Today was a wonderful Mother’s Day. The day started with breakfast made by Seth and getting to go to church as a family for the first time since March. Levi cried going into nursery and coming out, but apparently he did well in between. We attempted Granite City brunch but there was a quarter-mile-long line coming out the door. So, we went home and Levi had a 2 1/2 hour nap while we snacked and caught up on The Office and Parks and Recreation.
Then we headed over to the mall and looked at the big fish tank and the puppies for a while. Levi just loves the fish and squeals in delight when they come into his view. After a bit, we walked down to the Stride Rite in our mall and had Levi’s feet measured. We were shocked to discover he was measuring a 6 1/2, so the lady said we shouldn’t go any smaller than 7. The terrible thing is, he’s been wearing size 5s from Target for the last 6 weeks!
We looked around the mall, then found some we liked and that Levi seemed to have no difficulty toddling around in. They look pretty cool on him even if they are a little bold! They were on sale at Scheels.
All we had were the blue and khaki grippy socks from when he was learning to walk, so we had to find him some cheap socks at Target. Johnny Carinos left all three of us parched for some fluids, so we got a mango smoothie that Levi couldn’t get enough of.
