She weighs approximately 20 pounds and is really long (I'll call it "tall" once she learns to stand up).
Eileen is wearing Size 9-12 month clothes. She's definitely in 9 month clothes, and can wear a few of her size 12 month clothes.

| Eileen's dress was designed by my Aunt Teresa, who used to design baby clothes. |
Eileen can sit by herself. She can get onto her hands and knees, but hasn't quite started crawling.
She began eating solids a little over a week ago. So far, she has had rice cereal, green beans, and sweet potatoes.
When you feed her, Eileen grabs the spoon and puts it into her own mouth. She needs a little more practice to hone this skill, but she's an enthusiastic eater.
 |
| Here, my mom and I were feeding Eileen with two spoons because she couldn't get enough to eat fast enough with just one spoon. |
Eileen has begun to exhibit some separation anxiety- she cries whenever Mommy leaves the room. Once I am gone, she usually calms down and is her normal, happy self. I'm flattered the Eileen loves me so, but I think that everyone is ready for this stage to pass.

| "You're going WHERE?" |
Eileen loves her toys and often sits on her playmat and plays by herself.

There are two little teeth just below her gums. They haven't come in yet, but we're absolutely in the middle of "teething". We have been for some time.
Eileen loves bathtime- she likes to splash in her tub and make a huge mess.

| Bathtime! |
Eileen has learned to perform for the camera. When you have the camera out and say "Cheese!", Eileen looks at you and smiles.
She is such a ham.
