I've been saving up to buy a new diaper bag, but since I already have two, I'm kind of second guessing myself.
If you had $200, what would you spend it on, baby related?
-
@sslm: do you have a play kitchen yet? That's what I would spend that money on if I didn't have one yet.
-
If I didn't already have a few options a baby carrier. Probably towards a WCMT or a nicer stretch wrap (there are a few that go to 30+ lbs and not ~18+ like the Moby).
More cloth diapers
If we had a yard a playground/slide.
-
Stroller. We are looking for a Bob on sale.

My daughter is 2.5 years old, so these things come to mind since they're on my wishlist:
Learning Tower - http://www.amazon.com/Little-Partners-Learning-Tower-Natural/dp/B001ECHXVC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1375290269&sr=8-1&keywords=learning+tower
Radio Flyer Wagon - http://www.amazon.com/Radio-Flyer-Ultimate-Comfort-Wagon/dp/B008KUXKAE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1375290282&sr=8-1&keywords=flyer+wagon
Balance Bike - http://www.amazon.com/Strider-Sports-ST-3RD-ST-3-PREbike/dp/B004Q2TBAI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1375290373&sr=8-2&keywords=balance+bike

I'd buy a new umbrella stroller, a new fall jacket, winter coat + accessories, boots, and sneakers for LO. So, when do I get my $200?
-
@Mrs. High Heels: ohhh the learning tower. I covet that!
-
christmas is only 5 months away?.... i havent had my shower yet i'd probably go for one of the bigger ticket items - stroller convertible car seat, the rest of my cloth diapers
-
I would put it towards a double stroller.
-
Hmm, maybe a Montessori bookshelf, umbrella stroller, or stuff for his birthday coming up soon.
-
@sslm: Your little one is still pretty young right? If I didn't have an Ergo already - for sure that.
The items we're shopping for now/next are:
- BOB stroller
- High chair
- and wanting a soft armchair (PBK Anywhere or the Land of Nod chair) for Christmas.and we just bought a jumperoo.
-
Learning tower, anywhere chair, winter coat/boots
-
@Smurfette: we just got one used recently. It's awesome!!!
@shopaholic: yep! She's just over 3 months!
All great ideas!! Keep 'em coming
-
@shopaholic: Thread jacking, does K like the jumperoo? We got one from a friend. I haven't taken it out of the bag of stuff she gave us. But I think R is going to love it since she can stand. She is obsessed with standing.
-
a jumper and activity set for LO!
-
Haha I don't have any $ to spend and I just bought a diaper bag! We don't have one though, so it was needed - but it's not like i needed to spend $100 on it..
-
I'd get a learning tower and a double umbrella stroller.
If my baby was young I'd get a walker, a jumperoo and an outdoor baby swing
-
With baby 2 on the way we have most gear things already, but I want to buy him/her their own AA products so they don't have to share with big brother. Swaddles, a dream blanket, sheets, burpie bibs and maybe a sleep sack. That's probably already over $200!
-
I second an Ergo! We have used it a lot even into her second year. Plus it will be invaluable with baby #2.
-
Baby carrier (I'd get a woven wrap)
Learning tower
Montessori items/toys
LO's bank account
Save for clothes in bigger sizes/shoes -
I would get a learning tower or magnatiles for my 2 year old.
-
Stroller.
-
@Smurfette: @shopaholic: DS loved the jumperoo when he was little!
-
Does a new lens for my camera count? I just discovered mine was broken when I went to take some pictures of Xander.
OTHERWISE, I'd get some toys and a convertible car seat!
-
I'm in need of a double stroller and an Ergo so I'd use it towards those items. I'm much too practical to spend $200 on a diaper bag
-
I'd get a dwinguler playmat!
-
A WCMT, umbrella stroller, or anywhere chair.
-
Great ideas guys! A lot of these things I haven't even heard of so it was nice to learn something new
We already have an ergo, otherwise I'd totally get one. And my mom is sewing me a ring sling so we are pretty covered for carriers.
I think I'm going to keep saving for a while and possibly use it on winter clothes for M. We already budget for everything like that though, so I really wanted to splurge on something kind of impractical!!! It's not in my nature though... Haha.
