She grew overnight!
One day, #1 is playing with her shoes and they are ginormous. The next day, she puts them on, and they fit. I was floored.
And, sad because her cute little tennis shoes that grandma bought her no longer fit (and she only wore them a couple times).
So, we had to make a quick trip to my favorite bulls-eye store to pick up some new ones (because I’m not going to buy more expensive ones for her to out-grow immediately).
I put her little foot on the measuring mat, and it said she was a 9! At the beginning of the summer, a 7 was too big. And, with a size 9, those little velcro shoes looked so baby-ish. So, now she has the real deal. Real tennis shoes that tie.
And, she looks like such a big girl…*tear*
I still want her to be my baby, but I know she’s going to keep growing and growing. Just another little milestone on the journey of life. (But, if she could stay little without the sass for a while longer, that would be great, too.)
Isn't she the cutest little thing…they grow so fast. I just bought a size 4 for my 7 yr old daughter and a men's size 10 for my 11 yr. old son. Just a little warning…the prices get higher the larger their feet are. *sigh*
It does happen overnight, doesn't it? She's just adorable, and the shoes are great!
At least she's not acting like a total big girl yet 🙂
The last picture is so cute – like she's working out! Why does it seem like their feet will stay the same size for months and then in one week grow 2 sizes??
Oh my goodness – that's seriously amazing! Izzy, you sure are becoming a big girl REALLY fast. And, you better slow down because Mommy's not OK with it!
We recently bought our boys each a pair of shoes with laces. It makes them look so big!
My 4 year old did the exact same thing! And I'm totally with you on the velcro thing. 🙂 Cute girl!
My sons been wearing flip flops all summer – I'm betting his sneakers won't fit anymore either… Who told them they could grow up?
Karys has been doing the same thing – currently we're in a size 8!! What?! And it's hard for me not to buy shoes since I love them so much. I wish she'd stop growing for just a little bit!
Oh and that is the perfect picture! It makes her legs look so long:)
Just wait until your girls are eyeing up your shoes..my oldest is 10 and she keeps sneaking into my closet "Just to see if they fit yet". lol
It does happen overnight! Landon went a whole year without changing sizes and then he went through 3 sizes the next year! lol
She looks adorable in her big girl shoes!
We just bought cleats in a size 3 🙁 They grow way too fast!
Wow, a 9 already?! Ava at 4 1/2 is just now wearing a 9, just bought some a few weeks ago! But then, we already know she's gonna be short like me (5'1).
I feel the same, when they go up a size, it seems like overnight.:)
Oh, and those tennis shoes look great (always love target shoes)! I think we may move on up to tie-ups this fall. Ava likes to try to tie her daddy's shoes.
no more velcro?? she really is a big girl honey! passing the kleenex 🙂
ISn't it crazy…at the beginning of the summer Luke could wear his size 8 shoes, but a couple of weeks ago he wore them and got the ugliest blood blister on the end of his big toe. Owwwie. Yes, I'm a bad mom. Luckily, we had another pare of shoes (size 9) that he is wearing now (and probably will out grow within the month).
Isn't she such a cute big girl!
My Punky was a SIX last summer. She's a full 9 now. It must be the age. I was floored, too! She's always been tall, 75% for height, but I didn't expect her to grow so fast. She also was a 3T last summer and now she's pushing a FIVE in girls, not a 5T (although she can still wear some of them!). It's so bittersweet, so I'm totally feeling this post!
Isn't it amazing? Sometimes I think my son has grown after he wakes up from a nap.
She looks so happy!
I know, I know….They grow too fast!
But as far as shoes…..TigerBoy was in size 9 LAST summer! He's wearing size 12 now…..and he won't turn 3 until next month…….
She is getting to be a big girl! Isn't it weird how those growth spurts are instant like that?
She doesn't sass yet? Lucky.
Oh look at your sweet redhead! She is too cute. How fun that your children were born a day apart! My kids are almost exactly the same age as yours. My oldest was born in summer '06 and my twins were born october '08 too!
So bittersweet to see them grow!

Oh she is adorable! When you figure out how to keep them little (and without sass), do share!
She does look like a big kid in those tennis shoes!
wow they did grow!!! and i agree…i'm over the sass! she is getting so big Krystyn!
She is stinkin' adorable!!!
How on earth do you manage ALL THAT HAIR!?!? It always looks SOOO cute!
Wow…she has gotten so tall! She's such a cutie though! How are yall doing? I'm sorry I haven't kept up, it's been crazy here. Miss you!
Aww she's growing up! 🙂
It happens so fast. Believe me, I know because I am an expert on kids growing up in the flash of an eye….mine all did…and now my grandkids are doing it too!!!
And here I sit wishing sometimes that my son's feet would grow (well along with the rest of him…) I can't believe she went up two sizes! WOW!
Shoes? With shoestrings already?!
I think I'm going to press the pause button on time now…they grow up way too fast…
How weird is that?
She looks cute in her tennis shoes.
Holy moly – a NINE?! Okay – obviously she's gonna be taller than my shrimpy kids! LOL! (My 4 year old wears a 7, barely). Ha!
What a testament to growth it is when we watch our children outgrow their tiny shoes. Can't believe how big your two are getting!
