We're spending half on DH's new car. Well, I guess that's still saving since we're replenishing the money we took out of savings. Anyway, the other half is going into the baby fund.

I don't know. We're expecting to actually get money for once because we bought a condo and had a baby in 2009, but I don't know what we'll do it. Probably save it.
I think I am going to convince dh to get a smallish flat screen TV for our bedroom. We only have one TV right now and that has always worked, but now since he got a PS3 for Christmas we both tend to want the TV more at the same times.
The problems is convincing dh to get a smallish tv and not a huge monstrosity.
This of course is assuming we get a decent tax return. From the internet calculators and my guesstimation, I think we will. But I will believe it when I see it.
I'm getting a new laptop since my current on is 7 years old. And saving the rest.

We will put a ton in savings (we're getting our 1st time homebuyers tax credit), spend a chunk on landscaping the back yard, and possibly have a little play money (I'd like to purchase a portable massage chair, for instance).
We take it in the ass at tax time so no fun spending for us.
Fuuck TTC - I'm moving on.

Spending about $500 on baby nonsense.
The rest shall be saved.

I'm not sure what we'll get, but if it's $1,000 + then...
**Hopefully, buy a nice grill (ours sucks)
&
**Put the rest in my National K9 savings fund.
It's possible we forget the grill and just put it all in my savings fund. :sigh:
