There I was sitting at work for the 2nd late
night in a row.
Fun.
Okay – not so much.
Ah the joys of being an accountant and dealing with month
and year end.
It’s ok though.
Because of this, I get to share this gem of a story to tell
you about tonight.
We were sitting at our desks, just ate our dinners (yes, we get
to order food if we work until a certain time), and one of my co-workers was
re-energized and ready to go. Not to do work, but to entertain.
We got sang to –he was streaming music through his computer
and had found a station that played mostly songs from the 90’s – including Kris
Kross (sadly, I remembered how to spell that, and yes, I Googled it to
confirm), and other such classics.
He then moved on to threatening to do cartwheels (yes, we
were obviously that busy…don’t ask).
I was waiting for him to bust a move and dance to some of
the 90’s classics, but we weren’t that lucky.
I decided it might be a really fun thing to record his amazing lyrical renditions, but decided against it as he would definitely be sure to get revenge, and I didn’t want to be on the other side of that!
“Oh child, things are going to get easier…no their not; oh
child things are going to get brighter…that’s not the case!” Yeah that was one
of the ones he decided to sing to us while adding his own commentary to it
(referring to our month ends). At that point, I would say that we were
all slap happy and just ready to go home.

Remember
having Monday off? Well, we did. BUT we made up for it in the last 2 days.
Happy New Year! :P
So back to that dancing that didn’t happen – we got to watch
him race his chair between cubicles and try to avoid hitting the wall. He wasn’t
very successful.
I danced for 9 years from the time I was 3 until I was 12. I
really enjoyed it but it made me realize how important taking care of your feet
can be. This is why I’m going to tell you about Pediped shoes tonight. www.pediped.com
I have mentioned before that I love shoes. But what I may
have not have told you is that when they come in little feet sizes – I love
them that much more!!! (Specifically babies – no, I don’t have a weird thing
for feet!)
Pediped has a unique footwear system that consists of three different types of shoes – great for the first steps, next steps, and big steps (as they describe them).
“Why Choose Pediped?
From its inception,
pediped® has designed footwear to promote healthy foot development. Our mantra
has always been comfort, quality and style, in that order. This is why pediped®
shoes were among the first children’s footwear to be awarded the American Podiatric
Medical Association Seal of Acceptance for promoting healthy foot development.
You can rest assured that pediped® is a footwear company that cares about the
health and well being of your child’s growing feet.”
They have some of the cutest baby/toddler shoes I have seen!
*Seriously!!!!
How cute are these?
(They are the Pediped Originals – Natasha)
And they have a great sale page also. I found the next 2
there:
*I
think all little girls need some boots. These are the Pediped Flex Carrie (left)
and Pediped Originals Hannah (right). If I ever have a little girl I want the
Hannah’s for her! Love them!
Does anyone remember the episode of How I Met Your Mother
where Ted rocked the red boots? Made me think of it when I saw these – much cuter
for a little girl though in my opinion!
And of course we can’t forget about the little boys in our
lives! I thought these were both adorable too.

Some of the charities that Pediped
supports include the Make-a-Wish Foundation, VH1 Save the Music Foundation,
Children’s Heart Foundation, Operation Homefront, Toys for Tots, and St. Jude’s
Children’s Hospital – and this is nowhere near inclusive of all of their charities.
If you are looking for some shoes
