Boy Kenley has some big feet (but I guess so do I so I shouldn't be surprised). I got out a brand new pair of 7s I got her on clearance last year and they are too small. She is wearing them but either her toes sneak past the end or her heel moves back a bit too far off the back. Really?
So today at lunch I ran out and got some size 8 shoes. They look enormous.
(Again with the picture getting turned...ugh!) Anyways, I got her a pair of water shoes to wear at the splash parks/pools this summer, a pair of summer "tennis" shoes/sandals, and a fun pair of sandals I knew she would like because of the fun colors and the purple. I had fun picking them out and thought for sure Clay would think I bought too many and we'd take them back but he didn't mind them. Just have to try them on her huge feet tomorrow and see how they fit. She may still need a pair of crocs but we will see.
However, shoe shopping for her made me realize a few things: 1. I really need to go shoe shopping for myself. I have NO summer shoes and it's not good. 2. I'm a bit jealous of my own 2year old daughters wardrobe. She has cute summer clothes and now cute shoes and everyday I stare at the closet wondering what to wear because nothing fits right and everything seems off season and finally 3. It's so much easier for me to spend money on others than it is myself. I guilt myself out of everything. I bought myself a new dress (with birthday money none the less and feel guilty about that). I'm trying to remedy the guilt and I'm even taking Friday off to spoil myself (think haircut, massage, pedicure!) but here it is Wed and I'm feeling guilty about it since I know I'm busy at work and it's going to be a lot of money spent that day. YIKES!
Anyways, I'm happy I can get the things I want for my family but I also realize I need to put myself on that list occasionally too. Who knows, maybe I'll do some shoe shopping for my big feet on Friday :)
