O.k., so our grocery bill is getting WAY out of hand, so Geoff & I decided to take a look at it, you know, to see if there was anywhere we could cut back. Turns out, the biggest chunk of our bill goes to the smallest member of our family-Charlie! We spend about $80 a week just to feed his 22 pound body! Isn't that crazy!?!?
$52 a week for formula. (He has to have special formula for babies who spit up frequently. Trust me-he needs it!)
$28 a week on baby food (He eats at least 6 jars of food a day, more on hungrier days..I'm not kidding)
Then roughly $20 a week for diapers for 2 kids! I'm counting down the days until Kirkland no longer needs them! And, only 5 more months until Charlie is off of formula!! Woo hoo!

$52 a WEEK??? We would have to eat Kraft mac n cheese every night if we had to pay for that!
almost as shocking as the 22 lb 7 month old. I think he might pass Brock before his first birthday!! Love it.
Jessica-- I am going to email you some info on cheaper diapers. Of course, I found them at the tail end of having a little one that still uses them...but you may be able to benefit.
Shoot me your email Jessica. gundersonsc@gmail.com
Hey Jessica, just checking out your blog! You are such a wonderful mom- just knew you would be!! I was wondering if you had checked out Shannon's blog??? It's amazing what she's doing. She's only spending $110/month on groceries for her fam of 4. Here's the address if you're interested in starting your couponing (like I am...) http://www.bargainbuggyblog.com/
ok, nevermind- just saw her posts!
