Yep, i opened it on another page, and going to start reading it here shortly.
My parents always did a money thing for us growing up also...They would say how much we had, then if we were bad, we got some taken away and if we were extra good, we might get something that we wanted, but did not come off the amount that we could spend on whatever we wanted.
I think I am going to do a gift card for our kids when they are here, and older, then if they want more than the card says, they have to spend there own money...but more than likely i will be a sucker and buy them more than i say...especially when the grandparents come along..they are going to buy them a ton of stuff.
My parents brought back over 200 dollars worth for my nephew last year...I can not wait to see what they get him when they all go together next summer...but at least our baby will be here then, and we can get all that stuff for it when it is born.
