In which a baby budget is drawn up, and much teeth gnashing takes place
Wednesday, October 11, 2006
Well, last weekend we finally decided to draw up a baby budget, seeing as we will have some hitherto unknown expenses coming up in January...I had a look at the prices of baby-things, strollers, car seats and the like, and nearly fainted. So, today I was off to the big Salvos store (that's Salvation Army for people in North America) in the local 'semi-industrial' suburb of Fyshwick, where I found, amongst the old, sad sofas and old, sad 8 track players, an almost brand new stroller! For 50 bucks! Ok, so I couldn't really get it to fit in the car, and it seems to have a society of fleas living in it, but still...These things sell for $300, so it was a real bargain. Right, one thing crossed out on the list, dozens more to go...
Flees? Hopefully baby Botha won't have too much hair when s/he is born :)
