Good luck at staying under budget.
Especially with a preggo wife (congrats btw). Most parents lose their mind over that first kid. The amount of money we spent that first 2 years was obscene. I never like to buy new cars and somehow bought my wife a brand new Lexus for "safety". Your kids will destroy it all in the first few years so be smart if you can. But it can be hard.
Well we actually have a pretty nice place right now. 2b/2ba 1700sqft with off street parking. We don't NEED to move. It's just not in as nice a location and the layout isn't as ideal for having a nursery. So we're in a good spot to be picky. Also, screw cars man I wish I never had to drive again. Right now I'm trying to talk my wife down from one of them giant ass strollers into just sticking with a small one. No one wants to deal with a giant ass stroller in the city.
