My Frugal Life - A New Baby
We've cut back things we absolutely don't need, like sweets and junk food. Just the essentials! I'm nursing instead of buying baby formula which has helped so much. Luckily I have enough coming in to feed her. Also, we've found a lot of baby clothes in great condition at the thrift shop, that has helped tremendously.
Our families have helped us with so many things, and we've also gotten some help through our church with other stuff. Don't be afraid to ask for help from family if you need it. Friends and neighbors are willing to help out as much as they can, too. My mom has invited us to come over for dinners when we need.
I've just felt very blessed lately, and hopefully my husband will be able to find another job soon. It's a scary economy, but keep a prayer in your heart and things work out!
