So I took my own advice and traced my Half-Pint’s foot before I went on a major garage saleing trip a weekend back.  And wadd’ya know, it’s a good thing that I did!  We were frantically picking up good deals (and I mean FRANTICALLY), and Lisa said “Check out these boots!  What is a size 120?” 

Good Question, what IS a size 120?  Perhaps that was the model number of the boot (with no size to be found), perhaps it was a size in an unknown sizing scheme (I know my euro sizing and that was NO euro size!) 

Truth be told, the boots were so cute I probably would have purchased them to give to another mom (and they would have been oh-so-lucky) – couldn’t pass up something like this in SUCH good shape when they were only $5.  But had I been on the end of my cash stash for the garage-sale adventure, I may have had to make some last minute important decisions. 

And my special handy-dandy paper foot-sizer  would have told me “BUY ‘EM”! 

My little Half-Pint couldn’t be happier.  This momma is pretty happy, too.
