New Shoes

To say that Audrey has been an easy child would be an understatement. She rarely cries, never has meltdowns, pretty much goes with whatever we say. If I could find a way to clone her sweet and agreeable personality, I would be a trillionaire.... Audrey is one easy going kid, with minor exceptions:

1. There will be days that she wants to wear her knit poncho outside. Typically when it is 90 degrees or hotter. We just go with it; it's just not worth arguing with her over it.

2. She insists that she needs to periodically carry an umbrella... Indoors.

3. Trying to get her to wear shoes other than her pink crocs has been a challenge. We know that she can't wear them forever, so we put her in a pair of Lucy's old shoes, and it was a complete meltdown. Poor girl, she was crying so hard, she could barely catch her breath. She would take off the shoe, show it to kyle or me, and say ", No. No shoe." and throw it back into the shoe tub.



All by herself in the car!

So today, I took just Audrey to the store. She stood at the front door waiving bye to Nolan and Lucy, a bit confused of why it was just her. As we went into Target, I explained that we were getting her new shoes. She became excited and did her typically skip/jump walk down the aisles until we arrived at the shoe department. She quickly picked out a pair of purple/pink shoes and helped put them on her feet. She was so proud to show off her NEW SHOES!
