Wow! What more can happen in one week?? Last night, Mommy took Kylie to urgent care - Kylie thought it was great to have her own field trip. She kept telling Mommy she was going to the doctor's house. "Doctor listen heart, doctor look in ears, doctor look in mouth, Bye Doctor"... If only this worked as well for their well baby appointments!!
Not to be left out, Daddy took Neela to the fire station to play! We need to try these one-on-one "dates" a little more often!
Last weekend, we went to Sioux City to surprise Grandma Darlene for her 60th birthday! Her "real" birthday was on Wednesday, but the party was Saturday night. We were her lure downstairs - she was coming down to talk to her "girls" on the computer -- and we were waiting at the bottom of the stairs with Mommy, Daddy, Uncle Chuckie, Big Papa, Big Grandma, Great Grandma, Papa & Grandma Guggisberg, and a whole lot of Grandma's friends! She got so surprised, all she did was hug us until the shock disappeared! She didn't have any idea - Papa did a great job planning! Aunt Renee and Uncle David were also there - all the way from California! They came a few minutes later to give Grandma a "double surprise"! (It worked!) We got to help open the presents - any cards that said Darlene - we thought were Daddy's (we know D is for Daddy!). Neela opened most of the cards - and said "Grandma, No Money" when they were "empty!" We also got to eat CAKE! Grandma G. made a "potty cake" - and we got the cupcakes!!
Of course, we got a few gifts, too! Uncle David brought us stuffed bunnies that we will not sleep without - we think Aunt Renee was in on them, too! They also brought us books, a new summer outfit, crayons, and Pez! So much fun!! Big Papa bribed us with money, Big Grandma brought us money AND Easter hats, and Uncle Chuckie had money, too! If Grandma Darlene knew we were coming, she would have brought candy :-)
We also got to go swimming with Papa and Grandma G. at the hotel - and everyone else joined us. Here are some pictures of us in the "big pool", "hot pool" and squirting with our fish (Papa G. taught us that!)...

Kylie & Grandma G.Last Sunday, we also took family pictures with all the Estochen's -- we smiled the best when we got to take our picture with Uncle Chuckie! Can you imagine!!!
