My daughter just turned 14 months and she’s so fun! Starting to walk and talk. She says dada all the time. It’s just amazing. I’m looking for suggestions on things to do together. The weather is terrible so we are mostly in the house. She doesn’t really like to read but she loves it when we make up stories and do voices with her stuffed animals. She also loves playing with blocks and stacking toys.
