Here we go...another month has gone by.
We spent about $150 or so more than we normally do on groceries. We had a cold run through the house - first Jordan, then me and Little Man, and then my mom. It hit my mom harder than us, so I think we made it to the store a few more times then she did. We also ate out some this month...oops.
A couple of times were out of town and a couple of times were in town. The big win here though, is that none of the eating out was on breakfast sandwiches, etc. They were meals shared with family and friends.
Six months postpartum, I was desperate for clothes that weren't tights so we bought some clothes this month. Just a couple pars of jeans and a dress for me. Jordan got a sweater for work, and we got a cute outfit for Little Man.
The big budget line this month though, is under Home Maintenance. This was the bill from our recent home inspection - which was well worth the money.

I hope everyone is feeling better from their colds. I know it's much harder for me to stay on track when I don't feel well.
