Keep your shades closed in the day time will also keep the radiational heat out of the house, keeping it naturally cooler. on the non-sun sides, you can open them for the light.

Check and check..........
Even the shades are closed, you can still feel the heat from these big tall baby's...... that's the biggest issue IMHO, besides the kitchen with the appliances.
