Another milestone: a girl's first shoes

This evening I finally took Clair shoe shopping. Our girl is ready to walk and wants to get down outside. She need some shoes!

Clair was a champ and we found two beautiful pairs of shoes for her little extra wide feet. She enjoyed walking around the shop and looking at herself in the big mirror. 

Once we exited the store and started walking around the mall, I realize this is the last time I would be buying anyone their first pair of shoes again.

It's amazing to watch the wonder and exploration in my little ones eyes as they see or experience or try out something new for the first time. Clair enjoy the ride in her stroller while trying to pull off her shoes for the next 30 minutes. This was very different than the way she has been able to easily get her booties off her feet.

These little shoes are so cute. Look at them next to the size of my one tennis shoe.
