Any ideas for countering the DBB Houdini Act?

[Guest guest]

Okay, Vinny has finally had it with his shoes. Now that he's

crawling, he figured out how to pull himself up on his bar and

balance. He's even figured how to wiggle along the sofa in the bar.

However, he has decided it is considerably easier to cruise the

furniture without his shoes on. He is supposed to be wearing the DBB

23/day still. His appointment is Friday, then we expect he'll be

given a 6 hour per day allowance. Anyway, I have tightened the strap

as tight as I could without slicing his little foot in half and

wouldn't you know it... within 5 minutes they are off! Sometimes he

unties them, sometimes he doesn't. Every morning we have woken up to

no shoes or one shoe. I put them back on and by the time we are at

the sitter they are off. When I first joined this group I had to

laugh when I read an entry about a mom ready to duck tape the shoes

on. I'm finding myself seriously considering this. I have a roll of

it at my desk. I'm afraid to bring it home because Little (stinker)

Vinny just might find himself with silver sticky feet! What on earth

can be done to stop this madness... please answer after you stop

laughing hysterically. It's easier to read the type.
