@shaunkeith Yes we do. Though my husband buys too many snacks for the kids too.

@shaunkeith My husband buys them Chewy dips. I prefer to make my own granola bars.

@puddingtader Our biggest expense is food. We buy in bulk (if it happens to be the cheaper option (it isn't always) and we buy our beef from a family member who owns a beef and Buffalo farm... they started raising pigs last year so we'll be able to start buying pork from them too. We buy at a...

@daisy83 I exclusively breastfeed so there really isn't anything for him to do to help.. unless baby has a blowout and I need help cleaning it up (bedding and such).

@alex_t We have 5 (12, 10, 6, 2, and 10m) and are planning on having more (trying now for #6) I am a stay-at-home mom, however. We struggle with the same things you do. It is not easy and I find myself stretched thin but we make it work. I heavily rely on my older kids to help out around the...

@zondaar39 Lots of nagging lol. Also, consequences. You can try a natural consequence one day so they can see why it's an important chore. (You didn't do the dishes, so now you don't have a clean cup, etc.) Also, the things they love to do, aren't allowed until after their chores are done. They...

@cbaker06021984 The 10 and 8 year olds are absolutely old enough to start doing chores.. including their own laundry (with your guidance and supervision the first dozen times.) Look up age appropriate chores and you’ll see they can do way more than you’d think! I don’t know how you feel about...
