Hey Cuz
Isaac's New England cousins are laugh riots every time we hang out, but I was afraid that the age difference between the Ohio cousins and Isaac would make him a little shy. I should have known better. Here is Isaac playing with Griffin and Olivia in front of a small audience consisting of his grandparents, his mom and Dad, his great grandparents, his great Aunt Barbara and Uncle David, his first cousin (once removed, to be technical) Lisa, and his second cousins Griffin and Olivia:
It was about 4 hours after we got off of the plane and as you can see he was really shy and wary of new people. Or not.
Here is a picture of Olivia and Isaac, right after he finished product testing my flashlight:
A few days later Isaac met his cousin Ayden, who came over with his Maw. Here are the cousins having a toy summit:
Ayden was absolutely sweet with Isaac, being very gentle and patient, almost like he had a bedside manner. He is such a kind little kid. It makes me think he is going to be a surgeon for Doctors without Borders or something. It might be odd, though, when he ships out to a war zone with his Grandpa trailing behind him.
We tried to get a picture of all of the cousins on the couch but the ones I took were uniformly terrible (everyone looked possessed). Here is a really nice picture of Isaac and Olivia (who, Nanna claims, correctly, is a baby hog, but then again, all the Pucketts are):
Isaac also got to meet his cousins (once removed) Nicole, Lisa, and David. I am glad he got to meet everyone and now he can officially tell all of his friends at Goddard School that he has the most bad ass cousin of them all. I originally wrote that thinking of Little David, but Griffin is a pretty big bad ass, too. There needs to be some way of calculating bad ass-ery, a formula that can convert broken bones into concussions. But then again, there is nothing less bad ass than a formula to figure out how bad ass you are. If you have to figure it out, you aren't one.
