The new AFO's are awesome! That is so cool that they articulate. Maybe it will be easier for walking with his walker. Also, if his shoes weren't so long, maybe he would be able to walk easier as well and not drag or trip over them. I think it wouldn't frustrate him as much and maybe he'd be willing to try more or not be soooo tired when he was finished with therapy 🤔 Have a great day family! 🌞
Yay! Leon looked great in those new braces! And I’m glad that he likes them now.
?
I work in a special needs preschool and have experienced both Billy brand and Plae brand shoes with AFOs! I love the simplicity of Billy and the added perk of independence with the zipper. Sometimes we clip a key ring to the zipper for a little extra something for the kids to hold and pull. Plae brand are durable, I've seen pairs last a whole school year, have a flexible sole and have grippy tabs on the velco for independence.
Leon's AFO's are so cool and so are his new sneakers. When I had to get my son braces I always had to buy him wide width(EEEE) as well. He has wide feet to begin with so add the braces he needed EEEE width. He is 6"2 yet his shoe size was only and 81/2. Leon is going to rock those braces. You go Leon!!
Now those are great AFOs! I wish they were like that when I was younger. I had articulated ones and then transitioned to the one piece. We would get a binder of options for designs. You may want to look into Reeboks for shoes. They are AFO-friendly. My designs were butterflies, tie-dyes and now they’re very simple.
They look great more comfortable also love his shoes too cool 😎
I like that we are seeing another side of Leon and how he hates the hospital just like most of us. What cute shoes and the braces LOOK more comfortable than the last pair. Theo with his bottle was too precious.
Hi Jody and John,
I love keeping up with your adorable family. I like to wait until I have a few videos and make a marathon of JJ Time. It drives my husband nuts because I will sit on the couch and literally watch a week's work of your blogs on a Saturday morning. Who needs Saturday Morning Cartoons when there is your lovely family to catch up with. 🤣
I thank you for sharing your journey to find shoes that fit AFO's. I was born with Clubfeet and as an adult now wear one AFO and have one of my ankles fused. The fusion was the 6th full surgery to repair my feet. I had the hardest time finding shoes that fit properly. I actually go to the Nordstrom kids' department ( I have really tiny feet from the surgeries). They really know how to fit one for shoes. I highly recommend them for finding shoes that fit with AFO's. If you order online, you can return them to the store at any time. They do not bat an eye and will go out of their way to help you find just the right shoe for what you need them for plus they carry the Billy shoes. I wear the Billy high tops and find them so easy to wear with my AFO. I would wait though until the next pair of shoes for Leon because they are working on coming out with a line that is wide.
As a special needs teacher, I have told everyone about the Billy shoes for kids with CP or other developmental delays. The zipper promotes independence. Sorry for the wordiness but you guys are just so awesome that I had to share my experience finding shoes for AFOs. You guys make me smile.

This is awesome & super exciting! Leon has such a sweet personality, always smiling & laughing 😃 (( I have been binging your channel & i just looove little Leon 💙 ))
i also think your boys are gonna be BEST BUDS,, you can already see a bond ; i think baby bro is gonna wanna copy his cool older brother in everything, INCLUDING HIS NIFTY AFO's!! 💙💙💙
I love you guys and Leon and Theo.
How y'all doing? I'm so happy for Leon! I just love y'all. He will surely be ready now!! I love their smiles!! 💙💙💙
Havent even watched the video yet but happy for him! 😊
I love the videos you come out with I love JJ time so much keep coming out with videos Leon and Theo are getting so big. ❤
I like loen new UFO they look so cute
You at Shriners? I was really impressed there with the beautiful outside waiting areas and the way the walls were painted. Leo is growing so fast and still making me smile and want to squeeze him.
Aww little Theo is starting to hold his own bottle. I'm glad that Leon likes his new braces, they are cool. If you had a cricut machine John could design more cars or trucks on the computer to put on Leon's braces.
What a beautiful family love all of your videos and I just noticed that leon an theo had a couple of letters in there names that is so adorable
Cute. Look good. God bless. The kids are getting so big
Leon’s new AFO”s look much more comfortable! New Balance comes in widths... look for an “outlet” store.
