I just finished school shopping for my kids and smehow got dragged into THREE pair of shoes for my daughter. Actually two pair of shoes and a pair of boots. The boots were my idea. Since then I have been obsessed with girls shoes. The sad truth is my daughter definitely has more shoes than I do. What can I say? She is stylin! Also because she is still growing we get her feet professionally measured every 6 months. Right now she is a 2 but I always buy a 1/2 size bigger than she needs because there is nothing I hate more than shoes that barely get worn!
Of course here in Michigan we have the added expense of snow boots. And my daughter loves snow play still so we need tomake sure she has nice warm boots. I can say this for sure, boots these days are WAY cuter than they were when I was a kid. Remember moon boots? Yeah, I had a pair. Ugly as all get out but oh man did they keep your feet toasty! We get her measured for boots too because we do put thicker socks on her. It gets below zero in the winter here so we want to make sure her feet stay warm. And because 3 months isn’t a long time to wear boots, we don’t want to waste money getting the wrong size for those either!
I have this video I want to share with you too. It shows how to properly measure feet at home. A lot of parents hesitate to order kids shoes online because they don’t want the hassle of an ill fitting shoe, but this video is pretty thorough and shows step by step how to correctly measure a foot.
