Dr. Dobbs -- new brace and shoes

Have any of you who have Dr. Dobbs new brace and shoes experienced

slipping or your baby getting out of the shoes? Sammy quickly

adjusted to the new brace and new style shoes -- no sores at all, no

pressure on his still healing sores either; but he also quickly

learned that if he holds one leg still and braces it against the floor

(or whatever he is laying on) that he can kick the other leg HARD and

gradually slide his foot out of the shoe. It's actually pretty funny

to watch. I spoke to Dr. Dobbs and the orthotics guy today and they

said as far as they know, no one has had this problem with the new

shoes because of the insert which is molded to the shape of the baby's

foot. I guess Sammy is just really flexible. Anyway, they are going

to try to modify the straps to hold his foot better but I just

wondered if anyone had any suggestions (we've tried the socks w/

rubber grippers e.g. Old Navy).

Oh and p.s. I forgot to take pictures of his brace this weekend but I

will still try to get some good ones to put on the CFPics site.

Thanks,
