Since we had the twins.....

Since i've quit working to take care of the twins, there was a lot of adjustments we had to do as a family and one of it was how much money we could save. Of course this time it was different, compared to when we had Iris, our firstborn. We spent on her like there's no tomorrow...maklumla, first child and we were overexcited to become parents.

But now, with the 2 new additions and us living on a single income, all that is distant memories. We hardly buy any clothes for the twins, except some boy clothes for AY and some new sleepsuits for them. No carseats cause we had 3 from Iris's. We only bought the twin stroller and a few small items like towels, bottles etc.

And one other major difference this time around is we decided to use cloth diapers. I used to toy with the idea when we had Iris, but i was too lazy to commit to the washing etc. But now, do i have a choice? Anything, as long as it means us saving some $$, i'll do it....

So far ok...the washing is not so bad. We still buy disposables, but just for when we are travelling, emergency etc. But still, we have saved a lot. Masa time beli tu memang la rasa pening jugak cause kena bayar banyak sekali gus, tapi bila kira kira balik, memang worth it and jimat.

My "little" collection...
Of course, there's the breastfeeding too, but that one, as everyone know, is still WIP....hummmph!
