Summer Sandals Take 2





Last year right after Madelyn was born, Aunt Allie (my sister) decided to start a tradition of taking Maddy to buy her first pair of summer sandals each year. Last year Madelyn was a bit too small to go try on sandals but this year we made the trip. I went along this year but I have a feeling next year it will just be Aunt Allie and Maddy, as it will be for many years to come.

Last Saturday we went to 9 different stores in search of the perfect pair of sandals and just couldn't find the right pair. Part of the problem is that Madelyn seems to have very small feet compared to the rest of her body, but since she is walking she needs a more structured shoe and they don't make many in her size. After trying on a few pair and hitting up department store after department store we finally found a cute pair at...Target! For some reason Target's shoes seem to fit her the best.

Maddy was quite funny when we put the sandals on her that night at home, she couldn't get over having shoes on and still being able to see her feet. She kept looking down at her feet after every few steps.

I look forward to next Spring when Maddy and Allie go out shopping and I get to be surprised with what they come home with!!

Target shoes fit Cami the best too. I have bought $35 pumas for her that ALWAYS fall off but the $5.99 pair of shoes from Target are the best!
