A Girl can Never have TOO many SHOES!
August 24, 2010 by Lisa Beth
She’s a girl after my own heart. She does own more pairs of shoes than her mama, which is totally not right – but hey, she’s my one and only princess so I guess that’s justification enough.
Brooklyn LOVES shoes. And when I say LOVES, I mean LOVES! And she really isn’t into tennis shoes or shoes of THAT kind. She likes her pretty shoes. She will run around the whole house looking for this particular pair of shoes screaming, “Shoes? Go! SHOES? GO!” Which is her way of saying - I need my pretty pair of shoes to go out of the house, where are they??? Does a girl’s love for shoes start this young? Did I do something to encourage this? Perhaps by buying her all those adorable shoes. Ironically, the pair she is SO attached to, just happened to be from Grandma Patty….
Do you love the piece of gum stuck on the bottom of her favorite pair of shoes? Lovely, that I didn’t notice this bit of information until I posted these pictures. She wears them religiously around the house. I let her, simply because most days it is not worth the screams of protest when I take them off. Wyatt, of course, is quick to point out that we shouldn’t wear shoes in the house. When I tell him, It’s OK, just leave it alone, he asks if Brooklyn’s feet hurt, if that’s why she is wearing them in the house. Amazing that he picked that up from me (I often wear my Danskos int he house if my feet are sore). So I tell him, yes, her feet must hurt. That is why she gets to wear her shoes in the house.

OK, this must have been scheduled ahead of time, because HI NEW BABY!!?!?!? Right? Or are you that skilled as a 3rd-time mama? Either way, I’m impressed.
Bella is very shoe obsessed, too. She grabs strangers shoes and will inspect them while saying “Shoooo, Shooooo!”

Ha ha ha! No , just killing time at the hospital – don’t have my pics of baby Easton loaded onto my computer yet – hopefully tomorrow. So I thought I’d blog about Brooke’s shoes – silly, and maybe Precocet induced…..

Are you sure it’s gum? It looks like a wet leaf to me…..
