Genes

Thanks mom! I have terrible 2nd and 3rd toes. They aren't exactly webbed toes but almost. I have always described them as two trees sharing one trunk. I was complaining about them to mom a couple of months ago and then I looked down at her toes and she had them too! She said she never realized they were funny while I have been traumatized my whole life over mine. It's amazing I regularly display them via my Birkenstocks. A few minutes later we looked at Sydney's toes and lucky her, she has them too.

Mom said I shouldn't say anything about them since we don't want her to be self-conscious but forget that! Not only will I make her aware that she has "special toes" but I am now sharing them for all the world to see.

This post was everything I'd hoped it would be ever since I heard about this trait a few months ago. :)

Why did grandma and mom get a pedicure first and Sydney didnt?

Unfair for sure

I think they are all great toes! Auntie Em has a "special" pinky toe.

BABY TOES ARE SO CUTE!! I think you have the strongest case of tree trunk sharing toes, Kim.

Ah, the gene pool... at least you don't have a squint eye...

I have the same toes. (picture not needed)

Anyway, my husband teases me and says at least I can swim fast (since they are webbed).

I don't think your toes are all that bad KT! But I do see the 2nd toe trait in all 3 pics. I LOVE IT!!!
