I had an amazing day with Olivia and my mother-in-law.  We took Olivia for some much needed shoe shopping.  I have the hardest time finding shoes for Olivia, so we headed over to Little Feet Boutique.  They are a bit pricey, but at least I can find shoes that fit her.  I’m proud to say that Olivia is now a size 8.  It seems like she was in a size 6 forever!  LOL.  Then, we headed out to Towne East for some shopping at The Children’s Place.  Now, this is a place that I need to avoid at all costs. . .especially when we’re running low on our winter “cousin Katie” clothes.  We will hit a whole new slew of them, however, when we get to size 4T!   Let’s just say that Olivia got quite the wardrobe makeover today.  And that’s on top of the new coat that she got yesterday.  Her old coat was getting way too short, but she was very attached to it.  When I’d try to get her to wear a different coat, she would cry, cling to her old coat and tell me that she loved it.  Thankfully, she wore her new coat today without any tears.  She’s going to be a brand new girl with her new coat, new shoes and new clothes. . .sheesh.  I think she might be going through a growth spurt.  I have heard rumors that these things happen, but I’ll have to see it to believe it.
