ReplyDeleteEnjoy this cute stage - they grow up so fast :-)

Wow! Now I know what they mean when they say that girls learn to talk faster and have a larger vocabulary later in life as well. Ayaan's vocabulary is about half of that at 18.5 months.
ReplyDeleteYou could have posted a bigger picture... :(
