Here is Donna’s third and final post of her fantastic series on baby budgeting: milk. Considering how much trouble I am having breastfeeding, I won’t be lying if I were to say that I get very tempted to switch on over to formula. However, I will persevere for the time being and if I do end […]
Today Donna returns with the second post in her three-part series on baby budgeting: diapering! After briefly delving into the three types of diapering options available to parents today in America, Donna describes myriads of ways to save on disposable diapers.

Yesterday, I received some good news and some bad news. Let’s go for the good first. A few months ago, I wondered to myself why we couldn’t get a lower mortgage rate. J and I had purchased our condo at the height of the housing boom (and just before the giant dip in mortgage rates), […]
