New Shoes



We were excited today as the UPS man rang the doorbell holding a package from Piperlime (by the way, they have some great stuff and free shipping and free returns.) Owen has outgrown his Umis, but he hasn't wanted to let them go. We will tell him to go get his shoes, and he always brings those to put on. We have tried some of Micah's old shoes, but he still seems a little clumsy in them. He is top heavy (see July 22 post) and therefore has to work a little harder to keep his balance, so he surely doesn't need clunky tennis shoes to trip him up! We were on the lookout for some shoes similar to Umis for him because before a couple of weeks ago, Umis only went up to a size 4. I was so happy when I happened to look one more time on Piperlime.com and found that Umi had two new pair of puggles both in a size 5. We went with the orange because they seemed a little more fun. Owen couldn't put his new shoes on fast enough this afternoon.

These are great!! We're so happy for you, Owen! I'll be sad to see the last pair go too... they were so distinctly Owen!
