We set off for our third trip to Shriner's Hospital in northern California. This has been the most exciting trip thus far. (And I hope that with each trip our girl will get more comfortable with medical professionals)
It was Jumping Joy's turn to accompany her little sis. The hubs stayed home to work hard on finishing our back deck. Nonna also joined us to have some good conversations to keep me awake on the one day trip.
The outer white is a very thin leather material to cover the firm foam. He measures the fit and LOVES it. What a relief. We were worried about her little curvy toes that they might rub causing lot of problems. Nope, we're good. Now he says to come back in about an hour and a half while he shaves the toe area to fit in her shoe.
We try to get a quick bite and head to IKEA. This is a new store experience for both of these two. Baby girl went last time, of course and enjoyed her first soft serve cone bites.
We were called back right after that picture so in the car we went. The "feet" were ready!
While we waited we ran into these friends from Fresno, again! Crazy!
Back to IKEA for our, now it's a tradition" soft serve cone. What a great day!
The Orthotist wanted her to wear them just one hour the first day or so then work up to regular wear to make sure they don't rub.
After just one week we could tell such a difference. She loved them right away but it took some practice to get smooth.
She loves her "new feet" and brings them to me. She also definitely has shoe preference. She loves her Easter shoes. They are a light silver with rhinestones on the toes. Girls ;)
