Happy Birthday, Lexi!

My baby girl is TWO YEARS OLD! I simply cannot believe it. The past two years have just flown by. Lexi has so much energy and has such a personality! She is one of the funniest people I have ever known.

• She is moody these days, but what 2-yr-old isn't?
• She is speaking well, in clear sentences most of the time.
• She is all girl; loves dolls, brushing her hair, wearing bows, having her toenails painted, wearing jewelry, and playing dress-up. She LOVES wearing other people's shoes.
• She adores her brother and wants to do EVERYTHING he does, exactly the way he does it.
• She loves her Daddy and gets so excited when he gets home from work every day. She loves to go visit him at work and will run to him as fast as she can and then just melts in his arms.
• When she's sick, she wants Mommy.
• She eats well with a fork and does NOT want ANY help when it comes to eating.
• She loves The Fresh Beat Band, The Backyardigans, Dora the Explorer, Go Diego Go, and most recently, The Little Mermaid.
• She can (and has been able to for a while) count to 12 (random, I know) and say her ABCs. She also sings Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, Jesus Loves Me, Jesus Loves the Little Children, Happy Birthday, and most of the songs on my iPod and her VeggieTales CDs.
• She loves to swim. She's absolutely fearless of the water. Thank goodness for puddle jumpers, which allow her to swim without any help from ANYONE (Heaven forbid!). Seriously- it's the greatest floatie ever.
