Shoes!

August 8, 2011

Happy Monday!  Our weekend was very un-exciting and productive….love that.  We did take advantage of the Tax Free Weekend and got Maxwell his first pair of real shoes!  I’ve already shown you my love of footwear and so it wasn’t hard to convince me that Maxwell needed some real shoes for “school” in the fall.  (school = mother’s day out 1 day a week).  We got to the shoe store and, after measuring his foot, learned that our little buddy has quite a fat little foot!  His foot measured a 3.5 wide!

First we tried the cute Keds in both navy and white…

Even though they were a size 4 wide, they just wouldn’t go across the top of his foot.  So, we moved onto the New Balance…

Success!  See that little orange tag on the shoe?  Yea, it says WIDE in all caps!  I love my baby – chubby cheeks and chubby feet!

After going for a little practice walk…

we all decided they were keepers!

I’m sure this first pair of real shoes will get Maxwell walking on his own in no time!  In the meantime, he can just stand around and look cute…

Hope you all had a great weekend too!

 

 

Would love to hear from you! 5 Comments

    Cute shoes for a cute little boy – he needed shoes like Daddy’s – a mini Robert all the way!

    Awesome.
    Keath got new shoes a few weeks ago and we were saying how cute it would be if they made them for kids (the nb store he went to didn’t have kids). So cute! He’s ready to run (comes about a week after walking :-). I hope you got a new pair too!

    He wasn’t quite sure at first why he needed shoes, so he was more interesting in pulling all of the hair bows off the rack behind the seat.
