Do you see it?
Do you?
We're now over 90% towards hitting our baby fund goal. We had a big bump from our Tax Return, and from cancelling our Gym Membership (that added $600).

exciting news. You two are working so hard to make this happen.
ReplyDeleteI find it so much easier to focus on one goal at a time; otherwise, sometimes it feels like we'll never hit all these moving targets.
DeleteThings like the vacation fund, gift fund - they get spent as fast they get saved (which is the point....but still). So hitting this target will feel so good because it's fixed...once we get it, we can move on to the next thing.
Are you thinking about trying soon? Baby making is fun and so romantic!!
ReplyDeleteWe've been trying for quite a while now - but want to be ready when it happens :)
DeleteGood luck! We tried for six months with the last one and I became so discouraged every month when I wasn't. Finally, we stopped trying to time anything and just had sex 4 times a week and it worked. I know its harder for you right now with you being in separate places but it will happen when its meant to be.
