Choose your battles

We descended into the city for Isaac's cousins birthday yesterday and found ourselves at one of the quentissential American birthday parties with 4 dozen kids running around hosting their own Kentucky Derby, and pouncing on a dozen blow up amusement toys.

After the initial shock wore off from getting pounced by kids twice his age, Isaac found someone to play with.

(I am not sure if it counts as someone, since it is a plastic inanimate object, but he and his new friend were inseparable the entire party.)

Realizing that in life and especially with a toddler, you have to choose your battles, when it came time for the group photo, we found a good compromise.
