This photo is to suggest that drinking with daddy isn't
the only thing she likes to do - Nanner is a scholar too. |
This post is way overdue. Or maybe the more correct statement is that daddy has done way too much drinking with the Nanner over the past year.
In reverse order, the following depicts all of the Drinking With Daddy that the Nanner and I have enjoyed together (if you're thinking about calling DCFS, remember that I am very good at Photoshop...get-you-out-of-a-moving-traffic-violation good at photoshop)
And on a side note, the frequency of DWD days had an inverse correlation to the amount of sleep she was getting at night (notice all of the photos where I'm wearing sunglasses).

Celebrating the fact that Nanner slept 11 straight hours the night before.
**parents' note: John's Place has a great kids scene before 6:30. Definitely a place to avoid before then if you don't have kids.

Gearing up for the VDTA Christmas Party - can't show up to those things sober.

I repeat, verrry good at Photoshop. But who wouldn't turn to the bottle if they were forced to wear a monkey suit? At least she knows it's the good stuff.

Speaking of the good stuff.

Locally grown.

Daddy's local - food and drink.

Summertime in the summer time.

| w19 - Volo |
Because this is where it all started...and because the Nanner cannot survive on beer alone!
** parents' note: Volo does not have a good kids scene...unless you know the guy pouring the wine.

| w18 - Riverview Tavern |
We are at a bar watching NASCAR but no - I do not beat my child. Nanner had just woken up from a long nap in the Baby Bjorn which caused that unfortunate mark on her face.
** parents' note: Riverview has a back room especially for families - but if you're in early on a Sunday (but who goes to the bar and wants to watch NASCAR anyway?), bar seating is the way to go.

Yep - two DWD's in one weekend.

| w17 - Will's Northwoods Inn |
Home of the famous moose and bear. Buddy-bear!

| w16 - The Bad Apple |
Bad Apple was actually Nanner's grandma's idea.
** parents' note: The Bad Apple has a side room (and dedicated bathroom!) just for families with kids! A strategic decision to be sure for a restaurant in Lincoln Square.

Little known but great hangover breakfast.

| w8 - Village Tap |
My first bar-adventure with the Nanner was inspired by old St. Pat and a little peer pressure. Nanner wore green and even weathered a drop or two of Guinness on her pretty little head.

Nanner was unsure of the situation at first, but made the owner Christina promise to post the photo on the WLVL Facebook page. You can check.

Photo obviously taken before the game ended. Nanner was definitely not sleeping after Lee Evans dropped that pass.
Lots has changed in the past year. The Nanner is too big to pony up to the bar in the baby carrier anymore, but we're all looking forward to another summer in the backyard.
