Judah's "Magic Shoes"

If you have seen us in recent days you have probably noticed that Judah is wearing some funky looking shoes with a bar. The "boots-on-a-bar" or foot abduction brace are to help turn his feet outward. We are wearing these oh so fashionable shoes because he was born with feet that turn inward. I noticed his little turned in feet while we were still in the hospital, but it took our Pediatrician a few months to agree with me ;-). He has been wearing the boots for about a month now & we are already seeing some good improvement (yay!).

Here are a few pictures of the "fancy" shoes.











































His newborn feet looked like this:
Basically, they turned up and in a little. He ALWAYS had them curled up, so it was kinda hard to tell.









































This was when he was just a few weeks old. I snapped a few photos because I thought it was odd that his feet turned in so sharply.
















I also found it odd that they were always facing each other sole to sole.

We have had a lot of people ask how long he will wear the shoes and we are not really sure, but I suspect it will be several more months. So, there you have it...pics of Judah's new footwear! He's not a big fan of his pricey boots just yet, but he'll get there :-).
