well my day just went from good to crap in

A whole 5 minuets..ok my mom knows how i am,, if i get my heart set on something its hard to change it..ok she took me at the beginning of my pregnancy to babies r us and made me do the registry..it was really fun. She had me pick a travel system that i fell inlove with..then a few months later tells me..well you don't really need a stroller just the car seat..so i was like ok if i just get the car seat is cool ill still be happy because i love the wayit looks..she just calls me and wakes me up to tell me that she isn't buying the one she made me test and everything..she's going to pick one of those big ugly all in one car seats because oh those are so much better..while yes i understand that it will be cheaper in the long run..why make me go and get my heart set and then break it..

Like i said earlier..its not the fact she is getting the wrong one..she promised me the moon you know,,"ooh its right around tax time you will get alot of your registry because the family has alot to spend now,,i didn't get anything of mine so be happy that everyone in the family loves you enough to get all this stuff..the only reason i didn't is because me and your dad aren't together" but yet she is turning on her words..i don't like being lied to..I'm glad she is getting my son something but why make me waist all that time and get my hopes up to crush them? It would have been one thing if she said we might be able to get you these things but she said we will get all the big things for sure..the play pen, the car seat and stroller, the bottles..the things i need..i didn't put a crib because they have outrageous prices..he can sleep in a play pen until he is 2 then a toddler bed..the car seat,, well i have to have one..i would like a stroller and the bottles so while I'm doing something and can't sit down and breast feed he can still eat..that's all i really want from the whole registry..and she won't even do that..is not like i picked the most expensive ones either..

Why don't you just exchange the one she got you and just pay the difference for the one you do want?
