Lovely Lilacs

Today we went to the lilac festival to look at the lilacs, snap a few pictures, and walk around.  Teagan didn't nap great this morning so we were trying to hurry before she was too exhausted.  By the time we got to taking the pictures it was starting to rain :(  We snapped quick before it poured - the result as you can see was:

a) a cute picture of T where my arms look fat

b) a cute picture of T

c) T being silly

d) a cute picture of T in front of some tulips with no pants on (diaper change then a hungry baby who didn't want to wait for pants which led to an interrupted feeding because pictures needed to be taken before it rained, hence, no pants)

e) Teagan squatting in front of tulips - at least while taking these pictures I could hear people oooh-ing and ahhh-ing over my cute kid as they walked by, and 

f) a picture of Matt and T where T is making a face

These were literally the best 5 pictures of the bunch (of 85) so I was a little bummed.  We had a brisk, wet walk back to the car, and T fell asleep within minutes on our way home.

Also, as we were walking down one of the paths at the festival, I looked up to see Chuck Schumer walking towards me.  Yes, the NY Senator was walking towards me.  He walked up to me and shook my hand, then asked "who is this cute little one?" to which I answered "this is my daughter Teagan".  He told me his chief of staff just had a Teagan.  Then he shook Matt's hand and walked away.  We figured he must have been in the parade.  He looked a little over dressed in his suit (especially on this 75 degree day) but it was a random, fun encounter none the less.
