The Gloves Are Off

posted by Sarah Gill at 6:25 PM

Okay, Evan Jake. I know you have claimed to be the cutest baby ever. But given the way you've treated me lately, I have no choice but to challenge your past claims and resort to this cuteness face-off.

I've just turned six months old. That's a picture of me on the left taken just a couple of days ago. Wow, I'm really beautiful. I should be a model on a diaper box or something.

Then I went and dug up this old picture of you from when you were six months old, as seen on the right. Gosh, are you drooling on yourself? Okay, maybe I could have found a more flattering picture of you, but what would have been the fun in that?

So who's the cutest baby ever, now? I think the results speak for themselves. Sarah Gill rules and Evan Jake drools!

Happy Half Birthday, Sarah Gill!

posted by Evan Jake at 9:17 AM

Congratulations on celebrating your six-month birthday Sarah Gill! I can't believe it's been half a year since you came along and ruined everything. No, really, I'm glad you're here...sort of.

When I turned six months old, Mommy and Daddy made this awesome tribute video about me. I didn't want you to feel left out. Being the second born, I know it probably feels like you don't get all the same special treatment I did as a baby. So often you get shoved off to the side, neglected and ignored. I know that must be hard.

So I made this special tribute video for you to tell you how I really feel about having you around.

I'll Cry If I Want To

posted by Sarah Gill at 9:03 PM

I'm sorry if I ruined your party, Evan Jake. Having never had a birthday party myself, I didn't realize how important it is. It wasn't my party, but I cried anyway. Was that a problem for you?

I didn't even get to see you blow out the birthday candles on your cake. Neither did Mommy. Instead, I was upstairs in my room screaming and crying. Maybe I was just jealous that you were taking away even more attention from me than usual. And you seemed to be getting all kinds of nice gifts. Sorry if my sobbing was a downer.

It turns out I was crying for a really good reason. It was my very first ear infection!

I hope you enjoy your present from me. It's an ear infection for you, too! Who knows, maybe you gave it to me first. At least I can take some solace in knowing that you are suffering as much as I am.

Happy third birthday, Evan Jake.

What's Been Going On?

posted by Sarah Gill at 6:30 PM

Wow, it's been almost a month since anyone posted anything here. Since Evan Jake has been so delinquent in his blogging responsibilities, I thought I'd give it a shot.

OK, it's not all Evan Jake's fault the blog hasn't been updated. We did go away for a little while. We had a big trip to our Nana and Papa's house last week. That's me in the picture with Evan Jake and seven of our cousins. Nana and Papa's house was full of lots and lots of kids for Thanksgiving. So instead of getting neglected in favor of one older brother, I got neglected in favor of eight other kids. I bet Mommy and Daddy had a great time because they got to pass me off onto other people.

And when there was a really big dinner for everyone, I was the only one who didn't get to sit at the table. I got relegated to my little chair on the floor. And I didn't get any turkey either. Just a little bit of that mush in a jar.

Alright, I guess I did get a little special attention from two of my cousins who fawned over me. At least it got Mommy to notice me enough to at least take this picture.

Meanwhile, I'm trying to bust out some new tricks just to get some attention. I'm rolling, giggling, sitting up (sort of) and just being generally adorable. It seems to work some of the time. But Mommy and Daddy better be careful. If I don't get the attention I need, I might start resorting to the more barbaric tactics that Evan Jake has demonstrated. Crying and screaming. You better not put me down now!
