That's awesome.<BR/><BR/>You know, I've never had a Margarita. What am I missing? Is there Tequila in a Margarita? 'Cause I just can't drink Tequila, because of a long and puke-filled night in high school in which I ate the worm.<BR/><BR/>And Nana. 92, hip hair and active. And still married. DANG.

My (nearly) 18 month-old child had her bottle at the July 4th barbecue today, and I didn't care. She wasn't screaming "Ba! Ba! Ba!" so I could drink my margaritas in peace.<BR/><BR/>(Jose Cuervo Golden Margaritas - the usual ingredients plus Grand Marnier.)<BR/><BR/>Sounds like a wonderful weekend!

Of course, now that she's using the sippy cup, the next battle will be to get her to drink from anything else (we're going through that battle right now). But she's got plenty of time for that.<BR/><BR/>Those were some mighty cute pictures as well. I love the one of her playing with her cousin.
