Spanish (broken Spanish, that is). He asked us a few times if we were sure that we had transferred two embryos. Yes, of course we were sure, we said.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rachel and Aaron discovered that one of the embryos had split up in two inside the womb and now she was pregnant not only with twins, but triplets! They were shocked but very excited as well!<\/p>\n<p>Everything went well, fortunately, she didn\u00b4t have problems with her pregnancy and finally gave birth to three beautiful babies. The family is now even bigger and they couldn\u00b4t be happier!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been heartening to see virtually all of our friends and family express overwhelming support for our family and the unusual ways we\u2019ve built it. In our minds, we are just living out our dream. A dream that may not look like the average family, but one that we are thankful could come true in light of our country\u2019s history,\u201dsays Aaron.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Wow, Embryo Adoption Triplets Frozen 15 Years!\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nzxUyUoA-1U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\nWhat an adorable story!
