Sophie’s New Sneakers

We took Sophie to a Stride Rite outlet store in order to buy her her first pair of tennis shoes today. We decided to let her pick them out. As such, she is now the (very proud) owner of (boy) navy blue and white tennis shoes, with Buzz Lightyear on them—and yes, they actually light up. Whatever. She loves them.

(Ignore the bits of torn up book in the background. Apparently Tucker decided to treat himself to Big Red Barn while we were gone. Fortunately, it’s mainly the binding and corners—and still readable.)

“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You’re on your own. And you know what you know. You are the guy who’ll decide where to go.” —Dr. Seuss

    What do you bet that they will go to bed with her?

    Did she know they lit up before she picked them out? Interesting that such a girly little girl would pick out boys' shoes.
    She's very proud of her choice, that's for sure.

    I love that she picked out boys' shoes, and I love it even more that you let her. A few years ago, Vincent was allowed to pick out his own slippers, and he chose Dora. Unfortunately, I just couldn't let him get them. We went with Spiderman, instead. =oD

    So cute! Makenna just got her first pair of light up sneakers a few months ago. She LOVES them, especially if we are out at night. :)

    Good choice, Sophie! Will you be wearing them with your dresses?

    Sam watched this 5 times. I think he's smitten. She needs to teach Sam some new words — he's definitely NOT saying 'infinity' yet! Too cute!
