I guess I started this post a while ago (September 30th to be exact) and never posted it... I am not sure where I was going with this....
I love shoes... my father in law calls me Imelda Marcos, and I am afraid I have passed this love on to my children. I love getting cute things for my sons, and sometimes the shoes are the best part!! The boys love it, too. They love being able to make the choice of which shoes to wear and showing off new shoes. At any given point in the past they have had at least 2 pairs of shoes, sneakers and sandals. Right now, they have 5 pairs.... each! I strive to find shoes that are similar in style and comfort, but different in color or character so they can have their own individual shoe personality. For instance, right now one has red crocs and the other has green; one has tan and orange sneakers and the other has navy and green. They are now able to put on most of their shoes by themselves and this has been one of the major triumphs in twindom! I try not to buy shoes that have laces because tying 4 shoelaces is a lot to ask one person! And then if I wear shoes that tie... that's 6 shoelaces!
I am excited now that they are getting older and their feet are getting bigger they can wear some of the same shoes that I love like Converse All Stars, Vans slip-ons and Adidas Sambas. They are almost grown out of their current sneakers and while they have another pair of everyday shoes, I will probably get them some new sneakers... hopefully with no shoelaces!
