The baby girl clothing selection was adorable and we had such a fun time picking out a couple outfits and a sensory cube for our baby on the way. However, it is a higher end store and would not be affordable to do the majority of our baby shopping here.

This is an upscale baby supply store. One might say overpriced. While I got most of our kid's…read moreclothing at Target, we did not skimp on strollers and car seats. Everyone must pick their battles. Baby Grand has a very well-curated collection of baby stuff from clothes, books, toys, to furniture and strollers. I particularly like the deep stroller and car seat selection. We are a BabyZen Yo-Yo, Uppababy Vista/G-Link, and Maxi-Cosi family. The staff is very knowledgeable and helps new parents wade through the details to find what is best for them. The last thing I bought there was an Uppababy stroller bag and they were one of the few places locally that had it. They also have toddler beds in a separate area, because one day your little one will need to get out of that crib - and these guys have you covered all along the way.

I think this is a good place if you need that one cute outfit when you're pregnant, and they have a…read moregreat selection of maternity/nursing bras. They also have a friendly staff, and like others have mentioned clearly cater to pregnant ladies - drinks and snacks, a bathroom, and little TV/play area for kiddos and dads. Having said all that, their stuff is really expensive. There are lots of BOGO deals and other assorted "sales" but I walked out of there thinking "how in the F did I just drop $400 on clothes when she told me I saved a bunch of money, and I had an $80 credit for returns?" I will for sure be returning a few items - for example, the tank tops are buy one, get one for 1/2 off. Problem is they are $30! So paying $45 for two cotton tank tops is sort of a joke - you can get the same stuff at Target or Old Navy for way less. I feel silly for falling for all of that, but glad I have saved my reciepts and kept tags on everything. So - go for the cute dress you want to wear for your shower or to a party, and get fitted for maternity bras, but get your "staples" like t's, tanks and PJ's at other stores and you'll save a bunch of money.

There's a new maternity store at the mall and it is A-OK…read more I feel a little let down bc somehow the signs made me think it was going to be Huge! and New! and not just the same old Motherhood store and Pea in the Pod combined. The pros: *Clearly the staff knows how to treat and talk to pregnant women. *Free drinks. (bottled water, apple juice and OJ) *You can (obviously) try on a dozen pairs of pants (so much maternity wear is online only) When I explained what I was looking for, the staff helped pick things off the racks. *The pants were all crazy long on me (well thats a con. I'm 5'8 which seems like a pretty tall height for how long everything was!) But the sales staff figured out where in the mall I could go immediately to have the hems fixed. Thanks! *Like many maternity stores, there are couches and toys in case you brought along any toddlers or menfolk. *They seemed to have a pretty impressive selection of nursing bras (I wasn't shopping for those) but (another con, oops) not much in nursing clothing. (I'm always looking for that bc it is hard to find) The cons: *The Pea in the Pod stuff is $$$. You have $180 to spend on maternity jeans? Great for you! *The Motherhood (and lots of the PITP) stuff is just ugly. So many ugly prints on ugly fabric. *The staff is on commission and its obvious. Besides showing me her "favorite" pair of maternity jeans (the $180 pair) there was tons of talk about how to correctly ring up a sale while I was paying. Not their fault, but something I hate to see so obviously in retail. *Lots of promotional signs in the store, but many are very limited. I bought two pairs of full price jeans (each about $40) that were located right next to each other and a sign saying "select jeans, buy one get one 50% off" but there was no way to tell which pairs were "select". Mine weren't. *I bought a winter coat on red line sale for $70. Woo hoo! Well, not really but I'm happy to have it. There's a sale on red line items, buy 2 get 1 free. I couldn't find anything that I would want to wear at all for a second item, yet alone a third. Oh well.

I love this store for many reasons. One: they have a selection of clothing that you can't find…read moreeverywhere. Two: the prices range - there are price points for those who don't want to break the bank and those who have some to spare. Third and most important is the level of service.

We like to avoid tablets and screens, so we are always on the lookout for interactive toys. They have a lot of tools for both math and reading as well as support for learning other languages. The staff here is really nice, too. The person working at the time was also a school teacher and had lots of her own ideas and suggestions, which we really liked.

Was in the area and decided to stop by to see if there was anything worth getting.. and of course,…read morethere was! Isn't there always something worth getting at bath and body works lol. They have a new spa collection so obviously had to get some of that body cream... and they had a really great sale and some of the collidial oatmeal lotion (which is one of my faves) was on sale for FOUR dollars! So I grabbed quite a few. The store itself is clean, organized, and the staff was super friendly and not overly cumbersome, which is saying a lot since I specifically feel like bath and body works has reps that are floating around constantly. There is definitely a fine line!
