She might have Fibular Hemimelia (November 2011 - 4 months old)

We went to the Orthopedics on Thursday for a little check-up to get some questions answered.  Looks like everything is looking good! We were worried about a few things like the fact that her ex-club foot is smaller than the other foot.  Apparently it's pretty normal for the club foot to be about a half a size smaller than the other foot.  He said sometimes it can happen where that foot just doesn't grow as well and it can be a lot smaller, but that's pretty rare. So we're keeping our fingers crossed! 
We've mentioned this before, but he also talked again about how sometimes when a child only has 4 toes on a foot that leg can grow to be shorter than the other, but he won't be able to tell for a while because they only do the x-ray once they're at least 6 months old. So we shall see! Anyway, we got 1 new shoe for her.lol One of her shoes was starting to get too small so we traded it out for one that's 2 sizes bigger!lol It fits her so much better now though! Here are some pictures from this morning:
Her left foot is the bigger one(on the right in the picture..)
She's getting so big!!
There's the update! We just love this little girl! She's a cutie!
