We decided to celebrate my birthday by spending the day in Napa. The weather wasn't great, but we were excited to get outside and enjoy some nice scenery and tasty food. This was the first time I'd head up to wine country without the intention of tasting wine-- and it ended up being just as worthwhile!
Nate chose a delicious restaurant for us to dine at -- Redd. We decided to try the glazed pork belly, braised beef shortribs, and caramelized scallops. All three dishes were divine.
After our meal the rain had let up, so we decided to wander around the town of St. Helena. We popped in a few boutiques and culinary stores (Nate's favorite), and checked out a Children's boutique called Freckles. Have you ever noticed the difference in the number of baby clothes designed for girls versus boys? I'm telling you, it is remarkable how little attention baby boys get in the consumer world.
On our way out of town, we stopped by a local vineyard to take some pictures of my ever-expanding belly. Only two months to go and we'll get to meet the little guy!
