These shoes were made for walking ...

Elijah just got a new pair of shoes - his first real shoes. By "real" I mean made for actually walking in - they have a normal sole, not just cloth. I think it's very exciting. Elijah just thinks it's a little weird. Of course, it's still summer, and he isn't walking on his own quite yet, so he doesn't need to wear them much right now. Bare feet are so much more comfortable, and better for learning anyway. But he's got room to grow into the shoes, and he'll need them soon! For now, they are just too darn cute. Elijah is getting to be such a big boy.

    I have to admit we haven't even put socks on Rylee yet.
