This past weekend, we were on a mission to find a crib. Meghan had done some internet searches and found a crib we really liked. It was designed by Amy Coe, and it was sold exclusively at Babies ‘R Us, and it was out of stock online.
And after further review, it was discontinued, as well.
So we went to the Mayfield Hts. Babies ‘R Us hoping to find a floor model, or something in stock.
No luck.
So we made one last attempt, and drove out to the Bainbridge store (there are only 3-4 Babies ‘R Us stores in all of Cleveland). They had a nice little display of an Amy Coe crib and combo changing table and dresser. It wasn’t the crib we were looking for, but it was a similar design, and it was by the same designer.
We find some help, and begin the process of purchasing.
That’s when we are told the crib is no longer available, but we can have the floor model.
I look at Meghan, and she says, “no one has chewed on it, pee’d on it, or poo’d on it, so that’s fine be me. At least I am assuming.” To which our helper did not laugh, but actually calmly answered, “no, it has not been used.”
And of course the combo unit had to be ordered.
So in 7-14 days, Baby Boy Andrikanich will have his first pieces of furniture.
