What drives me crazy is when my boyfriend walks barefoot through my apt and then gets in the bed. I think it has to do with the fact that I'm horrible at vacuuming and because there's no "no shoe rule", I'm Kari @ Oh, For The Love Of Storieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239797385319259068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225081154758813845.post-45251589257350144332015-05-20T13:38:28.376-07:002015-05-20T13:38:28.376-07:00We do not wear shoes in our house...never have.

If were wall to wall carpet it might be a different story.

Not because we care about the floors (unless it's raining), but because we both hate wearing shoes or pants when we don't have to. Haha! PS.

The thought of crawling babies on dirty floors was not appealing. I ended up buying a sign for the front door that says: "Since little fingers touch our floor, please remove your shoes at the door." I've found that this has helped enforce the policy better than me requesting people to take their shoes off :-)NONSuperwomanhttp://differentkindsofhappy.squarespace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225081154758813845.post-10394356435556105922015-05-12T15:34:00.885-07:002015-05-12T15:34:00.885-07:00I was ALL about no shoes indoors and then we got o...I was ALL about no shoes indoors and then we got our first dog.
