Use It or Lose It Vacation: Day 5 - T-Rex Feet

Troy’s lone souvenir from the museum yesterday was a pair of slippers that look like T-Rex feet. He wanted me to put them on him first thing this morning, and he hasn’t wanted to take them off since. When he’s walking in them, he looks like one of those videos of the dogs wearing shoes. He exaggeratedly picks up his feet and gingerly puts them down, like he’s not quite sure how to walk in his new feet. Either that or he’s trying to stomp around in them like a T-Rex.

When we told him that breakfast was ready this morning, he came running into the kitchen and slipped and fell on his backside. He said, “I slipped, dada.” I picked him up and carried him to his chair. I said, “It’s okay. You have to get used to your new feet. After all, you’ve only been a dinosaur for a day.”
