Demi "are you ready", JoJo "yeah", Demi "want me to countdown or are you gonna do the countdown", JoJo "I'll do it. Three, two, one", she counted as Demi injected her with the needle. JoJo "are you okay with staying with her while I go out for some quick errands", Demi "yes, we'll be okay, she's sleeping still so I can get in my coffee and workout going before she wakes up. And when she does wake up we are gonna walk the dogs and then come back home to have breakfast, maybe take her to the park, let her burn some energy", JoJo "okay", Demi "listen do you, and have fun. She's been asking nonstop, do you think you could bring back some crumble cookies for dessert tonight", JoJo "sure", Demi "I love you baby", JoJo "I love you too", Demi "oh wait", JoJo "yes my love", she said smiling trying to crack up because Demi always did that. Demi "she's been wanting the pretty little liars book collection", JoJo "I'll get it, I will see you when I get home", Demi "if you could leave lol", JoJo "very funny", the two of them kissed once more and then JoJo left. After Avery woke up, she did her bed and brushed her teeth, Demi made breakfast, the two of them had breakfast and watched part of a movie.

Avery "mama I can't find my crocs", Demi "did you check our room, they could be in there", Avery went back upstairs to Demi and JoJo's room, Avery "I found them mama", Demi "okay, come on, so we can get going", Avery "I'm coming", Demi and Avery left the house.

JoJo changed her hair, she's been dying to change her hair, and she finally went through with it.

@ iamjojo
Hopefully my wife doesn't see this before I get home, just ran a couple of errands and finally decided to change my hair again. I love the way it looks, now to get my daughter's reaction and my wife's reaction to my new hair.

JoJo "hey baby girl", Avery "hi mommy", JoJo "what are you and mama up to", Avery "nothing, she's just cleaning. I'm in my room", JoJo "did the two of you have lunch yet", Avery "no, mama doesn't know what to eat", JoJo "I'm on my way back home right now, ask mama if she wants something from outside", Avery "okay", Avery got off of her bed and went to her mom downstairs, Avery "mama, mommy's on the phone. What do you want from outside, she's gonna buy something from outside", Demi "tell her cava", Avery "okay, mommy she wants cava", JoJo "but what about you, what do you want for lunch", Avery "chipotle", JoJo "your usual", Avery "yes but instead of the chips from chipotle, can you get me Doritos, please", JoJo "yes honey. I am gonna get that and then I'll be on my way home", JoJo headed to get lunch and then headed back home. JoJo "babe, I'm home", Demi "oh my goodness, your hair looks so freaking good, I love it so much. Oh my goodness, I love it so much, damn you look so good", JoJo "thank you", she said smiling, Demi "baby girl lunch is here", Avery "I'm coming", Avery had finished talking to her friend on the iPad, she came downstairs, and almost dropped her iPad when she saw her mom's new hair do, JoJo "what do you think about my hair princess", Avery "it looks so pretty mommy", JoJo "thank you, come down so we can have lunch", the three of them had lunch. JoJo "so what did the two of you do while I was gone", Demi "nothing really, we just pretty much did some cleaning, and rearranged some things around the house as you can see, moved the couch, and rearranged the whole kitchen and dining area. JoJo "I love you so much", Demi "babe can we talk", JoJo "is something wrong, why did you say it like that? Can we talk", Demi "just come on", JoJo followed Demi to the room, and shut the door. Demi "I don't think this is working, us being a couple", JoJo "how could you even say that, we just got married. What the hell, where is all this shit coming from", Demi "I don't know, I just feel a lot of pressure right now, I just don't think I can do it anymore", JoJo "we just got married and we are trying to have another baby, and you ask me to talk and tell me that you no longer want to do this. How the hell do you think that makes me feel deep down inside, I risked everything I've ever had, to be a mother to my daughter, and to be with you and now you just don't wanna do it anymore", Demi "I don't know why I'm feeling this, I just don't wanna do this anymore", JoJo "if that's the case I'm done with while IVF shit and by the end of the week you need to be out of my house. And we're filing for divorce", JoJo's heart broke, she didn't understand what was going on, Avery "mommy why are you crying, is everything okay", JoJo "honey, I don't want to explain this to you right now. Maybe tomorrow, just give mommy a minute, I'm going to talk to my best friend", Avery "okay, titi Tori", JoJo "yes, how did you know", Avery "because I know", she chuckled, she left or her room, while JoJo called her best friend/sister. Tori "she did what", JoJo "I don't even know what's going on", Tori "I'm not liking this any of this, the fact that she hurt you and then we've gotta explain this to Avery too", JoJo "yeah I know and that's something I'm not even ready for", Demi "baby", JoJo "why the hell are you calling me that", Demi "this was a prank, I got dared to do it, and I apologize for the whole thing", JoJo "you have got to be kidding me, why would you do that? Are you trying to stress me out, I'm trying to carry our second child and you think that pranking me is okay", Demi "I didn't mean to do any of it, I didn't want to do it. I begged them not to make me do it and I'm on the phone with my sister and she's not too pleased", Tori "Demi really, a prank. This is not to happen again, she called me crying because she really thought that you were calling ya relationship quits, don't ever do that again please", Demi "I won't, I'm so sorry", Tori "Jo call me later, I've got tour rehearsal, I love you", JoJo "I love you more sis", she hung up the phone. JoJo "why? Did you think that what you did was funny, that really broke me. I thought that you were really calling us quits. Everything we worked so damn hard for", Demi "I know and I'm so sorry. I don't ever want to hurt you like this ever again, I love you so much, you're the best part of me, and I can't imagine my life without you. You are my world and everything I've ever dreamed of, everything I've ever wanted in a relationship", JoJo "please don't ever hurt me like that again, I really don't appreciate it. Like I really thought it was true, please don't do that to me again", Demi "I won't do it ever again, I love you baby", JoJo "I love you too", the two of them kissed.

