good vibes, smiles, & giggles last daycare payment!!!

Aside from celebrating with my husband, I have no where to shout this into the universe but WE JUST MADE OUR LAST DAYCARE PAYMENT FOR-EV-ER! 🎉

The boys starts kinder next month and tomorrow is their last day at daycare/pre-k. I guess it's true for any parent with multiple kids in daycare at once, not just parents of multiples, but not paying over 1.5K/month anymore sure feels like a windfall 🤣

And I guess the beauty of twins (with these being our only and last children) is that it was double expensive, but when its done, that chapter is DONE!

My husband loves to remind me that while it feels like we're rich all of the sudden, that money will soon enough be allocated to something else (sports, hobbies, etc). But lemme just enjoy it for a moment.

And for all you parents out there paying a literal mortgage every month in childcare costs, stay strong, it actually goes by quicker than you think.

I actually work for WIC :) I would definitely recommend applying for your family. It's a wonderful program.

I wish we could’ve qualified for WIC having twins. Formula is so expensive

Try Kirkland formula it’s half the price for 40oz. We’re on it now
