Festival in the Park

This morning we took Spud downtown to Freedom Park to check out the annual Festival in the Park. The last time we were there was on Spud's original "due date", April 17th (He showed up a week later, on the 24th). We were out for a vigorous walkabout in an attempt to get things moving and get the baby launched.

We took a picture of Claire that day, with a locomotive for scale.



We took another picture today. Turns out she had one of THESE in her belly.



The Festival is a stroller-friendly walk around the lake, with a multitude of booths hawking arts, crafts, and bad/expensive food.



The food is the usual fair fare. Fried, mostly. It leaves you feeling sullied and unusual.



Claire got us a nice fried and sugar-encrusted funnel cake. Yum. But I had at least 2 heart attacks later in the day.





Mmmmm. Funnel cake!

As we walked around and perused the crafts, we made a few gratuitous breast-feeding jokes.



Spud thought they were hilarious.
