Hi Newdad,
First, congratulations on being a new daddy! We have a 3-year old boy and a 1-year old girl ... it's an amazing experience !
For your wife's budget, I suggest you agreee with her on how much she needs for the month and give her the agreed amount the 1st of each month. That way, you don't have to worry about what she does with the money.
For the bills, try to set automatic payments. This removes a lot of work and headaches. Since I've automated all my bills, I just have to monitor the account to ensure the money is there when they are due.
