My last day of work was yesterday yipeee!!  I SAH with DD until she was 7 months old, then went back to work for 2 months and quit!  I am excited/nervous/relieved.  Nervous about our finances now as we are a one income family and it's going to be hard at first but I feel like I'm definitely doing what's best for DD.  I don't plan on going back to work until my kids are in school and we want 2 more so it's going to be a long time!

Congratulations!!  Living on one income isn't hard if you maintain a budget.  Try to lower all of your insurance bills(house, car) for example since you won't be driving to work you can change yourself to a recreation driver on the cars.  That will save you some money on the premiums.  Lower cell phone plans, cable plans..etc.  Good luck and anything is possible if you truly want it.
