Today we went to a place right down the street that serves Irish food. Okay it is basically a bar, but they have good food and we are not the only ones who take kids there. It is really a pub, so it is less tacky. We were surprised to see everyone in there wearing orange. Apparently there was a popular college football team playing today. It was loud...
Finn has never heard loud cheers for a sporting event before. His reactions were priceless...
After our Irish lunch, we decided to go shopping. Finn wanted to look at shoes. These are the Vans (on his feet) Tosh was voting for...
These were the Toms I was voting for...
And these are the horribly unattractive/ completely overpriced beauties that Finn loved...
They are Cars Crocs. They have furry insides. Finn has recently taken an interest in the Cars movie, so these caught his eye. I know that so many of my friends will be amused that Finn liked these. I am a known Croc hater. I am also usually the person that hates characters, however they are Finn's feet and his decision. Tosh was having a really hard time committing to these shoes, as he is apparently more of a Croc hater than myself.
After looking at shoes, we hit up the boys section of Macy's. My baby is not an easy to fit 12, 18, or 24 months anymore. We actually went in the dressing room and he tried on jeans and a shirt. As you can see, he did get the Crocs...
Buying clothes has never been super easy for Tosh or myself. Now we add Finn to the mix. He is apparently not a standard size on shoes or clothes. So here begins a lifetime of hard shopping, hanging up clothes so they don't shrink, and hearing the phrase "we don't carry half sizes" every time you go in a shoe store. Sorry kiddo!
He was so proud of his new jeans.
The Crocs do have different characters on each shoe so this should help with getting the shoes on the right feet. Good one, Crocs.
