Summer is about eating popsicles right?

Summer Treats
Rain Rain Go Away!!!
Well, if I can’t change the weather, then I’m going to use it to my advantage which means try to take cute pictures of Rilyn playing in the rain! (Ella was napping). She LOVED splashing around and really didn’t want her umbrella. Enjoy!
Once again daddy tried to get the girls to learn to swim to no avail. We don’t want to scar them so we are giving up this summer and just letting them swim on ‘their terms’ in the water (walking around in ankle deep water and splashing around.) Oh well!
So our girls won’t be Olympian swimmers, but on the bright side, maybe our girls will have a future in modeling….;-)
Thanks to Yuna Suh for letting us crash at her ‘pad’ and borrowing the infinity pool-great view!
Daddy makes Ella swim
Daddy, I don’t want to be by myself!!
Please don’t let me go!!
Must swim to stay alive!
Ella just keep your head up!
Hello World!
As promised, here is Chapter 1 of Ella’s first year. Better late than never…right?

Rilyn’s First Haircut
Well, finally at age 3, she has gotten her first haircut! We went to a fun place called Snip-Its. She did great and looks so cute (and older) with her new bob.
July 7th Neighborhood Parade
So, we had a neighborhood parade today and mommy ‘pimped our ride’. 😉 They had judges to look at our wagons and we won “Coolest Ride”! (Mommy got a Target gift certificate-whoopee. I got a gold medallion!!!) Mom’s note: Yes, they were the 5 cent plastic ones. We followed a fire truck as we paraded around our neighborhood pool/clubhouse. Then we bounced in bounce houses and ate barbeque. What a fun morning with mommy and grandma. We miss daddy, we’ll see him tomorrow night! Have a safe flight daddy!
July 4th
We had our 3rd annual July 4th barbeque/pool party at my parents house. We somehow managed to get a group shot of the kiddos this year. From L to R: Mason Rice, Anna Richardson, Ella Paquette, Rilyn Paquette, Ella Douglass, Cole Richardson, and Dasan Hill.
Happy July!
Can you believe it is already July?! Rilyn and Ella got matching dolly outfits with their 4th of July dresses from Grandma so they were eager to pose for the camera today. Rilyn’s newest quips: (I told Rilyn earlier that day that we could go to the pool after she went poopoo in the potty. She was having an upset tummy that day.) She prayed before her nap, “Dear Father, please let me go diarrhea so I can go swimming at the pool today, Amen.”
Grandma asked Rilyn who lived at Disneyland. “I know,” Rilyn said, “God!”
Rilyn is ALWAYS talking. If there is a brief moment of silence, Rilyn has to talk. “Mom,” she says, “I don’t know what to say.” 😉
