What's your biggest baby splurge?

What is the one thing you've decided to pony-up and buy, despite the cost?? I know a splurge for one person isn't the same as a splurge for another, but what thing are you getting/already got that you just had to have?

Re: What's your biggest baby splurge?
Definitely the travel system stroller. It will be the biggest splurge.
I have two big splurges. I feel bad even talking about them as splurges, because I don't think I'll be paying for them myself because my family members are so generous, especially since I'm an law student soon to be graduate in debt up to my ears and recently unemployed! That being said my big ticket items are beautiful white piqu? bedding set (sheet, blanket, bumper, skirt) for my MINI crib, which is about $150. And my phil & teds sport buggy stroller, $450.
btw, I haven't purchased/received a thing yet, my baby shower is Oct 24 and I dont anticipate getting anything before then
My Bugaboo Chameleon stroller....
and my nursery furniture
Construction for the nursery. Having a hallway and door built to enclose my office to become a proper nursery. I am also having the contractor put up wainscotting in the nursery, which I guess is more of a splurge since it really is extra. I haven't received the quote yet, but I'm not hopeful of it being budget friendly. :-)
The nursery furniture is our biggest splurge. We were going to just match other cheaper furniture to our crib, but we finally broke down and bought all the matching furniture online last night.
Me too, a Bugaboo Chameleon, there's just no talking me out of it. The question is only what colors...
Probably the glider and ottoman which will come to about $700 total. We've been so blessed that family has bought so many of our big items (stroller, car seat, furniture, bedding).
I want one so bad! I've been on the hunt on Craigslist!! BTW - do they all have carrier attachements????
Definitely the nursery furniture. My parents are paying for the crib, but we are responsible for the rest. We also bought the travel system and bedding for the crib, but my grandmother is going to be giving us the money for the crib bedding :-)
My parents bought the furniture and our travel system, and DH's parents bought us our Lazy Boy recliner. We are very lucky.
The bedding/room decor has been the biggest purchase so far for the baby, for me it was True Religion Maternity Jeans. LOVE.
Bugaboo Cameleon and Bratt Decor nursery set and cradle.
I LOVE my Cameleon already!
Either the new car we got - we both had 2 door cars before. So we upgraded to an suv.
Or the Baby Jogger Elite stroller.
