French fry run w/mommy

Last Wednesday, I took Kyle shopping for winter snow boots. First we went to Kohls. Sadly they only had two pairs of toddler boots - one for $60 and one for $40. If I had a coupon with me, I probably would have bought the $40 ones and called it a day. But I didn't, and I just couldn't justify spending $40+ on a pair of boots that he could potentially outgrow before winter's end, so we moved on. Next stop: Target. They too, only offered two styles of toddler winter boots. Luckily, Kyle seemed to like both of them. And even luckier, they were both only $20. I asked a Target worker if there was anyone working in the shoe department/section who could help us. There was not. I asked if there was a shoe sizer. There was not. Just a mat that Kyle could stand on and try to find the right sized outline for his foot. Going off the mat and his current shoe size, we went with a size 9/10. I let him pick between the spiderman pair and the black pair. I was sure he was going to pick the spiderman pair as he has spiderman shoes and loves them, but he wanted the black ones because they were "kinda like Daddy's". Fine with me. They match his snowsuit and winter coats better. It was a lot of work to get Kyle to sit still, cooperate, and walk around with the boots on, so I promised him (and myself) a quick trip to the food court for some warm McDonald's fries after we finished. Kyle and Mommy are both big fans of french fries ... They cheered us right up :)
