Shoe Time

Finally we got around to going to the store - mainly because I still can't embrace online shopping - to buy Nico his first pair of shoes!

There are only a few things that I miss about living in Atlanta - one is going to the ethnic market, another one is the Stride Rite store since there's not one here in Augusta. So for Nico, we first went to Carter's to see about giving their shoes a shot.

Well that idea fell apart quickly (according to them, he should be wearing a size 4.5 due to age, however, the size of that shoe was twice the size of his foot). And the selection was non-existent.

So we went to Dillard's which apparently is the only other place you can buy baby shoes around here. There we found the nicest lady who helped us! Nico got his little feet measured and they were tiny!

We picked out this pair of shoes, which was the smallest size they make and he started getting around right away:

 Happy baby with sales lady:

He got to wear his shoes home and he was so exhausted!

Besides his "everyday shoes" size tiny, we also got him a pair of cute little summer sandals! They are one size larger (because that's what was on clearance...)

Next up this week, is his first haircut! Stay tuned...
