And So It Begins. . .

We've talked about it forever.  Before engagements and weddings.  Before Mission Valley and Boston.  We've always wanted a family.  Today marks the first big step to that becoming a reality.  We've taken the time and we've done our homework.  From the pie in the sky dream of "at home" to driving to Pasadena, the plans have definitely undergone change.  Now, with the guidance and help of an incredible doctor, we take a deep breath and one step at a time on a journey that we can't wait for. . . 


Today was so simple and yet so much more.  A blood test... An ultrasound... Nothing to write home about on a normal day but this was anything but normal.  It's step one.  It's step one on this grand adventure that recently has felt so far away, so difficult to achieve, and yet things seem to fall into place.  Next step, next week.  All on our way to making our dreams come true however long that takes.  However many tries.  However much it costs.  This is what our dreams are made of.  


We're The McGuires.  We always figure it out and have a hilarious time doing it... 


Here's to step one.  Welcome to our journey.
