life insurance

Sorry for another insurance question.

We're getting life insurance along with our home, car, and umbrella insurance. Now comes the hard part, putting a price on our lives.

Here's is what I'm figuring. Am I forgetting anything?

our salary +
price to pay off mortgage +
price to pay off student loans +
lost wages (for time off work) +
funeral expenses

I want to make it as easy on us if possible if one of us were to, well, die. If we could get all of this then whoever is left could left could live on one salary. Does this sound reasonable or am I thinking we need too much? too little?
Talk to me.

thanks.

I think you are being very reasonable with what you are figuring in. DH & I often discuss what would happen if something were to happen, and the possibilities are scarey. You can't be to careful, especially with having a little one.