How exciting for Leon. Hope they help when walks with walker. Hav a good nite🌛
Love Leon’s new braces there so cool John is so extra love ur videos
Felt so bad to see Leon upset to go to Dr but he found out it was all good!
Yes I think the way those move will be great for him. He’ll have to show off his new walking skills with us!
Nice!! Jody you always amaze me. Your so in tune with Leon even though be's nonverbal.
Love the new AFOS
Love the new braces and shoes-so happy for anything that helps Leon in anyway -Leon was so precious -the way he was looking at John beside the car-he has such beautiful and loving eyes -not to mention that contagious smile that lights up everywhere he goes-and Theo working in holding his bottle is too sweet -both boys are the biggest sweethearts ever-it’s so funny when you and John kiddingly go back and forth about something -such as johns new shoes -actually it’s quite cute-take care -thanks for sharing -my love and prayers always -🥰🙏💗
That's awesome 😉 Leon will be walking soon, he's getting so big and great big brother. Love you guy's ❤
I swear by Billy's for my daughters AFOs! You can order them off Amazon and that way it will be easy to return them if they are the wrong size! My daughter just got new AFOs too and I had to return a pair of Billy's because I went a size to big :)
oh wow. i didn’t even know Puma made wide shoes! Pumas are notoriously narrow, so that’s good + good to know! :0)
Leon’s new braces look awesome. Glad John solved his shoe problem. 😂😂😂
Yay!! Good for you Leon!!
Awww leon is so cute bless him 💙💙
You look amazing in your new braces Leon hopefully they will be a lot better for you
Awsome love watch your family
Love Leon’s hair!
We. Love. Baby. Theo. So cute. Love. So. So. So. So. Much. We. Love. JJ time. Love. Your. TH-cam channel. Video. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You're new braces and trainers are awesome Leon. Hmmm let's get this right Daddy will fasten Leon's laces on his trainers but not on his own. I think Daddy was jealous and that's why he got the self lacing trainers 😉 Little Theo is growing up so fast. Stay well and stay blessed. Sending love to you all. 😘
God bless this family amen
Cool looking braces leon!
❤
I think New Balance is known for all their shoes being made wider than other brands. I've known so many people over the years that only wear NB for that very reason. Leon's looking awesome in his new kicks. Can you explain (only if you want to) why Leon has to wear braces and what they're hoping to accomplish by wearing them? I know you explained his foot tilting in, but was just wondering what, overall, doctors are hoping to accomplish after Leon wears the braces. Thanks.
Just put car stickers on them
I feel John should get Leon and Theo each a pair of self lacing shoes !
You guys are the best ever crack me up
They look awesome
Don’t know if it didn’t send or what happened but my sweet son is turning 11 and would love a birthday shout out from our favorite you tubers! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Brantlei 💕

I can't believe that Jonh doesn't wear his self-lace sneakers in this video. Why?
billy shoes are awesome. my daughter wears them.
It's my birthday
Thanks for sharing!!!! LOL Bougee John!!!!! LOL
Cute video
Try the Keen shoes too. Great for the wide feet.
Other brands you can look for are plae, and tshukhosi shoes brands I have had luck with and stride rite has specific ones for Afo.
I wear New balance Sneakers too I get fitted for my new balance Sneakers to make sure they fit right with my ankle braces as well too
They were dressed like twins today!
My nephew had AFO's.. we always called the little "pinch protector piece" The Pringle piece! Lol cuz it looks like a Pringle chip! Haha
Alyssa hates hospitals so much she won't even go visit others in the hospital. Bless him. it is so cool that they give you shoes. We don't get shoes with ours. Watch that articulation when you are taking them on and off. It will pinch the sh** out of you! I get Alyssa Billy shoes one size up, and most of the time Sketchers. I will have to find some extra wide ones. Alyssa was so excited to see Theo holding his own bottle.
I just got a new pair of shoes yesterday afternoon
I like the braces john you still wearing your new shoes
On time 😀
Try Billy's shoes...made to fit with orthopedics and easy to get on
