The Shoe Files

I haven't posted one of these in awhile. Technically, this is from early May, but I've been a little busy.

The first pic are, in order, Rex's old shoes, Rex's new shoes, and Elisabeth's shoes. I just do this to highlight Rex's feet. I don't know if you've ever noticed, but this kid has the longest, relative to size, stinkin' feet I've ever seen on anybody. He's 4 years younger than Elisabeth, but his feet are the same size! Anyhow, note that Rex's old shoes weren't really all that worn out; they were just waaaaay too short!
Meanwhile, here are Caleb's latest trade in. Boys are really, really hard on shoes! They were so pretty new!

Wow! The shoes on the left lasted 4 whole months!!!! They had holes in the soles and the shoe laces were broken, but he was still wearing them. Now for this new pair....

That's right, I am using this blog as an official forum to record exactly how many pairs of shoes I buy my son. I think it amounts to new shoes about every other month, 5-6 pairs of tennis shoes a year. Is this normal? They don't tell you these things when you get your sweet baby boy all bundled up in blue banket and cap. They tell you to look out for the pee, but not the shoes!
