We decided to keep this one low key. Kylie has had a cold for two weeks, and Steve and I got the smaller version last week. Then Jace came home with a fever Wednesday and was not rid of it until Sunday morning. So any hopes we had of doing something special for the holiday were overridden with our desire to all get well. No great loss- it was too hot to do much of anything.
We did take Jace to Toy Story 3. It will be a while till we take him back to a movie. He loved the first two, and while I have to say the 3rd was not quite as good as the first two, if this movie did not keep his attention I am not sure what will. We only had to threaten to leave once, but he was restless the whole movie.
So for the 4th, we blew up the small pool in the backyard, turned on a sprinkler and grilled some burgers. Jace enjoyed eating outside, and asked to do it again today, but it was just too darn hot. Because Jace was feeling better, Steve decided to take him to the Pearland fireworks. Kylie and I stayed home, since it was way past her bedtime. Well between her waking up every 30 minutes from our neighbors illegally setting off fireworks (note the annoyance in my voice), to Kayla frantically pacing, it was not the most relaxing night for me. But it sounded like Jace had fun. Maybe next year we all can go, and we will give Kayla a sedative.
I finally got some pics where you can see Kylie's two little bottom teeth. She drooled a lot today and was chewing on everything so maybe she might get some more before her first birthday, which is only two weeks away. She is also starting to get a hang of the walking thing a little more. She is up to about 10 steps before she crashes. She is not walking for lack of trying- she loves to try. I tried to get it on video, but it was a jinx- maybe next week she will be more consistent.
