Hi Hon!
Sounds to me like nothing's wrong. They are probably just done with their flower cycle and are shedding the blooms, just like mine is doing. You can pull off the spent flowers and they just might give you a second flush of flowers in a couple of months.

You also don't want to overwater them. Water only when the soil feels dry. The one problem I've found with plants at Lowe's is that they don't know how to water their plants correctly. I've seen plants like the Christmas Cactus soaking in water and others dry as a bone.
Once they finish flowering you should water less often, put them in a cool place and then in the spring you might even get another flowering. Once they start to bloom again, resume a watering schedule.
