Shopping List - Getting prepared...

After reading through plenty of useful tips online, here's the final shopping list I've created for Renzo, and myself of course(nothing much to buy for myself though..).. My sister Kelly striked off a lot of items immediately from my original list to help me save more $$..

Wondering how much will it cost to raise up a child???
This is just the BEGINNING!!!



Win was not shocked at the estimated total bill of $3000+ (well, as expected..) haha.. He just commented that the $4k baby bonus paid off throughout 1.5 years from government seems to be not that helpful then... Of course we never plan to touch that $4k as we want to use that for Renzo's medical expenses (kids get sick sometimes and hospital bills can be really huge..).. So parents-to-be, be PREPARED!!!

And this list does not include the following items:
Baby pram - we got a nice one at home sponsored by Win's brother, Wilson & his wife Lucretia, they brought down the pram to our place a few days before they went back to UAE (Wilson is working there currently..), and that is the very first gift Renzo has received so far..
Avent Sterilizer Set - My sis Kelly & her hubby xiaodong are going to buy this set for us. I'm spoilt by choices when comes to such kind of items, as there are just too many different brands in the market. Luckily Kelly always knows how and where to pick the best one..
Baby furnitures(wardrobe, drawers etc) - We have not started doing any renovation or decoration for Renzo's room, so all these things can come in at a much later stage..
Baby toys - Both of us strongly believe that Renzo does not need much toys besides a ball and maybe some lego bricks. We simply hate the idea of giving too many toys to kids, and rather invest the $$ on books and flash cards, which are more educational..

Now the next thing to do, sit back and relax, wait for Great Singapore Sale before we start our shopping spree!!
