First pair of Big Boy Shoes!

Since Colin took his first steps last week, we figured it was about time to buy him so big boy shoes! My mom decided that she wanted to buy them for him, so we went out on Tues and Thurs. We looked at Target and Walmart, but they didn't have very many choices, and none fit his feet.  Just like the rest of his body, his feet are quite chunky!  So my mom suggested that we go to Stride Rite since that is where she bought all of my shoes when I was little.  We went to the store at the Allen Outlet mall, but they didn't have many options, so we drove out to the store in The Shops at Willow Bend and we found some really nice shoes!  :-)  We picked out our two favorites and then held them up to Colin.  He looked at them for a minute and then grabbed one!  So we let him pick out his shoes.  The lady measured his feet and said that he is a size 5 wide.  So now Colin has some big boy shoes that he can wear, instead of just socks! :-)  Thanks Gamma!!

Getting to play since he was such a good boy shopping for shoes!

Play time before shopping for shoes!

He climbed up in the slide all by himself.

Wrong way dude!