Demi "are you ready, second to last day. And then one more day of injections and onto the next step of this whole fertility journey", JoJo "I know. I can't believe it", Demi "yeah after we go to the doctor at the end of the week we have the embryo transfer and then within a few days you can take a pregnancy test", JoJo "I know I am so excited but nervous at the same time lol", Demi "me too. What does Avery think about all this", JoJo "I mean I told her about the whole process that we're doing, so I guess little by little, not to tell her too much about it at once", Demi "okay, sounds good to me", a little while later and JoJo's mom came over. Diana "so how's the whole process going", JoJo "just a bit of an update, tomorrow is the last day of the injections, at the end of the week we go in for our appointment for the embryo transfer, and after the transfer within a few days I should be able to take a pregnancy test and we're hoping that this works, this doesn't always work out the first time but we are honestly praying that it does work for us", Diana "that's good. How did the whole funeral go", JoJo "as we thought not so well, Avery was crying the entire time and it was an open casket funeral so you could have imagined the pain she suffered having to stare at her best friend's lifeless body. She hasn't been able to sleep at all, she wakes up in the middle of the night, she hasn't been able to sleep in her room at all, she's been sleeping with us. It's just a lot, she had just gotten over it, and was slowly coping with it but then the funeral gets rescheduled and she had to deal with the pain of losing her all over again", Diana "do you want me to talk to her", JoJo "i appreciate you trying to help her but I don't think I want that to be brought up, I don't want her to relive the pain over and over again. It's already a struggle for her and I don't want that to keep happening, she's supposed to be changing schools too because she can't be in the same school because the first time we sent her back to school she lost it completely and I refuse to let that happen again", Diana "baby I know that you and Demi are doing everything in your power to help your daughter get past the whole losing her best friend, it's completely hard for your daughter and I know that", JoJo "mom I don't want to put any pressure on her, she lost her best friend mom. She's a child who lost someone and that's bad enough", Avery "mommy", JoJo "what's wrong honey, why are you crying", Avery showed her mom her phone, there was so many disgusting things being said about Lexi, and it broke Avery's heart because her friend could no longer defend herself, JoJo wrapped her arms around her daughter and hugged her and tried to get her to calm down. After Diana left, Demi and JoJo ordered dinner, Avery didn't have much of an appetite that night, so she skipped dinner and went straight to bed. Demi "babe what happened with her"? JoJo "they are people online saying so many mean things about Lexi and Avery's so heartbroken", Demi "that's fucking horrible and disgusting but people are gonna do what they wanna do", JoJo "yeah", after JoJo and Demi had dinner together. Demi "what do you want to do now", JoJo "just take a quick shower and then head to bed, I'm super tired", Demi "okay, come on then", JoJo and Demi got in the shower. Demi "I love you, I can't believe that soon enough there will be a baby in your tummy soon", JoJo "I know", Demi "I'm gonna be kissing you every single night and talking to the baby all day", JoJo "lol, I can't with you. You're hilarious but so lovable", after getting out of the shower, the two of them got dressed and ready for bed. Demi "ready to go to sleep", JoJo "yeah, I am so tired", Demi and JoJo climbed into bed, Avery "mommy, mama I can't sleep in my room", JoJo "come on, just shut the door", Avery shut the door before climbing in the bed between her parents, Avery fell asleep first, then JoJo fell asleep and Demi was the last to fall asleep.
