I actually treated myself to a pair of boots in January - knee high, with a 5 inch heel. They will last me for years because I don't wear them often. Oh, and keeping with my being cheap - they were only $30!

LOL! I take the same approach. Just got myself a pair of killer boots in October (before I found out about the new wiggleworm, or I'd never have bought them)that were $70...down from $250! LOL I was patting myself on the back for that. I've worn them every chance I've had since I bought them, since I'm gonna have to lay off of the heels soon. :(

They are sooo cute, though. :)

Yikes - I started replying to you over an hour ago - but my keyboard fried itself out!!! I typing along, talking to my daughter (school was cancelled today on account of snow) and I look up to post and there is nothing in the box!!!!

You'll get to wear the new boots again soon enough!!!

I LOVE the word wiggleworm - I still call my 6 year old that....she hasn't stopped moving since the first time I felt her move!!!

I didn't know about the "no heels while pregnant" rule until informed by a friend - at the time I had about 30 pair of shoes in my closet, but the only "flats" I owned were a beat up pair of sneakers and flip-flops! Which didn't work with skirts/dresses and hose in January! My friend, being the mother of 3, herself decided to shame me out of my stubborn refusal to give up my heels.

She showed up at a political fundraiser she knew I would be attending (we were both lobbyists at the time and had to do the face time thing) and handed me 3 shoe boxes in front of everyone. I didn't wear heels again until August!
