My daughter (exactly the same age) is similarly obsessed.</p> <p>My 26 month old daughter is getting a set of Keith Haring wall decals. I have a Keith Haring tattoo which she just loves to see, and wants one for herself. I've told her that she can have one for her walls, which seemed to satisfy her. She's going to be so excited. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-isare-your-los-and-what-are-you-getting-them#post-1262025 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 12:15:40 +0000 T-Mom 1262025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD (5 yr): Dollhouse furniture and a robe, telling time book with little clock<br /> DS (2yr): jellycat bear, book, Thomas the Train PJs </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-isare-your-los-and-what-are-you-getting-them#post-1261947 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 12:00:19 +0000 Adira 1261947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Oh, I know!!!

Magna-tiles for my toddler and not buying anything for the baby. We already have so many toys and books.
