Andrew turns one on Friday. In 4 days, an entire year will have gone by since this little nugget entered the world. How is that possible? I was just pregnant and filled with anticipation on who this person in my belly would be! But here we are and to celebrate, we decided to accomplish another "first" before his 1st birthday.
If you are a Facebook friend, you will remember that Andrew took his first steps last Sunday. Here is a little video that captured this momentous event:
Since we have a soon-to-be walker on our hands, we decided he should have some proper footwear.
Enter Stride Rite.
We have been loyal customers to this kiddo chain since James got his first pair of shoes back before his first birthday. We find that the value of the product is great as is the customer service so we head there whenever new shoes are needed. After a slightly traumatic haircut, we thought that getting some new shoes might cheer Andrew up a bit.
We were wrong.
This is what happened when the nice sales lady tried to measure Andrew's foot:
And this is what happened when we tried to get him to walk around a bit in his new shoes:
I guess shoes are just not his thing. Or strangers. But he did pull it together once he got used to everything.
His foot is slightly smaller than James' at this age measuring in at a size 4 vs. James' 4.5 wide. His new little shoes make him even more adorable than he already was. Time to get movin' and conquer the world...or at least the living room. :)
awww!!!
