Big Foot, Little Foot

Today is my “little” brother’s birthday!

23 years ago, I could hold him on my lap.

Here’s a family classic picture of Brad that MUST be posted on his birthday.

Ok, now on to the little foot:

That would be Rosa, as we often call her. Rose’s feet are a size 2. At her age, Jay’s feet were size 6. Where did her petite feet come from? Not from her parents! Or any of her grandparents, for that matter.

Aren’t they cute? Rose calls them “zoo, zoo!” I rather adore them. And they are from Walmart, of all places! I don’t even remember the last time I set foot in Walmart. They were always out of everything on my list, so I gave up on that huge annoying place and turned to Target. Well, Target has been seriously lacking in the kids’ shoe department lately, so I briefly reigned in my pride and slunk into Walmart. Hello kid-shoe jackpot!

Jay got some Walmart summer sandals this week too. Jeff and I have had our trusty Keens for a few years, so now we all match!

Happy Birthday to Brad!

And happy summer sandals to the rest of us!

Haha, those are some of the cutest pictures! I will have to say, I too have a pic of me and my little brother in a skirt... I was the only girl for 9 yrs, and he let me dress him up :), what a good sport he was!

We need some new summer shoes too! But I'm afraid like most things on our list, it is going to have to wait for a few more weeks until after we move.
