The Shoe Queen

Seriously....how FAST can a toddler's feet grow!?!?!?

At the end of May, Grace was wearing size 7 toddler shoes. Yesterday, I looked down at her cute flower sandals and realized that her big toe was hanging out the front of her shoe. DAMN! So off to Target we went for new shoes. Of course, she had to find every pair of Dora the Explorer shoe they carried this week; we ended up with 2 pairs of them....in size 8!!!! All the size 7 shoes went into the "Grown out of Shoes" box that I keep in her closet.


(Sidenote: Mama Chix---I am mailing that box to you!!!!)



I have been told countless times that babies/kids grow out of clothes so fast. I never really thought that shoes would be the true culprit to my depricating bank account. At least her clothes will last through a season.....this is round 2 of the spring/summer shoes!



Oh well. Every girl needs cute shoes and now Grace has adorable little shoes that will fit her for 3 or 4 weeks!

My daughter was the same way! It seemed like every other week her feet grew. But now that she's almost 5, they seem to have tapered off a bit. I love the background on your site!

Wow thats fast. G is 27 months and her feet have always grown really slow but then again so does she. She still wears a size 5!

I totally know what you mean. I had put my little guy in new shoes a month ago, and it seems his feet have outgrown them already. Yikes. Agreed about Target, pretty cheap and yet pretty comfortable shoes for the little people in our lives.
