The Babymoon

What is a Babymoon? Our last trip before the arrival of Baby McGonigle.  We went to Tucson, AZ and it was perfect.  We stayed at the Omni Resort.  Our goal was to lounge by the pool the whole time and we did!  The weather was perfect.  It got warmer and warmer each day.  Our first day was about 75 and it was 95 degrees by the time we left.  And yes, it was a dry heat and I loved it. 
 
We got up early every morning and headed out to the trails for some hiking.  Don't worry - nothing too steep or strenuous.  We also headed out to San Xavier Mission and Ed got some great pictures. 
 
My birthday present while we were there was to go to Kitt Peak Observatory.  We headed out of town about 90 minutes to our nighttime tour.  We were able to get some great pictures of the telescopes and sunset.  Once the sun set we used binoculars to look at constellations and also got to play with a big telescope to check out Saturn.  
This was a birthday and a great "last" trip!

Welcome





Well, we have given in!  We have a blog!  We just wanted to be able to share with you everything that is going on with us and our family to be.  The past 6.5 months have gone by quickly and we are looking forward to July 12.  And as an introduction, here is baby girl McGonigle's room.
