What in the world to do?

Well, we have five girls and a very tight budget. I have got to figure out how to live and hopefully make life enjoyable and rich for my family while playing the money game.
I figure there are probably plenty of other domestic engineers out there that might give me ideas and/or benefit from my ideas and what I am learning along the way.
My daughters are from two different age perspectives. My oldest is a teenager (God help me). My next one is a young child now. Her twins sisters are considered toddlers and then the baby is well, a baby. This means I have to incorporate makeup and diapers into the budget. One wants to look good and the others need to have dry bottoms.
The fact that they are all girls presents another problem. Girls can be very expensive. What will I do when they all want to be in ballet lessions at the same time? We will have to find a way. So, here begins the journal of my girls on a budget journey. Wish us luck!!
