Oli's COOL New Shoes

This weekend was very exciting and fun for many reasons, not the least of which was that Oli got new shoes. And not just any new shoes, but cool new shoes. Because of his braces, especially his big ones, Oli has been forced to get whatever shoes fit. We have done our best to keep him outfitted in cool shoes, including two pairs of Tony Hawk sneakers and a pair of Adidas. However, his footwear selection has been limited to extra wide sneakers.

This weekend at Journey's Kids, we hit the jackpot! Not only did we find Superhero Squad sneakers that fit, but we also found Superhero Squad Crocs that fit. We can use the Crocs for the water park or for variety, and the sneakers for everyday use. The sneakers light up, and Oli has been kicking everything to make them light. He has even been more willing to go in his walker, which, coincidentally, lost an important screw yesterday. It figures that as soon as he was willing to walk in it, he couldn't.

Luckily, we found a temporary replacement screw today, so Oli is back in business. Here are some pictures of Oli with his crocs and sneakers.
