Three visits with three Great Aunts

OK, two of the visits were with the same Great Aunt, but it's still impressive. Henry met three of his father's four aunts this week. So he went from 0 to 3! In two days!

We stopped over to Aunt Peg's Uncle Joe's on Sunday night for Henry to meet Peg and Aunt Mary Beth, who was visiting from Arizona. Uncle Joe (who was sleeping) and Uncle Sam (who was visiting his parents) both missed out on a Henry sighting. Dems are da breaks, I s'pose.

The following day, Henry met his Great Auntie Pammie. She's Pam (or Pamela, I guess) to the rest of the world, but Auntie Pammie to me. And to Henry. That's her on the right. She was on a business trip, travelling from Connecticut. We had extreme granola food (that's healthy food for you laymen) both Monday and Wednesday nights. North Star on Monday, Whole World on Wednesday. Pammie fed Henry on both occasions. I think it's safe to say that she's pretty taken by our little Prince.

Not that we're keeping score, but here's lineup of great aunts and uncles that haven't seen the boy yet: Joyce, Hank, Peter, Mary, Tom, Chris, Missy, Kendra, and Paula. I may have missed a couple, but I think that's the exhaustive list. I'm giving the folks that married into the family a break, because you've probably endured enough already without your nephew (or nephew-in-law) giving you a hard time. Anyway, if you know one of these folks (or are one), then raz them a bit. My Mom's sibs are pretty much off the hook, though, because we're planning a bit of a reunion-lite in Florida so that everyone can hang out and meet Henry. We missed the actual reunion because we were in no shape to travel at the end of July.
