No, I am not a Mommy but my wife is totally computer/internet illiterate and she has no interest in learning.
So I have taken it upon myself to do as much research as possible regarding single income families and the best ways to get by. My wife is now pregnant with our second child and she will be a stay at home Mom afterwords. Her paycheck would not cover two kids in daycare and she wanted to stay home anyway.

My Wife and I have been planning heavily for our second child since we knew it would be a MAJOR change for us. We took on another job delivering the newspaper every morning so we could pay off our outstanding bills and also so we could purchase those items that would make our lives easier or cheaper. We just resigned from the papers and our last day is August 11th which is a relief because let me tell you, it SUCKED! both of us working full time, plus getting up at 3 AM to deliver papers, plus trying to keep it together and try to play with my Son was not an easy task.

I will most likely just be a lurker but keep an eye out in the "I Made That!" forum for another post from me soon.

Mike

Welcome Mike, I think we still have two other lurker dads? not sure if they are still here. Glad to have you. I was pretty scared to do the internet thing also. Still am.
