I second the Stephen Joseph suggestion. Elijah has the construction-themed one, and we have loved it. I didn’t like their lunchboxes, though. Tip: get one that can go in the washing machine!!! His milk could leak, and if you just have a lunchbox that is supposed to be cleaned with a damp washcloth, then you’re going to end up trashing the lunchbox for a washable one. I speak from experience. Nasty sour milk. Gag.

Pottery Barn Kids has super cute ones – I got a rocket one for Liam for his birthday. Buybuybaby.com has great ones too that are cheaper.

And do y’all have a convertible crib? I hear it’s better to go ahead and skip the toddler bed (assuming you don’t have a convertible crib) and just buy a twin or full size mattress for toddlers because it’s one less thing to buy later. It seems like a toddler bed lasts about a year, which may just not be worth it.

Stephen Joseph has adorable quilted backpacks for toddlers! I just ordered this one for my little boy who is about a week older than Jansen, its just a tad bit too big imo but it’s still a small backpack and I LOVE it! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002MAF5F6/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00

I found Amelia’s backpack at Walgreens. It was in the toy aisle filled with some toys, Tinker Bell. So you could try in toy aisles in stores too? And toddler beds do take crib sheets. I would also recommend not a comforter, as Amelia only has liked the smaller blankets and quilts she already had.
Have a happy and fun weekend!

I got Topher’s toddler bedding set from Amazon. He still doesn’t like to be covered so the sheet and comfortor were kind of a waste of money, though – he always kicks his way out of them and just wraps himself up in his Blankie. We used Amazon for his backpack too

Toddler beds use crib mattresses, so you use crib sheets. Have a great weekend!

Yeah, I had heard his name and seen his picture, and then I saw an interview with him where they were in a closet that was the size of my bedroom and he was showing the reporter all his watches and grills (grills? Does he know he’s not a rapper?) and shoes. It was kind of ridiculous.

Plus if you’re going to talk as much smack as he has, you should really actually win some gold medals. Just saying.
