"These boots are made for walkin..."

Buck wearing the slippers I received from Aunti Hoonka for Christmas.

Won't take them off to eat.

So, for Christmas, I received a pair of slippers that I love from Coach K 1's wife Aunti Hoonka. They are beautiful slippers and were just the right present. I wear them so much that they usually end up right next to my bed as I go to sleep. Well, each morning, Buck comes into our bed (and then eventually climbs out of it). Inevitably, he lands near the slippers and then begins "demanding" (as you moms well know) that I put them on his feet (with his cave man grunts & points). It makes me laugh, so I always put them on him. Lately, he won't take them off until we leave for an outside activity & he can put on some of his own shoes (he's got quite a shoe thing going on). As you can see from the pictures, he loves the slippers. He does most of his morning activities with them on his feet. This makes it particularly hard when he's sitting down by a toy and the giant slippers get in his way - but, still, he won't take them off. Amazing.

On a "daily activities" note - it's so nice to have RKZ home again. He even stayed home from working out to take Buck for a while this morning. Love that RKZ.

We're gearing up for a trip to Colorado on Feb. 16! Can't wait to celebrate two great events at once! (More on that later).
