Big Night Out

Baby ate dinner at a fancy restaurant tonight – not something she does on a regular basis. She ate some of the crab cake appetizer. Then she had bread with butter, filet mignon and smashed potatoes. Between courses, she stood on the booth bench next to her mom and made friends with the wait staff and fellow restaurant patrons. Though she exclaimed a handful of times in a way that may not have contributed to the serenity of people at the other tables, she was generally docile and sweet – especially for someone in the midst of getting her first two molars.
