They really do and I am loving recording Joss’ moments! Today we had a big ‘first’ the first pair of shoes! A little late at 16m as she’s not quite walking confidently they’re a whopping 4F! She was fab in the shoe shop giggling and allowed her feet to be measured, we chose these soft cruisers, I was against shoes before confident walking at first but she’s such an aversion to socks etc I wanted her to get used to short periods of shoe wearing, and my little show off took 6 steps independently tonight, the most yet!
Tonight I caught her learning about how socks work in her cot, we’d been playing happily and she took off both socks. First she stretched them, then she opened them, then draped them over her feet looking triumphant til they fell off, eventually she decided they maybe were for on her head and popped one on there saying ‘hat’ – then dolly tried them on, and Tramp but they still didn’t work, after ten minutes she got bored and moved onto practicing words, cheese, ‘nana and meow!
See? She was actually waiting to walk until she had her shoes!
Haha, how did she know?! I’m entranced by her funny ambling about when tired!
Aaaaawww so cute, I bought Layla’s first shoes this week too
found you on the #SSAmazingAchievements linky x
I love the way Clark’s do the little photo and gift box. I’ve kept Dexter’s. I just can’t get over how expensive they are though! Dexie’s first shoes were £30 – I don’t spend this on shoes for me!!!
I know, these are cruisers so were under £25, it’s bad that I don’t want them getting scuffed etc so we can keep them, right?! I was a bit disappointed her first shoes weren’t the red patent mary janes I’d had in mind but they’re sweet with the little bows!
Lovely shoes, Ethan had the same kind but we never had a picture taken :0(. Ethan was 16 months old when he took off. I love that she is also playing with her socks.
Thanks for linking up with Small Steps Amazing Achievements :0)
