First pair of shoes!!

**skylark** · 04-01-2007, 09:11pm

Well today my DD got her first pair of shoes!! She was been walking for a while now and we want her to have some shoes so that she can walk around the play ground in the park, and the garden (whe we get a gate).

I am so proud, she is a 4G in startrite shoes and a 4 1/2 G in clarks. We looked in 3 shops before we found something that I like. I liked two pair, the first is a boys pair but they looked comfy and practical...

but in the end we went for these in pink.

I'll opt for somthing for practical for her next pair. These will go into her memory box so the very least I could do is get her something girly this time.

It's really lovely getting their first proper shoes isn't it?

Although I'm amazed that Gemma can be walking and that old, last time I saw her she was very, very small. It goes so fast!

WOW! She is walking early!

I know Ms S. I can't imagine how big Storm must be now. I remember the first time I met her. She was tiny and I was 8 months preggers. She was an angel and being handed around the table. She got to me and I said "I don't do newborns" I was terrified to hold her

I don't think so. I am meeting some local mums at a soft play centre and going to the local NCT bumps and babes so there is no time for a trip to bluewater.
