Per the US department of Agriculture, the cost of raising a child in the United States of America in the income range of our family from birth to age 17 in 2009 was $222,360.00.

This is the latest number that was published, so that is our number to beat. Let's see if we can raise a child for $111,180.00 with the help of smart shopping, educated decisions and without making any sacrifices. Our goal is to give our child a memorable childhood that's not missing any of the fun and wonderful moments that both my husband and I experienced when we grew up. Be our witness and judge our decisions along the way!

Here is the report if you want to look up what it was for your own family's income range.
