Having kids make you think less of your own wants and desires. Whenever we go to the malls, I always look for kids' stuff mostly, what they want and what they need. During our recent trip to Calgary, in our hurry to leave early, I forgot to bring Lei's boots as she was still wearing her sleeping clothes and her baby booties which aren't meant for walking. I packed her Crocs but she refused to wear them and that only means one thing, she wants a pair of new shoes. She did just that when we went to Banff. She was barefoot the whole time and only agreed to wear new shoes.
Anyway, I looked for shoes on sale at Old Navy when we went to Chinook Centre but they were not on sale, I didn't want to spend that much on a pair of kid's shoes knowing that she has several pairs at home. Hoping to find cheaper ones at Cross Iron Mills to pacify my toddler, we went from store to store until I saw the espadrilles on the display window of Gap. It looks really cute though it's not really meant for winter use but Spring and Summer are fast approaching. A bit pricey for my taste but I got a bigger size hoping to make it last the whole year :D
We went inside the Crocs store and I almost bought a pair of wedges. I didn't like the fit though, the size 8 was a little too tight while the next size fits a bit loose. I don't want to spend on something that's not comfortable and would just sit on our shoe rack. I would have preferred the flats but they were not on sale and instead asked hubby to just purchase a pair for Lance. He got the cool looking crocband sneakers and that made my boy really happy. He also got a new hat and paired it off with his new shoes. On our way out, some guys commented "what a cool dude!" when he passed by.
Looking at him, my boy really looked like a cool dude, love the new hat and shoes!
