Ileana Aguirre

I came home last night to find Gabe and Isaac building lego houses in my living room. Matt said that they were pretending that they were daddies with imaginary mothers, getting their houses ready for their family and telling each other "Get that out of the house, it's not safe for the baby!" I asked Gabe if they had met Ileana. He grinned and nodded, and Isaac added "She came OUT!" When I asked how big she was, Gabe spread his arms wide, indicating that Ileana was at least 3 feet tall. When I asked how much hair she has, he pinched his fingers together and said that it was no color at all.

Obviously, we were going to have to meet her ourselves, so we packed them in the car and drove to the Eliot.

Gabe wasn't as annoyed as this picture indicates... I think he was watching tv.

She is beautiful. She looks like Gabe when at rest, but when she starts squirming and rooting and making faces, she looks like Isaac. She does have very long skinny legs, but they're not quite 2 feet long, and her hair is a dark brown, despite what her brother says.
