What size is your child wearing these days? How many pairs of shoes does he/she have? Which ones are his/her favorite? Are you buying new shoes soon? Where do you usually buy shoes from?

Just bought her a pair of running shoes at Payless They are white with pink decorations and they light-up when she walks. Which I didn't know they would until she tried them on, and then of course she didn't want anything else. But it's her first year of school, she deserves some COOL shoes, lol.

She has a few other pairs Natasha outgrew or she got as gifts, like dressy shoes to wear with her uniform dressers & jumper. We'll need fall and winter boots in a couple months.

She is size 9

Ethan is a size 13 I just bought him 2 pairs of good sneakers for school. I still have to get him a pair for when he's home and weekends. He's very rough on shoes.

Keller has grown into a 10 from a 9 recently so we are getting new sneakers soon.

He has 2 pairs of Keens (sandals, and some skateboarding-type shoes), a pair of toms, a pair of Tevas, some running shoes, and some Crocs. I love shoes...love. I really want to get him some Birkenstock kids but its nearing the end of summer so I'll have to wait......

Leah is a size 11. She inherited big feet! She has a pair of sneakers, two pairs of sandals, two pairs of sparkly flats, some black Mary Jane-type shoes, and then a couple beat-up pairs of shoes that she sometimes wears in the yard. Her favorites are definitely the sparkly ones!

I usually buy her shoes from Target or The Children's Place. I have a feeling she'll be moving up to size 12 by the holidays, so I'll wait to buy anymore shoes until she outgrows her current ones.

We just got him some size 9 at the Nike store, but sadly he's already complaining they're too small. Going to have to go get some 10s next weekend. I usually just get 1 nice black pair of sneakers and 1 brown leather or suede type shoe, but sometimes he has a few other pair too. I don't buy anything open because the playground at his school is all sandy. He has worn fisherman sandals this summer but not to school. I usually get them at a shoe store, Gymboree or shoebacca.com.

Kate is fitting in a size 8 right now. The size 9 is way to big. It seems like she is kind of in between sizes though. Also it depends on the shoe.

Carrie has three pairs of sneakers in a size 8...I think they're probably too small by now. She's been wearing her crocs and flip-flops all summer.
