Baby Shoes

We've never put shoes on Ava before. Well
now that's she's walking, she needs shoes.
We went to a b-day party Saturday and she
wanted to get down and walk. I let her,
but she stepped on some rocks and got her
feet dirty. It made me realize that she
really needs shoes. I took her yesterday
to get some and she freaked everytime I
touched her foot with the shoe. I don't
know what to do. Anyone else didn't put
shoes on their babies and had a problem?
The only thing I can think of is just put
them on and let her throw a fit until she
gets use to them. What else can I do??

let her play with the shoe a few minutes
before you try put it on her foot !
I know isn't the same thing but I love
headbands and my daughter didn't let me
put it on her head so I gave it to her and
she played with it so when I tried put it
on her again she wasn't scared anymore ...
lol ...
good luck

I just got brayden his first pair of shoes
too!! He got mad at me for tryin them on
him and kept curling his toes up so I
couldn't get it on! Now we put them on
him at home so he can play in them and get
used to how they feel! At first he was a
little confused on how to stand up with
his new shoes on, it was very cute!

How is she with socks? I'm wondering if
she has a problem with things being on her
feet or just with shoes. If she's ok with
socks maybe you could just get her used to
putting on sock's before you leave the
house so she sees a routine. Then work
your way up.

With Kyleigh, we didn't really put shoes
on her either, unless it was with a frilly
dress or something for a special occasion.
She hated shoes when we first started
putting them on her, but after a while,
she got used to it. Now she goes and gets
her shoes and tries to put them on
herself. It's cute.
Stride Rite (not sure if they have one
where you are) offers great first walking
baby shoes. They're kind of expensive
(Grandma bought these for $50) but they
support her ankles well and ever since she
got them, Kyleigh has been walking up a
storm.
Wal-mart is my personal store of choice
 For
$50, I could buy like 10 pairs of shoes

Thanks girls! I put socks on her only at
night. Almost every night when I go check
on her before I go to bed she has them
off.
I'll check out the stride rites. I found
the cutest brown shoe at Walmart the other
day, but she flipped when I put it on her.
She's in a 6 at 11 months. I'm afraid to
buy it too soon just in case she grows out
of them. I'm waiting until we buy her
fall/winter clothes. It's still hot out
here.

finn's in a 2!
finn doesn't wear shoes yet either. he
doesn't freak out or try to take them off,
he just stands there like "now what?" and
doesn't even try to walk. i need to get
him used to them so he'll wear his new
shoes for the wedding. i don't want my mom
dragging him down the aisle!

williams in a size 3 1/2! hes ok with his
shoes, but does take them off. hes not too
good in walking in them. i think he really
needs shoes that are quite slim and
slender so he doesnt notice them, but
nanny bought the pair he has on at the
moment so he has to get some wear out of
them!

Oni's been in a 5 for a LOOONG time! Her
shoe size is bigger because her feet are
wider.
Oni NEVER wore shoes. EVERRRR!! But once
she started walking, she actually did
BETTER once we'd put a shoe on her.
They were from Target and I SWEAR by them!
They're so CUTE and easy to put on! They
look JUST like stride rites and are only
9.99!!

wow liam is in a six at 18 months and i
thought his feet were big since macy just
got into a 7 at 2 and half. We bought liam
pumas for his first shoes cuz they are
kinda soft on the bottom but still shoes.
I dont have a shoe prob with macy, she
loves shoes (true girl?! lol) but liam did
that like Finn where they just stand there
or sit back down n try to figure out what
they are.
