Second, we have a lot to tell you about! On Thursday night, Daddy brought us home a used playhouse and set it up! We thought it was very cool - and didn't want to get out of his way while he put it together. Neela tripped on the door frame of the house, and got another bump - but it's almost gone already.
After lunch, we went swimming in the kiddy pool on our deck. Mom bought us some cool pool toys - and we loved it. We tried to throw Cy in - he didn't like it! Then, we went to Shawn and Heidi's annual 4th party with Mom, Dad, Aunt Angie and Julie. We played with lots of other kids, and then fell asleep in our pack-n-plays until the "big" explosions started. We got up - and went out on the deck to see all the fireworks. At first, re both scared - but we warmed up quickly. By the time the night was done, Kylie was clapping and saying "pretty" for every "blast", and Neela was pointing EVERYWHERE! (You can see about 10-15 fireworks displays from Shawn and Heidi's deck on the bluff in Cottage Grove!)
On Saturday, we played in our pool again (we like looking out the patio door and pointing at it until Mom takes us out there). Then, we went for a bike ride with Aunt Angie and Mom up to Coldstone Creamery. We had a kid-size strawberry AND a kid-size banana ice cream dish! Neela fell asleep on the way home - and Kylie couldn't stop talking for a few hours. Hmm... maybe we should try ice cream more often. Before we went to bed, we had to visit with Papa and Grandma Estochen on the computer so they could see our newest tricks (remember the monkey and Kylie started walking??).
On Sunday, we slept in -- it was a long night for everyone -- both of us decided to take turns waking up. After our nap, we went to Dick and Diane's BIG pool, and played for 2 hours. We were in the pool, playing with the water table, shooting water, riding he tricycle... we had so much fun, we didn't want to leave!
After supper, we played with Cy -- he licked our faces and we tried to tickle him and chase him. It was so much fun - we ran around giggling for an hour! Aunt Angie also helped Neela blow bubbles, too - even though Neela wanted to taste the bubbles! We didn't like Daddy's burritoes - they had a little too much kick for us, so we had some crackers before bed.

And, last night, we didn't want to sleep either. Kylie's getting in a pattern of waking up (and Mom and Dad are planning to stop that by letting her cry in a pack-n-play), and Neela appears to be getting her molars... let's hope for a sleep-filled night tonight!!
Before bed tonight, we played with Aunt Angie's hats and bike gear. Aunt Angie says Kylie wears her helmet just like Papa G. -- BACKWARDS!!
