New Chairs. For real this time.

August 14, 2010 by Amy

So about a year ago Sally told us we needed red chairs in our living room.

It looked like this

and Sally said it should look more like this

I agreed and I’ve been searching and searching for the right red chairs. Some I have found but the price wasn’t right or others were the right price and wrong color. But alas, I believe today we found just the right one. Baby Bear would be happy.

Thank you, T.J. Maxx!  And here it is in the room:

And yes, true to form, Scott is playing Call of Duty while I blog.

I’m really happy with them.

However.

Lexi is NOT.

We took out the glider and chair.  We put the chair at Scott’s desk and then was going to sell the glider.  Lexi started to have a breakdown similar to our recliner breakdown.  So we decided we’d just take our much-less used white rocker out of their bedroom and put the glider in there and sell the rocker.  I thought it was all solved but nooo….Lexi DID have a recliner breakdown and nearly cried herself to sleep because she wanted to keep both the glider and rocker.

We do a lot of things right as parents but apparently teaching separation of emotions and chairs is not one of them.

    LOL! Love the chairs!. By the way, I think I would love to have the glider rocker for in our new house for in the kids room because we have that creamy provencial furniture. Wonder if Lexi would go for that? Mom

    I actually want to keep the glider as well. She did mention you keeping the white rocker at your house though.

    or you could bring it to my house and I could use it as my laptop chair 🙂
