New Favorite Shoes

All this past week my sister Anna has been staying with us while she waited for the people she was driving to California with to finish school. Savannah loved her all week and sometimes she didn't want anything to do with me, she only wanted her aunt Anna! (who is admittedly lots more fun). One of the days Anna was here we took Savannah shoe shopping because all her shoes are getting too small. We looked at a few places and Savannah just stared at her feet when we tried different shoes on her, but seemed bored all around. But when I grabbed these little white sandals off the shelf she started yelling and pointing at them and wanted to hold them and look at them. I put them on her feet and when I tried to take them off to try on another pair she started to cry and point at them because she had clearly made her decision. I let her keep them on her feet when we went to check out and she was hilarious with a giant smile on her face. She kept kicking her feet around like she was all proud of her pretty shoes and she hasn't wanted to take them off since. Last night I was taking some photos in Salt Lake so David was watching Savannah and she went to sleep and when she woke up he said she cried and cried. He tried to feed her, tried to take her outside, tried to give her a binky, and the thing that finally calmed her down was to put her shoes back on. When I finally got home around midnight she still had her sandals on. And then this morning when I got her dressed for church I put some black shoes on her that matched her dress and she cried until I put her sandals back on...I told David he better start saving seeing as our one year old already has a shoe addiction.







(Savannah also finally learned to go down the stairs by herself instead of just crying at the top).
