New Shoes

Joshua has a blister on his foot. You know the ones you get on the inside of your foot from an uncomfortable shoe rubbing there? It was time to go shoe shopping today. We went early this morning (9:30) and the only store open was JC Penney. When you have two kids, you can't always shop for the best deal. I had to decide between money or time, so I chose time. I don't do so well running around from store to store, strapping and unstrapping both kids, and searching for a good deal. That stresses me out! So I had to pay a few extra bucks.

There was a nice cashier to help us. First she measured Joshua's foot. Yeah, I was two shoe sizes behind. I then showed him two shoes to choose from. He went for red and black Skechers. They are the nicest pair of shoes he has had thus far.

As soon as I put Tabitha down, she started grabbing at shoes. She is definitely a girl. She was holding some inexpensive Keds when I thought I should have her foot measured. Yep, she was wearing the wrong size as well. Poor kids. Not anymore, they both have one nice pair of shoes. We will need a couple more in the future, but for now, they're okay.

As soon as we put them on, Joshua was ready to go to the park. I was watching him run up and down the hill. He was definitley checking out his new shoes. Tabitha's sparkly, pink shoes didn't match her red shirt, so she hasn't worn them yet. However, she did walk all around the house carrying them.
