Valentine's Day Recap

My, how a year has changed things.

Last valentine's day, we had a 9:45 reservation at Bibiana, a hip, then-new restaurant downtown. We had squid ink pasta and pork belly. Newly pregnant, I sniffed Bryan's wine in frustrated jealousy.

This year, it was burgers, fries, and shakes. We were home by 8:00. But man, oh man, what a difference a year makes. Valentine's day was so much better with Adelaide.

I mean, look at this face!

{Thanks, Peggy, for the Valentine's Day outfit!}

And how much cuter is Bryan when he is holding Adelaide?!

And while our dinner was far less sophisticated than last year, the burgers, fries, and shakes were unbelievable. We went to Good Stuff Eatery on Capitol Hill, Spike Mendelsohn's {Top Chef} restaurant. Bryan and I agreed that the toasted marshmallow milkshake may be the best milkshake on the planet. You can check out the menu here. {I had the Prez Obama Burger.}

We came home to many wonderful valentines. Thanks, all! Here, Adelaide is reading her card from Grandma and Grandpa Melloy. {Yes, she's reading. She's very advanced.}

Happy belated Valentine's Day!
