Night-Night Bootsies!

Last night, Grammi, Piper and I went to a local weekly farmer's market to pick up some fresh produce. On our way home we stopped to run a few errands, one of which included trying to find some fall/winter shirts for Piper. We are in the process of making the transition from onesies to real shirts exclusively, to aid with our upcoming potty-training adventure. We were in a store and Piper noticed a pair of pink cowgirl boots. She proceeded to take her shoes off and tell me "Boot on, Mommy", while pointing at the boots she wanted. We ended up trying them on and she had to wear them out of the store, as the shoes she wore in were no longer suitable with her outfit. We took her outside to enjoy some of the beautiful day and realized there's an art to walking in your first pair of boots, so she had to get adjusted to them. But she was off running in no time. She wore them the rest of the night and even hated to take them off for her bath. We put her boots in her closet and continued with the rest of her night-time routine. When she was ready for bed, she started to climb up her step-stool into bed, then stopped, got down and went over to the closet. She waved at the closet doors and said, "Night, night bootsies".

We tucked her jeans into her boots for these shots for full viewing pleasure of the "Bootsies"!
