The financial needs of a family are different than when you were single and planning only for yourself. You will now have additional expenses like diapers, and as your family grows fees for daycare and extra curricular activities. Creating a budget for the family can help give you insight into your spending so you can make any need changes. To help we have some tips to make it easier to create: ✅Start with adding up all your sources of income. ✅Next, sort your expenses into "must haves" and "nice to haves". ✅If your expenses outweigh your income, start looking at cutting back your "nice to haves". ✅Track your expenses and income as they come in.
