New shoes

Now that our kids are walking, we go to a park or play area just about every day. As some of you may have heard, Seattle gets a fair amount of rain and that means that even on sunny days the ground can be moist. Rose and August's soft-soled indoor shoes were getting soggy outside so this week they each got a pair of Merrells for outside play. Here's how Rose felt about her new shoes. They felt awkward and made her stumble at first and that made her mad. She wouldn't walk in them for a while but calmed down when she got outside.
Here's a shot of Rose's shoes. We tried to avoid pink but in the end, these were the shoes that fit. Augie was asleep when we took this pics. We'll post his feet soon.
