The best gift for a newborn baby
Another mystery that was revealed to me when I became a mum was that of why do parents forget to put shoes on their perfectly combined babies?.
I spent years and years wandering why those parents that seemed to care about the most minimal detail concerning their newborn contradictory committed that serious and unforgivable glamour fault: leaving their child barefoot.
When I asked them why, they tended to provide me with a bunch of explanations/excuses that didnt convince me at all.
But one day, without knowing how I found myself turned into one of those parents facing the same questions I used to ask and coping with those looks of skepticism I knew so well
So in my defense and that of all the parents: YES, babies shoes are stupidly expensive. YES babies feet grow fast. YES secure shoes (with strings) are a nightmare to put, and finally YES babies are born with a supernatural power that enables them to get rid of any shoe in an eye blink.
Luckily one day walking around Gràcia (Barcelona) I discovered a shop (Petit Oh!) in front of the Llibertat market where they sold these socks that look like shoes. All of a sudden those looks of disapproval turned into nice comments and wows!.
So, for your info: theyre called Trumpette and you can buy the 6-pair box online for around 27$.
There are a wide range of different models for boys and girls from 0 months on.
It seems that the box in which they come in is very nice as well so it turns out to be a perfect gift!
