-She LOVES showering. She loves to just stand under the water and let it run all down her. She is a major water hog. Whenever she knows that Sean or I are going to shower she starts taking off her clothes and bagging to get it too. I'm not sure when we're going to break that habit...
-Her favorite song right now is "Jesus wants me for a sunbeam." She calls it "bee bee." It has over 120 plays on our itunes. Some of her other favorites include: "Popcorn popping," "Once there was a snowman," "If you're happy and you know it," "Head, shoulders, knees and toes," and "Ring around the rosie."
-Lexi is learning her colors. She can say: green, blue, yellow and red. She gets green right the most. I think it must be her favorite. She says "bing" for "green." It's so cute.
-Lexi is also starting to recognize some letters. She gets "E" and "O" right the most. But she also knows: A, I, U and V pretty well.
-And just yesterday I realized that she can count to 3 on her own. I was starting to count as a warning before she went to time out (she likes to hit). I said "one" and she said, "two, three." What a smart girl!
-When Lexi see my belly, she'll run to it and kiss it and say "Oh!" It's so adorable. I just hope she stops doing that when her sister is born.
-Lexi LOVES to rough house. One of her absolute favorite things to do is crawl around on the floor with Sean and get chased and growl at each other. It's cute and probably part of the reason that she is a little bully.
-Lexi is a major lattle tail. If we touch her she'll say, "Oh boo boo" and then I'll ask her how she got it and she'll say the name of who ever is with her, blaming it on them!
-Lexi LOVES food. She eats all day long and most nights when we're putting her to bed she'll ask to eat again. I'm not sure if she is just trying to get out of bed or if she is really hungry (which she always is). Last week she woke up at 4 in the morning and was asking to eat. It's amazing that this girl isn't any bigger!
Today we picked up Lexi's toddler bed. I debated for a long time whether to buy another crib, get a toddler bed or a twin bed. This bed was such a good on bulletin board that I had to get it. I wasn't planning on showing it to her until we moved to Albquerque but when Sean picked it up today he brought it home instead of taking it to our storage unit. So we let Lexi play with it and she loves it. She got so excited when Sean brought it home (even though she has no clue what it is). The sides and end are white picket fences. This is like every girl's dream bed. Now I just have to decide if I want to wait or let her sleep in it now...
I'm afraid if I put her in it now, she'll never sleep and just play. But I'm not sure if it would be better for her to make the change now with the change of the new baby coming or when we move and she most likely shares a room with her sister. Hmmm...

What a cutie and what a fun bed! Hopefully she will sleep and not play in such a fun bed!
Oh I would definitely put her in it now. She will need some familiar things once you move and if she moves and gets a new bed and a new sibling, it might be a lot. I'm no expert though. Sophie has been in a regular toddler bed for about a month now. And it took a week or two to get her to stay in it. Every kid is different though. Good luck! How fun!
My niece is in a toddler bed and she is 17 months! I baby sat her the other day and didn't know she was in one. It was kind of weird seeing such a little girl (baby) in a big girl bed!!! She loves it though and she does great in it. I bet Lexi can do it :-)
i put katherine in a toddler bed as soon as we moved because adam needed the crib as soon as he was born and i wanted the transition to be easier. i thought it would take a while, she was 21 months. she woke up the first 2 days because she was confused about where she was, but that was it! now she loves her big girl bed and she feels like such a big kid when she can climb into bed for the night by herself! and she doesnt even care that adam is in her old crib! i say go for it now!
took Carter about 3 weeks to get it down. and he loves that Landon is the baby now only problem is that Carter wants Landon to go to bed at the same time as him.. and it scares me that Carter will try and crawl in or throw toys at him.. so far hasn't happened but I am like glued to the baby monitor listening until I either go in Cause Landon's a baby and needs more dinner or Carter is asleep.
Cute bed!!
