Shoes

I have a lot to blog about but since the kids are up I don't have much time. Here is a quick story I can share and hopefully I will have more time later today :).

Last night I took the kids to Target to get a few things, including a new pair of crocs for Belle. She saw a pair while we were out a few weeks ago shopping and insisted on wearing them in the store and I obliged since it kept her happy in the stroller. Once we got to the register I knew I had to buy them or she would have had a fit and since they were only $2, I didn't mind. She wears them almost every day and absolutely LOVES them. Fast forward to now and they are too small. So, out we go and no crocs were to be found. Can you believe it? I know crocs are pretty popular so I know I can find them some where and it wasn't a big deal, however, I had already informed my daughter (whose first real word was "shoes") who loves shoes as much as I do that we were buying shoes. So, what's a mother to do??? As soon as I rounded the corner to the little girl shoes section my eyes were immediately drawn to the adorable pink "uggs" and since they were in her size and she was pointing to them saying "shoes, shoes, mommy, shoes!" I decided it was a sign I should buy them fer her. So I did. :) She came home and hurt her fingers pretty badly in the VCR and it wasn't till after we out her new shoes on her that she settled down and was ok. They look absolutely adorable on her and she insisted on wearing them to bed as well. I let her since they have not been outside yet but that seems to be her routine. It's not the first time she has slept in shoes at her insisting. It is now 9:45am and she is still wearing the shoes and I'm assuming she will wear them all day too. Shoes, phones, clothes and bracelets are her favorite things. Hmmmm, I wonder where she gets it??? ;)
