Shoeless Wonder

We had some errands to run today so I opted to put my regularly shoeless (non-walking) baby in some actual shoes and socks.

"Max! Let's get some shoes and socks on you," I said to him as I grabbed him to sit him down. He was obviously excited.

Aiden, who was watching this process asked me, "Max likes putting on shoes?"

"Yes, he really loves them."

"Why?" he asked in total disbelief. After a moment more of watching he realized, "Oh! I know why Max likes shoes. He doesn't have to put them on!"
