The Saga of the Playmat

This story starts a few weeks ago with Mommy in a de-cluttering frenzy. Things were de-cluttered, including an infant gym that Willow had (via a yard sale for $5). Mommy was not fond of this play gym, and thought "hey, if Rose ever wants to use one, it should be easy to find another one when the time comes."

HAHAHAHAHA

Apparently, infant gyms (or playmats as Mommy calls them) are made of GOLD, and thus very expensive to buy, and even pricier to ship.

Mommy was sad. She even went back to the thrift store to see if they had the play mat that was Willow's. No go. (but not surprised)

In a last ditch attempt, Mommy posted to freecycle that she wanted one.

*heavenly choruses sing*

A woman replied to Mommy's post, and today I got my play mat. It's better and nicer looking than Willow's was, and it was FREE. (minus the cost of gas to go pick it up)

Yay!!!

My sadness in these pictures is only b/c I'm hungry - trust me, I'll like this play mat.
