Living the good life on a budget.
Another month over, already! February seems to have flown by, as did January, and it doesn’t seem like it’ll be long until I’m back at work and the Frugal Baby will have new routines to learn and get used to. What has been lovely this month is that we’ve been on our first family holiday….
The first month of 2016 seems to have flown by; it doesn’t seem two minutes since it was Christmas and now it’s the end of January already! January has been relatively quiet for us in the Frugal Cottage household; nothing much as happened and we’ve just been spending quality time with the Frugal Baby. January…
December is definitely my favourite month of the year; both me and my husband have birthdays during the month and we get to spend lots of time with both our families. I also love the run up to Christmas, and all of the lights that appear throughout the streets. It is always more expensive than…
Another month over, already! November seems to have passed by in a flash, without too many hiccups along the way. It has been a more expensive month, as it tends to be as we get nearer to Christmas, but I have tried to keep to a budget. I do like buying gifts for others though!…
Is it just me who can’t believe that October is over already and we’re getting ever closer to the end of 2015? Surely it’s only three years since 1999? Where does the time go?! Anyway, back to October. I’ll be honest, I seem to have lost my way a bit this month. I suppose in…
Goodbye September! Another month gone by and we creep ever close towards another year being over. September seems to have passed by quickly, with the days blurring into each other through lack of sleep and routine. However, it has been such a special time for our little family. Our son is growing every day, developing…
We always knew that August 2015 would be a momentous month for our household; it is the month when our family grows and we become parents for the first time. The first 6 days of the month were relatively quiet and not a lot happened, but from August 7th onwards, our lives have not been…
July seems to have passed in a blur of an eye, which I suppose is both good and bad; good because we are a month closer to achieving our goals and dreams, but bad because time seems to be going faster and faster. July has seen a somewhat more expensive month in the FC household,…
Another month is over! I know I say this a lot but I cannot believe how quickly this year is passing by. As if it’s going to be July tomorrow. It is definitely true when they say that time passes more quickly the older you get; I don’t remember school years passing this quickly, far…
May is over and to be honest, I’ll be glad to see the back of it. It’s definitely been a month of ups and downs, as you’ll see from my aims for the month. Combine that with a scare with bump and it’s been a month I’d rather move on from, if I’m honest. Our spending has…
