New shoes

Today we ventured to Nordstrom (Gramma wanted to do this during her visit but we didn't have time... sorry!) And we got you some shoes!  Since we're going to Colorado in a couple weeks and you're so close to walking, it was time to get some real shoes versus just your Robeez.  At Nordstrom there were so many colors and styles to choose from and after you cried, hollered, turned red in the face, and cried some more... we ended up with a nice brown pair of stride rites.  $59.95 later!  Wow!  Every day you take more and more independent steps... your max number today was four! 
Look at your cute little face... you are keeping your eye on the salesclerk... wondering if she's going to touch your feet again.
 Here's what we went with...
thinking Daddy would like the outdoor style and color
 On the way home, we went to the carwash 
and you had saucer eyes and kept looking all around. 
Mommy LOVES the carwash!
 Mommy also tried out your new chair when we got home. 
 You have been sitting in your chair all by yourself!
Something else you did for the first time today was use crayons!  We picked up some big crayons and a notebook for you at Target today... and then sat outside.  You bit a little of the tip off the blue crayon... yuck!  And then explored and climbed on the tractor. 
 A busy and fun day!
