The Strange Case of Lost Socks

A quick trip round the shops today. Only a couple of things to get. So being the proud Daddy I just carried #BabyPink in my arms.

Quick whizz around Tesco. Into Dealz and a short walk across the road to Specsavers.

After booking in my eye test and confirming the youngest lads Tottenham glasses were in. There was a short walk back to the car.

Now bear in mind throughout this whole expedition #BabyPink had been on my shoulder the whole time fast asleep.

Not a whimper or movement out of her.

Imagine my surprise then, when putting her into her car chair to see one bare foot.

A quick check on the path between the car and Specsavers, no sock. A look inside the shop. No sock.

I wasn't retracing all my footsteps. #BabyPink getting a bit heavy and my arms were still sore from shovelling concrete all day yesterday.

Where did the sock go? How did it fall off? Why didn't I notice?

This is not the first time this has happened. Her brother was well known for losing socks and shoes. Never a set. Just one of them.

Does your little one regularly lose things when out and about with no explanation?

Have you found baby socks and shoes when out shopping? Is there a pint sized thief stealing single socks and shoes?

Maybe I'll have to tie a piece of elastic from one sock to the other and feed it up the trouser legs. Like my mother had to do with my mittens.
