we get about 5000 on our tax return... we have one daughter(so we get 1 child tax credit)who is 18 months old, and another due in may...last year we didnt need to think too hard because we spent some on her and then put a down payment on a new car.... this year....we want to put some in the savings, and have some to spend on ourselves....well my hubby wants to put 4000 away in savings and split the other 1000 up between us... 300 for him, 300 for me 200 for our daughter and 200 on the one due in may... now i want to put 3000 in the savings and split 1000 up between me, our daughter, and my hubby (a little over 300 each...)and use the other 1000 to get everything we need for the one due in may.... (cradle, swing, clothes,blankets, bouncy seat, carseat, bottles, stock up on some diapers....stuff that we need for the newborn when it gets here... we havent bought ANYTHING and im due in 4 months....)
Any ideas on how to come to a compromise, or other ideas on how we should do it....
