There still seems to be something missing from your budget. I don't see much entertainment listed besides the cable tv/internet. What about haircuts? clothing? hobbies? Your monthly expenses total $4435, only about 56% of your gross income. I don't know what your take home $ is, but I'm guessing there is another >$1000/month that isn't accounted for. If you plug up those leaks, you'll be able to wipe out those debts.

We don't do any entertainment besides free entertainment, parks, swimming pool, etc. My DH cuts his own hair and I cut the kids hair, mine hasn't been cut in two years. We don't buy clothing either. The kids get new clothes for their birthdays from grandparents...and other than that, it's handme downs or given to us. Hobbies? HUM...we don't really have any hobbies that cost money.
There isn't another $1000. My Dh brings home 1200 every two weeks. Usually there is a $100-$150 cushion which usually is gone with misc things by the next time he gets paid. Again, I am working on cutting this spending out completely!!!
