We go to Costco about every 8-10 days. The great thing about Costco (aside from the fact that everything comes super sized...like our family) is that the carts fit two kids in the seat up front. This means we can all go together! With the kids consuming more and more food, it has become necessary for us to buy certain items in bulk. We have even started buying diapers there, and they are as good (if not better) than the Pampers we were buying.
The other night we went and ate dinner at Costco, they have a limited menu and no high chairs. So we had pizza and ice cream (I know, I know). The triplets did AWESOME sitting at the table like big kids. This picture cracks me up!
A few fun facts:
- A pack of 137 Costco diapers is gone in 9 days or less.
- A large Costco container of blueberries lasts on average 2.5 days.
- A bunch of 6 bananas will last 2 days.
- A Costco bag of Mickey nuggets lasts about 2 weeks (obviously we don't eat these every day).
- The triplets go through about a can of veggies every day and a half.
- Between Kelly and me, we do on average 6 loads of laundry every week (4 of which are almost exclusively for the kids).
- We spend around $250-$300/week at the grocery store or Costco. That includes diapers, food, toiletries etc.
- One thing I would like to report is that we JUST bought our first container of baby wash and lotion. We got so much of it as gifts before the kids were born that we have gone almost 2 YEARS without having to buy it! We are so blessed with the generosity of friends and family.
