As Brooke becomes more mobile, and more insistant on "standing" versus sitting, I have noticed a bigger need for some shoes. When she is just wearing socks her feet slip around too much on many surfaces (and the socks eventually fall off ... or are taken off). Shoes for pre and early walkers have a flexible sole with grip, designed to protect her feet outdoors or on hazardous surface while still providing the flexibility her little feet need continue to develop and grow.
I ordered all of her shoes from See Kai Run, a company dedicated to making cute shoes for babies (and toddlers) that "meets the American Podiatric Medical Association's rigorous standards for foot health and functionality and has been awarded the APMA's prestigious Seal of Acceptance". They also are the makers of the pair of pink Mary Jane's Brooke is often wearing.
Look for pictures of Brooke in the future rocking one of these adorable pairs
