Shoes

So, shoes. Like many women I love a beautiful pair of shoes, but I also like a good deal. Knowing that Cecilia's shoes are, at least for now, acting as a substitute for a brace, I am taking my shoe mission very seriously. The insurance co-pay for a brace could easily be a few hundred dollars so these new shoes have no budget. Whatever we can do to help her walking improve we will do.

We went to a great local shoe store and they were incredibly helpful. Cecilia tried on a few pair of shoes and it was very clear to us that the Ecco's made an immediate difference in her walking. Sold. They were on sale and they were still $50. Yeesh.

Since this first shoe purchase I have kept looking for deals on the recommended brands of shoes. I have gotten lucky and Cecilia now has three pair of fancy shoes that currently fit her and a few more pair for her to grow in to. Nothing like getting shoes for half off to make you feel like you've won some shopping contest. SIlly, but true.
