I did IT !!!


What is it!!!. It is what I have always said I would never do. I would never stand in line for any toy for my child. Never go over the top looking for a toy and that was the "hot" toy for the year. But this year I did it. Not for Madison who would know if she got it or not but for JACK, yes 10 month old Jack who could care less. I was in the toy store with both kids one day trying to buy toys and hide Madisons since she was with me, when 3 different people asked me if I knew where this zebra toy was. I, at the time, did not even know what the zebra toy was. Then I found out that the zebra toy is the Fisher Price Baby Gymnastics Bounce and Spin Zebra. The hottest toy of the season for babies. I saw it in the store that day and thought it was cute, but I did not buy it. Big MISTAKE...because when I went back to get it the toy was sold out. But I had already caught the zebra fever so I had to get it. I searched every toys r us, target, walmart and every other store I thought might sell toys in Spartanburg, Hendersonville and Asheville. I even saw the toys r us truck going to the toys r us store late one night when I was coming home from the mall and I got up and went back to the store the next morning try to get the toy, but none were on the truck. So I ended up ordering it online and of course paying to much to get it here by 12/22. But it came bright and early yesterday morning. And even though it seems silly, I feel a sense of accomplishment for getting my baby the Fisher Price Baby Gymnastics Bounce and Spin Zebra (sad I know). Now Santa is officially through at our house.

It's about the hunt....not about the toy. Did he like the box more than the toy?
