Colours!!!


Baby B has one pair of footwear that he will wear: yellow rubber boots. Okay, so he also agrees to wear Simone's yellow heels but that's definitely not outside wear. Simone, concerned that Baby B would refuse to wear anything other than his old standby on their upcoming cruise, took the boy to a local store.


Simone stopped the buggy in front of the children's sandals display. "What do you think of these?" she asked, pulling a pair of Spiderman sandals from the rack.


"NOOOOOOO!" yelled Baby B. You'd think she had stuck a lit match under his feet, he kicked them so hard.


"What about these?" Simone pointed doubtfully to a colourful pair of Barbie sandals.


"NOOOOOOO!" yelled Baby B. Then, mid kick and scream, he calmed down immediately and said, "Or. Boo. Gr. Yeh."


Simone followed the direction indicated by Baby B's pointing index finger and saw a large display of crocs. Minutes later, Baby B had a yellow croc on his left foot and an orange croc on his right foot. Simone sped the buggy back toward the cash register before the opinionated one could change his mind. Wonder of wonders, the crocs stayed on...
