Sometimes living life in a big family does feel like a three-ring circus, but that's my life, and, all-in-all, I LOVE IT!

Sophie Has 'Build-A-Bear' Feet?

Yes!  It looks like God made Sophie's feet to fit perfectly into a pair of Build-A-Bear shoes.  Sophie has round feet and her Mom & Dad could not find any shoes to fit her.  That is until Erik took a pair of shoes meant for one of Mia's Build-A-Bear dolls and tried them on Sophie's feet.  And these round little shoes fit Sophie perfectly:






Well, while we all thought it was funny, Sophie's Mom, along with Grandma & Grandpa and Aunt Ellie weren't having any of that!  We were on a quest to find something other than fat, round doll shoes for Sophie.  Grandpa and Aunt Ellie found slipper socks with a rubber-soled bottom, and Lori saw another pair of shoes that looked sort of like sweater boots she thought might work, but I was determined to find some kind of a soft shoe to fit her.
Finally, I think we found something!  They seem to fit!  And they stayed on even while she jumped and jumped in Eóghan's jumperoo!



Much better!  Don't you agree?

    Yes, I agree, Eileen... the brown shoes with the little pink flowers are much better. Alivia still loves going to Build a Bear!
