Eden turned the big one on September 14th. At her well-check she weighed in at a whopping 18 pounds, about 10th percentile and she was 50th percentile for height. People still comment on how tall she is, which I think is from her skinny body. Her most noticeable feature is her red hair. I am still in denial about her hair, but strangers stop me to tell me about others they know with beautiful red hair. She will stand out and I am sure she will learn to appreciate it. Eden has lots of words. Her current favorite is no. Nah-nah-no. And she says Charlie and then barks. She crawls to Jeff's office and says, "hi, daddy." She also says night-night, bottle, mama, and a couple of others. She is brilliant. Eden is currently on antibiotics for ear infection number 6, 3 of which have happened in the last 7 weeks. Eden is shy around new people still but will happily go to the daycare at the Y, thank goodness. She loves her brother and sisters and giggles when we pick them up from school. Very cute. She is also very fiesty. She likes to hit me and when I grab her hand and say no, she winds up for a harder hit and a scream. My others would have burst into tears. We love our Eden Grace.

Go Eden. Now is the time to establish who the boss is, and I guess you're doing a great job!
Melanie, good luck! A redhead in the family--I would never have guessed it.
She and Will would get along great together! He's a whopping 18 lbs and 30" as well!! And he's got some red in his hair too.
Can you believe they are already a year! Crazy! Happy Birthday Eden!!!
She is skinny and tall. What every girl wants. How did you get one with red hair and I never did? She's a cutie.
