Baby's First Gift!

I think Momma is more excited about this one than the baby will ever be, but for good reason. I've been hunting down this stroller and giving it googly eyes since Jaime first told me about it ah, over a year ago! I liked to look into things and shortly after my stroller research, I came to the conclusion that this stroller IS literally one of the best out there. I continued to windowshop and got my hopes up once I saw the price tag. I pretty much imagined that NOBODY in my family was going to justify paying $800 for a stroller, no matter how badly I wanted it. I already had my rebuttal planned "Goodness, give me some credit...at least it isn't a Bugaboo, I'm not going after the 'name'!"

Now that I'm actually pregnant, I began to research it weekly, looking for stores that carried it and pricing it out. Well, in December it went down to $599. Major price cut in my opinion! I was extremely excited that I may be able to purchase this myself and not feel bad about it. Come Jan 1st or so, on my weekly research update I noticed that one store, and only one, reduced it to $419! I flew off my seat and was determined to buy it at the end of the month.

After telling my Mom about the stroller and the whole price ordeal, I showed her the color I was interested in etc. because I was in fact buying this stroller. LOL Fast forward to last night, on the phone with my Mom and I check on it....the color I want is SOLD OUT. I almost died. They only had one other color left and limited quantities of that to-boot. I liked the last color choice, but it wasn't my first pick. I realized that I wasn't about to pay $180 more just for a color. As a surprise, my Mom said "Buy it, and tell the baby Happy Baby Shower!" I was over the moon! THANK YOU MOM! The baby officially has a stroller! The stroller Momma wanted from day 1, and regardless of checkers, I love it! :) I can't wait for our I'Coo Targo to arrive in about a week.
