I will post pictures if you would like. They are pretty cute, and they have never been worn. I am really hoping they will work for you guys!Luke and Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00409625110469230884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1817534420224769131.post-39468571061100314652009-01-13T15:33:00.000-08:002009-01-13T15:33:00.000-08:00For once, I'm grateful that MK wears DAFOS on both...For once, I'm grateful that MK wears DAFOS on both feet! lol! Perhaps you could attach wheels to the bottoms of the spare shoes and make them into cars for him to play with. hmmm. I'll keep thinking.

I'm glad you found some shoes you and JT like. I hope they work well for you. Let's think of some creative things you can do with the extra shoes. Hmm.. a pencil holder? Yeah! That works!! You can hide things in shoes so well. Marshall does it all the time. I'll keep thinking. It's been a long stressful couple of weeks so I need to think of fun things for a change.Anita Naphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430060799465128260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1817534420224769131.post-63780877762229660182009-01-12T22:25:00.000-08:002009-01-12T22:25:00.000-08:00I SO FEEL what you feel right now.

I too love shoes, especially for kids. <BR/>Here is what I know: If you want to pay $50 for shoes there are Hatchbacks... they are awesome but they cost a lot! Even with those WE run into a problem of "the other foot". We are looking in to a "hotdog" I am not sure if you know what those are, but our PT told us about them. They go in the shoe that does not have a DAFO. Cascade sells them, for about $15, I think. As I understand it, the “hotdog” just takes up the extra room and you don't have to get two sizes. <BR/>When we first got our DAFO it was summer and crocs worked really, really well. They were easy to get on and they did not pinch Bree’s foot. But now I am stuck looking for winter shoes. We got a hold of some Hatchbacks but they don’t fit Bree. If you know anyone looking for girl shoes let them know!<BR/>Good luck. Let me know if what you got works out.Luke and Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00409625110469230884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1817534420224769131.post-8462380837743689232009-01-12T20:19:00.000-08:002009-01-12T20:19:00.000-08:00Have you tried the CROC's with his DAFO's?

He is doing OK in them, but falls alot. It was very frustrating. I usually just put slippers on them and let him go, but Lisa (The PT) told me he should always have shoes on. Sigh... you can't win!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17986134596025619230noreply@blogger.com
