My Favorite 2-year Old

I finally saw my favorite 2-year-old, 3-year-old and 6-year-old (Gus, David and Betsy) last Sunday after my family went to the Seahawks game. I live across the street from the Kessler/Stonich household and was their nanny all of last year. It is so fun to think back at all of the many, many memories I had with their family. Some of my favorites are definitely: 
  1. Daily double stroller rides up the hill to school with the 2 boys and Betsy in it, 1 dog on a leash and a cup of coffee.
  2. Singing made up songs to Gus so he would fall asleep
  3. Watching the kids check the advent calendar every morning during Christmas time
  4. Halloween; angel, and kitten-firefighter, so wonderful.
  5. Curious George with "eggies" for breakfast.
  6. Taking David and Gus to the pumpkin patch with his preschool class, picking out a pumpkin for Sheepy
  7. Gus playing soccer, bouncy house, ruling the open gym for tots, library read alouds, lots and lots of treats at Zoka's
  8. Seeing the kiddos ski at Alpental, while Gus slept on my back
  9. Betsy losing her teeth, and creating fake teeth to fool the tooth fairy
  10. Lots of play dough, potions, cookies, and messes in the kitchenMany trips to the museum of flight-- I think one of them will be involved with aviation
  11. Gus and Betsy's day at Owijimaya
  12. Swim lessons, making popsicles, watching baseball during dinner (usually not that interesting for kids unless we were talking about Gigi and the Phillies) 
  13. Snow days, windy rainy days running home from school, sunny hot water balloon days
So much fun. When I think about family I will always treasure what I experienced with them as a cohesive and solid unit. I sure do miss them!! <3 <3 <3
