Ikwym Von, Aidyn didn't/doesn't really like his shoes either. I think shoes actually make it harder for them to balance, as when Aidyn is barefoot or just in socks, he will walk 90% of the time, but with his shoes on he loses his balance so much more and wont walk nearly as much. Just something for them to get used to I suppose.
Though I have to say, it is bloody annoying to go searching all of the aisles at Woolies to find the shoes that he slipped off and dropped out of the pram #-o
