Shoes
Alan (age 3) has:
1 pair LL bean suede slip ons - black size 11
1 worn pair of Mossimo sneakers (need to replace) size 11
1 pair dressy elephantene sandals (forget the size)
1 pair TCP cork sandals (size 12, a little big)
1 pair flip flops - size 10/11 from Dollar Tree, he doesn't seme to like them.
1 pair fleece lined slippers (size 11/12)
1 pair rainboots (size 10, but seem big)
(He has a few other pairs, but they no longer fit or aren't needed like snow boots)
I'd like to replace the sneakers and get a pair of water sandals for play. He has a high arch like me, so shoes with zippers to close them don't work. And he HATES to try on shoes!
We are going to an old fashioned full service shoe store tommorrow to see what I can find for sneakers.
I'm not one of those who collects shoes. I'm hard to fit myself - I have a wide foot with a high arch. I also don't like high or dainty looking heels as I cant' walk in them. I'm guessing I have around 12-15 total pairs myself including stuff I don't wear. I've been switching off all winter between my 2 pair of LL bean mocs (one slide and one moc - the same as Alan's but in women's size 6). Still haven't figured out what I'll wear in the summer - LL Bean doesn't really make a work-wearable shoe in 6 wide in the comfort mocs.

Alie has about 20 pairs now. I dont like shoes to get torn up or dirty looking, so with her having so many, they stay nice. I know it's kind of a waste, but it's my one indulgence :) She grew into a size 7 (well with a thumb size room for growth) around December, hopefully she wont have another foot growth spurt until the fall. I'd really hate to have to buy all new sandals right after I just bought some.
