Budget updates are helpful for me to stay on track, and I also like to get inspiration from other bloggers updates. Thank you for the kind words!

It also applies to little boys too. What if they want a cabbage patch doll and not a toy dinosaur? It’s all insane. Trucks, cooking play sets, books.. all fair game to me.

It’s exhausting, isn’t it? I know it’s impossible to protect children from gender roles and stereotypes completely, but it shouldn’t be THAT difficult at three!

We’re going on a full blown 10 day trek, so I guess we need the boots, but I think they are great to have regardless.

I really do enjoy seeing them. I might tone mine down a bit but for now I’m happy with them. That was great you got the $25 back and a good point that sometimes a phone call is it all takes. Weddings do cost a fortune and even after the wedding the budgeting must go on. You have some nice funds coming in this month, well done.

Regarding The gendered toys, isn’t it insane! Every time I go shopping for the cousin’s kids I end up in a fit of rage. I also my best to get non gendered toys or not not the stereotypical ones. Any three year old can have a Tonka truck in my books!

And, YES, I have a one year old daughter and I’m not a big fan or the princess, glitter, and glamour overload. Thankfully for the most part she inherits her older brother’s toys which are more gender neutral.

Also, like you, I bought new hiking boots for our honeymoon. We didn’t do as much hiking as I thought we would, but I think we did just the right amount (so we didn’t get completely worn out hiking all the time!)
