And The Battle Rages On....

Dear Minnow,
          Have I mentioned how much I hate Babies R'Us? Earlier this week we got a call saying that your sister's crib had come in. I was scared, and anxious, and excited, and well scared to go pick it up but your daddy and I decided to go pick it up right away. Well, of course it was Babies R'Us and they can't possibly make anything easy (I'm rolling my eyes baby girl). We waited for half an hour and when they finally rolled out our crib the box was soaking wet, covered in dirt and ripped all down the side!! We could literally see the wood of the crib hanging out! The same not so nice sales woman offered to order us a new one and take an additional 20% off for all of the trouble, which sounded pretty great to your daddy and I so I told her that would be nice and went to sit in the car and let your daddy handle the paperwork. A few minutes later he came out with paper in his hand saying that the sales woman would not infact give us the 20% off until the crib actually came in.....seeing as though we had already fully paid for the crib we still have yet to receive this sounded a bit fishy. So I went back in to find out what was going on, needless to say she was not happy to see me. Your daddy decided to cower in the car rather than come in with me, he thought it would be funnier to post on facebook that I was being arrested at Babies R'Us lol don't worry I was not actually arrested in fact I didn't even raise my voice to the incompetent sales woman. Turns out she never intended to give us our 20% back and didn't have the authority to do so, it took her manager an hour to finally find a way to credit our debit card the 20% and to reorder the crib she had ordered wrong. He was very apologetic and yet our bank has yet to receive said 20% back!!! I am so ready to just get our crib and never set foot in that store again!! We got a call a little while ago saying the new crib is in......I will believe it when I see it.
        On another note, I am finding that the 3rd trimester comes with a whole new set of worries. Your little sister has become much more active in the past few days, which means mommy freaks out when the guppy decides to take a nap for a an hour or two. I am so grateful to be pregnant again little one, I truly truly am but I have to admit that I am also tired. My body is so tired. I have been pregnant for over a year now, my body carries the weight I gained with you in addition to all the weight I have gained with your sister growing inside of me, even in the two months between loosing you and getting pregnant with your sister and her twin my body was still not my own it was trying to heal. I am in awe of pregnancy, I know that if this was a normal 9 month pregnancy and not a 14 month pregnancy I would love being pregnant. I love watching my belly grow and feeling your little sister move, in all honesty I think the constant worry I feel is what is getting me down lately. It is just so hard for me to picture this ending with a healthy, living baby in my arms. I just need to trust in God, He has a plan. He got me through loosing you and each day I live without you, I know no matter what He will get me through the days ahead. I love you little one. Please keep your sister safe.
                         Love always,
                        Mommy
