Picture day clothes, new jammies, and a lost shoe!

Yesterday Matt and I decided to go to the mall to see if we could find an outfit to have Will's one year pictures done in. We found some big surprises while we were there...
First of all Matt and I really need to get out more. LOL We went into a different entrance this time and found that we have missed A LOT in the local mall. We have been there a couple of times but we usually only stay at one end as we always thought there wasn't that much to the mall. Well apparently we were mistaken. :) We found that our mall has an Old Navy (we almost drove to Nashville to go there), several "children's" clothes stores and several other odd and end stores that are nice. Who knew! LOL 
So anyway we were on the hunt and went to a couple "children's" clothes stores, Old Navy, and JC Penney. We found the best deal at JC Penney so we bought Will some jeans, some waffle shirts, and a plaid shirt. I am so excited for his pictures! After finally getting the clothes we decided to grab some dinner from the food court. After we got our Chinese we started walking back through the mall intending to get in the car and go home. Well I was holding Will and noticed that he only had one shoe on. So Matt went back to the food court to check since that is where we took him out of the stroller there and it could not be found. So we retraced our steps and went into all the stores we visited and couldn't find it. Well Will was starving so we decided we should head back to the car without it and hope that he took it off in the car. No such luck! So today we decided that we would go back and see if it was found while the stores cleaned and if not then we would use some of Will's pre-birthday party money and get some new shoes. So we went to the stores again and yea!!!! it was at Old Navy. :) We were so happy that we didn't have to buy new shoes. 
We also decided that Will needed some more 12 month pjs because the 9 month ones which fit him fine, except his feet!, were getting hard on Will. (I swear this kid is going to have a growth spurt at some point and be as tall as my Dad! His feet are so big!) Anyway I wanted to get some that were two pieces so that he can wear them for awhile and not outgrow the feet. It is really hard to find some for his age, especially this time of year, because they are all footed and thick. Way too hot for here! But luckily we found some that are actually on the thinner side, but are so cute! Maybe now I won't be so worried that he is too hot. :) 
Don't ask me why he made that face but he is adorable! The pants are a little big but hopefully they won't be too much of a hindrance. 
Will also had a bit of an accomplishment the other day. He took about 2 or 3 steps all by himself! Since then he will finally use the walker that we bought and he LOVES it. He walks from one end of the living room to the other, until he hits that wall and can't turn around. :) I am hoping that this will encourage him to want to walk more on his own. :)
