The teenager is STILL out of school due to the snow. But the main roads are fine, so we ventured out to Ikea today. We went mainly to get the ubiquitous RASKOG utility cart for the Teen’s bedroom. I also wanted more baby bowls and spoons. Since Babystar is eating now, I am using the plastic bowls and spoons that I kept on hand for when my niece and/or nephew visit. They work just fine but I was down to three spoons and she often uses two per meal. (One for me and one for her. Or two for her. Depends on her mood.) I ended up with a few more things than I planned but the Baby portion of the afternoon still only totaled $36.89. Not bad.

RAISING BABYSTAR:  $5,778.74
