Pregnancy

Walmart and the Crib

July 29, 2013 By Mrs. Mom 2 Comments

As you may know, we are expecting our new baby soon. My due date is August 12th. As I was preparing for her arrival, I ordered a crib from Walmart. I really wanted to be able to go to the store and pick it up, but this particular crib had to be ordered online. So, I patiently waited.

Once it finally got to our house, I was so excited! I rushed to the door and let the delivery guy put the box inside. I asked my husband to open it, only to find that the crib was beautiful and…brown…cherry wood and not what I ordered.

That was such a disappointment. I called Walmart to let them know and here’s what happened. I got a $20 credit towards another purchase and they told me that there were no more like it in either color. I was also notified that if they sent me out another one it could not be expedited and there would be no guarantee that it would be the color that I ordered.

Can you say “disappointed again…”

I really like shopping at Walmart, but this has but a sour taste in my mouth. This is no time for mistakes. My little girls’ will be here soon and I can put her room together because its missing a crib and changing table.

Now I have to figure out something else to do.

Oh the agony and the horror…I am upset, but moving forward…thanks Walmart…

Finally: Rocking Chair & Ottoman

So, it’s no secret that this is fourth pregnancy. I am only a week and a half from having my fourth baby. Each time that I’ve been pregnant, I’ve wanted a rocking chair and ottoman. During my 3rd pregnancy, my husband brought me one and put it together. I was extremely happy until I went to sit in it only to find out that the ottoman was broken. With that, I to was broken…heart broken. I didn’t want him to buy another hair, only to get it home and have it break as well, so I opted out.

This time around my mother inlaw brought me a chair for Mother’s Day. I left it in the box because I knew we were getting ready to pcs and I didn’t want the movers to break it. Now that we have moved, my husband took it out of the box and put it together. I am so excited because I can finally rock my new baby to sleep the way I’ve dreamed. I can breast feed and read books in the chair as well. I hope my mother inlaw knows that her money was well spent as I sit here with a thankful heart…

Surprise…Things Are Changing

December 18, 2012 By Mrs. Mom 2 Comments

With all of the celebrating and the holiday festivities, we have learned that there is a lot to celebrate…

I know I’ve been super quiet, but I just couldn’t post anything. I thought I would spill the beans. Recently we found out that we are expecting our fourth baby. That’s right! I’m pregnant. SURPRISE!!!

I am super excited! I know that this next year will be full of great things and an adventure of a life time.

Since my life is changing, my blog will be as well. Being the mom of three is no longer fitting. With that, I’ll be revamping my site and trying to focus and structure things in a better way. I have so many things planned for this blog and as my life changes and we, my family, grows, I look forward to the new topics to discuss, stories to share, and opprptunities to connect.

All around, I am so excited, I can hardly contain myself.
