Shoe shopping

Recently both of my kids have been going through growth spurts. Well, this weekend we will be going to an assembly and Kevin absolutely needed new dress shoes. He keeps taking his old ones off because they are too tight. Poor baby!

Well, leave it to me to make an easy thing very complicated. Both kids and I headed out together. First of all, my favorite consignment shop was closed today. So I went to my second choice. But there were no boys dress shoes in the right size. There was. however, a very cute bracelet that I couldn't pass up! On to Goodwill. No little black shoes in Kevin's size. On to the mall. There were some shoes to be found, but most were over priced and looked uncomfortable.

So, finally, I decided to try Walmart. I had rules them out at the beginning, because the last time I went show shopping for he kids, Walmart didn't have what we needed. But, this time, there were several options that looked comfortable and were a decent price. Of course, Sarah, when she realized that Kevin was getting new shoes, really wanted a new pair, too. So I splurged and now both kids have new shoes for this weekend. Sarah's dress shoes are pretty scuffed up anyway, so I feel somewhat justified in buying her some, too!

Sarah's new shoes have a slight "heel." I'm putting it in quotes because the heel really is nothing to speak of. But Sarah's convinced that she has high heels. She really thinks she's quite grown. She's is four years old, after all!
