Before even something moves on the side that it is growing towards a wing, there has to be many mutations guided by natural selection, but this is not going to happen, because it's not advantageous. There is nothing beneficial of something sticking out of the side that does nothing.
Again, just because YOU cannot think of a way it developed, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
As I said, evolution is an established fact as certain as gravity. So they did evolve, whether you can picture it or not. Have you ever actually looked into the theories of how wings could have developed? It's uncertain, but there's three or four plausible ideas.
