The Infamous Little Red Chair!

For those of you that don't know about the little red chair, this was a gift that Grandpa Frank bought for her way back before we knew she was even a she! He saw it in the window of a furniture store downtown, although when he went back to buy it, it had just been sold so it needed to be ordered. Well after more then 6 months and still no chair, and after being told repeatedly it should be in soon, the owner of the store finally said it had been discontinued and she couldn't order it anymore. Keep in mind it had been paid for this whole time. Apparently she wanted to order more then one at a time to save on shipping, but waited too long. So we thought that was nice of her to just take his money and do nothing with it! So no chair and Grandpa Frank was so disappointed! Well the other day Grant and I were driving downtown, and guess what we saw in the window, a little kids red rocking chair! So we took a picture of it and showed Grandpa Frank just to see his reaction. We were thinking the lady lied again and finally got around to ordering the red chair. So the next day when I came downstairs to our surprise, but not really, there was the little red rocking chair in our living room. I guess the store sells on consignment, and apparently someone had returned it after their kid grew out of it. I think it may end up in her nursery, since it will go perfect with all the ladybugs!

The chair looks so cute (and little) next to the couch! I agree it will look great in her nursery.
