It seems 2006 is upon us already. It should be an interesting one for our family considering the new baby coming in May (according to the doctor at least). Lisa and I have been reading various books about what to buy for the baby. One book is a stand out: Baby Bargains: Secrets to Saving 20% to 50% on Baby Furniture, Equipment, Clothes, Toys, Maternity Wear, and Much, Much More! It has been very informative, and given us a lot of good hints. Lisa had been enamored with a crib in the JC Penny catalog. I was concerned about spending $400 based on a description and a couple of pictures in a catalog. I convinced her that we should look around town again. I’m happy to report that we found a very nice crib in town. We chose not to purchase it right away — we are trying to pace our spending for the baby.
Aside from the crib, we still need to get a car seat, stroller, bedding for the crib, and a bazillion other things. Who knew that someone so small could need so much stuff?
