This sweet girl started taking her first steps around 10 1/2 months, and was a full time walker by 11 months. She is now practically running...crazy. With this being said, it was time for some shoes for our sweet girl. As many of you know, I refuse to buy my children shoes until they can walk pretty consistently. (I took too many developmental classes as part of my Special Ed degree...and having shoes on all the time can hinder little ones ability to walk early since they aren't able to feel the ground as well. This didn't bother me at all with Greg, but it was SOOOOO hard to resist with Maria since all the little girls shoes are so stinkin' cute!!)
So off we went with Grammy to Stride Ride to get some new shoes (about 2 weeks ago...late posting). I loved watching her with her new shoes...it's like I added hundreds of pounds to her legs and it was an effort to lift them up off the ground. HAHA! She is a pro now...although she still tumbles when trying to run in her shoes.
HMMMM...these are new!
And we are off!
She had to check them out...she likes to undo the velcro when she is in her carseat!
Two walking/running babies certainly has made life interesting. Maria is defending herself more around Greg which has caused some frustration on his part. They are both into everything all of the time, and they certainly keep this Mommy on her toes! Lots of tumbles and spills and collisions, but in the end...we are blessed to have two happy, healthy little ones who love to be active and on the go!
