Look at that hair!

I forgot to mention on my clothing post that yesterday was the first time I took Sophia out in public where not everyone admiring her cuteness rambled endlessly about the full head of long downy hair my monkey baby sports. Usually people will go on and on as if there is no baby under all that hair, but not today. Several people commented on the shoes she wore for the first time.

These Robeez shoes were given to us by a friend. Two hours after we arrived home from the hospital with Sophia our friend called to see if she could come over and “drop something off”. I told her she had perfect timing. She hadn’t even heard the news yet. I hadn’t thought much about Sophia wearing shoes especially not the very day we brought her home. I often see babies with only one shoe on because the other has fallen off to a place only dogs and people without children can find and thought they only added to the cute baby factor on kids that can’t even walk yet, but yesterday was so cold! I realized a nice pair of leather shoes provide a kind of protection from the elements that socks alone just can’t, and these shoes fit very snuggly so they don’t fall off. The elastic really keeps them on well and they’re so cute!
