Luke doesn't like socks or shoes. I think they hurt his feet, the shoes anyway. I have a couple of pairs of sandals that fit him strangely, which makes me think he may have odd shaped feet or wide feet or something. Until he can tell me, he'll be a barefoot boy. It doesn't seem to be a problem as his feet are as tough, though baby soft, as hobbit feet. He went barefoot at the cabin where the grass is coarse and the dirt is ground granite. Ouch. He loved it.
a little sandbox time is always enjoyed. the sunscreen base makes for a great adhesive for sand as the bathtub shows each night.
