I have been on a hunt for a baby change jar for the last couple months, so we can put all our spare change into the jar to go towards IVF and not have the change all over our house and cars. Who knew that nobody makes a "Baby Fund" jars? I saw plenty of "Tattoo Fund," "Boob Job Fund," "Motorcycle Fund," "Piercing Fund," "Girls Night Out Fund," etc in the style I was looking for but I couldn't not find a "Baby Fund" for the life me! I ended up finding a website of a lady who hand paints and customizes jars. Ryan emailed the lady telling her what we wanted and she just took off with it. It turned out so stinkin cute! She did a fantastic job on it and exceeded all of my expectations!

Viva Las Vegas!


So, about two weeks ago Ryan and I were spending time together on a Friday night after I got off work and before he had to leave. Ryan was on the computer and said "Hey Babe, I feel like we both need a vaction," this was right after all our disappointing doctor appointments. I replied, " I could go for one!" He said "Where do you want to go?" We looked into St. George, Zions National Park, Denver, Moab and decided to go to Las Vegas. Ryan booked us rooms for Saturday and Sunday night. I was shocked! When we were talking about going on a vaction I was thinking in a couple of weeks. You know, so we could plan it, make arrangments for our puppy, etc! No, No, not with my spontantious husband! Thankfully, Ryan's dad and stepmom are always sweet enough to let us pawn Lucky off on them, even last minute. Our drive down there was perfect, we talked the entire way down there about everything. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect weekend together. It was just what we both needed to clear our heads and focus on us. We both are having a hard time at this whole "clearing" my system process. We both just wish we could continue on our journey and get to our end result faster, but if we are paying the big bucks for a baby we want to do everything the doctor says to a T. I am also working out a ton with a group of fabulous women, meeting with a trainer once a week and eating better. I am trying to get my body and mind ready for the next step!
