Organics where we live are often 2-3 times as expensive, which is too much of a difference in my opinion. When the sales make the prices comparable, I will buy organic… but that doesn’t happen too often.

In my area, most organic foods are basically just about equal the price of conventional, and in rare cases can be less! Like bananas.

Good point, Steve. We plan on asking friends and relatives to limit the toys – we don’t have a ton of room in our house for too many of those!

Baby Showers are pretty good as long as the toys are in check. After 14 months we have toys everywhere.

Thanks for the advice, DDFD. We’ve got a bit of everything on there for now. We’re actually considering going with cloth diapers, and using disposable to augment those (basically, when it is more convenient).

I’ll mention this to my wife.

Thanks for the mention Patrick! Now just trying to convince my wife who insists on buying everything Organic.

Patrick make sure you ask for consumables (diapers, food) on the registry– those are the costs that eat you alive.

Great list of links!
