Today Alex and Esther took Kyle and Owen to Dorney Park (click here). If you read this blog you know that Alex is the boys' babysitter/nanny. She's caring for them 30+ hours per week this summer while they are out of daycare. She's the best. Esther is a graduate student at Lehigh, she is Alex's roommate and very close friend. Esther spends a lot of time with K & O when they're with Alex, and they know her well. Today it was super hot here (high 90s, and humid). Alex thought it would be fun to take the boys to Dorney and she convinced Esther to go with them. The four of them had a fun and special day together. I think they spent almost the entire time in the "Wildwater Kingdom" part. The boys clearly had a blast. They were totally exhausted when they got home. They had a quick swim, ate supper, and were sound asleep just a bit past 7:00. Today Alex took our camera with them. In the photos Alex has on brown sunglasses; Esther has white sunglasses; Kyle is wearing a blue swimsuit; Owen is wearing a red swimsuit. I love it that my boys have Alex and Esther in their lives.

Alex and the boys -- the best nanny ever!

I so know what you mean. I love our au pair and so do the girls. We really think of her more as our daughter (grown) and the girls big sister. She is so unbelievable with them. You are lucky to have someone you can trust with your little angels. She truly loves them.
It looks like K, O, and Alex have a mutual admiration for each other! How awesome for everyone! A year after leaving us as a nanny, our 'nanny' still hangs out with us - she will always be a part of our lives. Those boys know how to live it up!
Those kids are definitely having a better summer than me! (And that's a very good thing.)
