So I bought:

Abbie's prom dress for end of this month
Kalebs cot brand new
Xanders custom made lego light as he's having a lego room
A couple of bibs six baby bottles and a baby brush and we still have about £15 left in the PayPal account so quite chuffed with the amount we got for our money xx

Morning peeps :wave:

Well today will be a spendy day as I've just sent £50 towards argos card as buying kids new trampoline on Thursday whilst its in the sale at half price and we get three months interest free. I only have one more payment on my Hoover but my 0% deal doesn't run out til end of July so we are still being good with card by ensuring we pay no interest on it lol xx

Ordered a Father's Day card of OH customised it with three pics f kids including a 4d scan pic of our baby boy so that was £3.59 which isn't bad at all xx

Spent 70p on paper and packet of crisps but also need to pay for xanders swimming lessons today as its due today so that's another £41 away lol oh the joys of children xx

Got midwifes appointment today feel so uncomfortable it's unreal xx

Hope everyone is well xx

Need to pay for the shower today but I've put the money aside for that so that £382 gone but we have the money so we won't get into debt for it xx

My lovely hubby to be boxed in the awful pipes that were exposed in the bathroom and we didn't need a trip to any DIY stores :j he used spare laminate flooring we had left over but couldn't return as packet needed to be open and bits of wood that we found in she'd its amazing what you can find when you are strapped for cash hehehe

So that just needs to be sealed and painted and that's another check off his to do list xx
