Umi Shoes
Betty has had a total growth spurt — particularly in the feet department. It's so cold right now that we rarely go on outings — on most days she wears fancy dressup shoes alternated with snow boots — and I've been able to put off buying new shoes for quite awhile. But eventually, she's going to need sneakers again.
I picked out the Ithaca shoes from Umi. Because they're adorable and I want them for myself. Plus, they came with glowing recommendations like: great quality, long-lasting, flexible and carefully constructed. I like that they look like childrens' shoes — and not tiny versions of grown-up shoes.
(Betty's too big now for the version with the upturned toes, but I think they are the cutest things ever.)
P.S. — This is fun. I just heard from an Umi Rep. She said that for the entire month of February, anyone who signs up to receive the Umi newsletter will be automatically entered in a daily giveaway to win a free pair of UmiPram pre-walker shoes worth $40. That's 28 chances to win. Nice.

Thanks for he link. I am going to get my boy some this very afternoon perhaps.
Tell me you get a great deal and didn't just spend $60 on a pair of shoes your darling little girl is going to grow out of in a few months. Well, I guess that's one way to help the economy.
I have always adored Umi shoes, but the price kills me. I just can't do it! So we've been sticking with Robeez so far since they're a little cheaper. I would love to hear about any great deals on Umi shoes that people have found.
i have purchased UMI shoes for a discount at astore.amazon.com/umi.shoes
Just found a pair of Umi boots for my son at our local kids' consignment store in excellent condition - $3.50!!
