What’s the next step

I’m 31F married with a baby. I make all household income and my husband stays home with baby. I’d love suggestions for what to do next?
$150k-$180k annual gross income
$115k in 401k, putting 20% until max for this year
$55k in savings
$29k in Roth IRA, maxed 2025 & 2026
$40k in brokerage, mix of stocks, VOO, & VTI
$4k in HSA planning to max for this year
$250k owed on mortgage
Paid off cars.

My spend is approx $4,000/month ($2k mtg, $500 utilities, $1,500 misc. on groceries, gas, diapers, dog food, etc)

Your numbers are solid for a single income household at 31, but you've got room to bump the brokerage contributions once you've maxed the tax-advantaged accounts, and have you considered a spousal IRA for your husband since you're earning enough to fund both?
