We were at the mall Saturday looking for a few things for Jason before his CA work trip. The babies & I passed by Stride Rite on our way to get me a CFA lemonade & I walked in when I saw the buy one get one 50% off sneaker sale sign. A lady measured Zach & Lucy saying L should be a 3 & Z a 2.5.
I met up with Jason at Belk {where he didn’t find polos for the deals he’d hoped} & we went back to Stride Rite.
We found a couple pairs for each we liked. And they were out of those. But they agreed to count the girl sandal sneakers as sneakers for L.
The sales lady brought out size 3 khaki shoes for Z {they didn’t have the blue/red sale ones we liked, but I think these will match more}. They don’t make cruiser shoes any smaller because ‘most size 2s aren’t walking’. They hadn’t met our strong, kick ass preemie! Luckily the size 3s aren’t that big & if his feet are anything like the rest of him, he’ll grow into/out of them quick. Y’all he looks so cute in shoes. Like a big boy. He didn’t try to take them off. Instead he cruised & crawled around the store & kept them on until it was bedtime.
They brought out white sneakers in 3W for Lucy as they didn’t have 3s. And they seemed to fit well. But I had us try regular 3s in sneaker sandals. And yep, big baby girl has ‘chubby’ topped feet. The sweet chub poked out of regular 3 sandals. So we found rediculously cute pink, orange & blue flowered shoes & Lucy stood in them! First time we’ve seen her stand. She wore them out of the store. And as seen in all three photos below, she played with & chewed on them all afternoon. Girl loves to mess with her toes!
We’ve gone 11 months almost the whole time in socks alone. But for my cruiser/almost walkers who will soon be playing outside more & more, yesterday was perfect time for their first shoes! I’m happy with them & 50% one & signing up for emails got us 20% off the total made the bottom line a figure J & I were both pleased about! Another milestone, checked off the list!
