As Abby was putting on a pair of her shoes yesterday I noticed that she was struggling to get the shoe on her foot. I hadn’t noticed it before because she has been wearing her pretend Crocs for most of the summer and other sandals. It was time to get Abby new shoes.

We went this morning to buy Abby new shoes. It is always an adventure to go shopping, especially with a 3 year old who wants everything and wants to touch everything. We headed over to Burlington to find new shoes. Why is it so hard to find shoes that don’t have a logo on them anymore. Everything is either Disney princesses or Dora. Of course Abby wanted the princess or Dora shoes, which of course they didn’t have in her size. They were either too big or too small. Try and convince a 3 year old that the shoes are too big or too small with out a major melt down is a challenge.

Between my husband and I we were successful. We found a pair of pink and white heart shoes that light up that satisfied her. She also picked out a pair herself. She found black shiny shoes with a little heel. She loved them instantly. She want to wear them immediately. I think she liked the click sound they made and the little heel. She was sooo cute in them that I had to get them.

We came home and she was stomping around the house all afternoon. She is growing up so fast. Her first pair of heels.
