    It's been a while since I've had to think about it, what're some great ideas for birthday and Christmas? She's an adorable wee one, I just don't know!

    Go to walmart.com and search by age.

    I was hoping for more personal opinions, since some of you have babies.. Things that get overlooked, special things, perhaps things that don't have age listed, personal things.. But thanks for the suggestion.

    I guess there's always an Elmo. That'd be special. ;-)

    Have you considered a beautiful jewelry box, and for each holiday forth, you could put something in it for her?

    My dd just turned one and we got her a little pot and spoon play thing she loves it. And anything she can climb on and ride around is always a big hit. Dolls are big at this age they love to poke the eyes. Stuffed animals the bigger the better lol.
    not my chair, not my problem

    @rap422 that's a wonderful idea, I was thinking about a nice piece of jewelry for her to be given when she's older, but I know it could get lost or broken by then. Good idea!
    @onmylastnerve I have never, ever bought a doll, lol but sounds like that could be a good "right now" gift!

    @giggity we gave our daughter an engraved locket for her first birthday, it's something she'll grow up and appreciate.

    We got her a squishy chair with one of her favorite characters on it so she can sit and draw or play with her toys
