So about 3 months ago I bought Cruz these really good pair of Stride Rite shoes. I bought them plenty big so he could wear them a while. I noticed about a week ago they were looking pretty scuffed up and I decided to feel where his toe was in them and it seemed to be pretty close to the end. After I felt where Cruz's toe was he had to feel where my toe was in my shoe! I decided that he might need a new pair of shoes. I took him to the shoe store to get measured and after this experience I felt so bad! His foot was measuring a 7. His little shoes were a size 6 and his snow boots that I was still putting him in were a size 5. Needless to say we bought a new pair of size 8 shoes for poor little Cruz's cramped feet. No wonder he would pull his shoes off every time he had a chance, they were too small! It is amazing how fast these little buggers grow!
We walked down to this other shoe store in the mall and Grandma R bought him these cute pair of Vans. Actually the store didn't have his size and Cruz was about to have a fit because he wanted the shoes. We had to bribe him to get out of the store and we quickly drove to their other store to buy the little Vans that fit. Cruz hasn't taken the Vans off since we bought them. We usually have a no shoe policy in our home but he just won't take them off. I actually hid them yesterday so they could have a break!!

Oh Girl! i can relate to the growing feet! Everytime it feels like I just bought the kids a pair of shoes (esp Conor) and he's already outgrown them!
