Big girl shoes





Now that Aubrey is fully mobile we decided she needed some real shoes. While we were in Massachusetts we decided to hit up a Stride Rite. She got her feet measured and she is a size 3.5 wide. Such tiny feet....those are the size for babies usually between 6-9 months.

We looked and looked for a 3.5 wide and found only a few options - none of which I liked. One of the ladies that was working came over to help us and decided that Aubrey could fit into a size 3 wide. That opened up a few more options for us.

We ended up with some cute white and pink sneakers. They have two velcro straps on each shoe and they look like big kid shoes! She struggled with them the first day because the soles are very hard and she had bee wearing the soft soled flexible shoes. Once she got used to them she was off and running!

She really likes them now and she knows they are hers. At the end of the day when I take them off her she will get up off of my lap and run over to where I have tossed them. She goes over and plays with them trying to undue the straps. These pictures aren't the best but it gives you a small glimpse of what the sneakers look like.
