Everyone knows Meghan first taste of Beer was Guinness on St. Patrick's Day 2005. She was just beginning the process of developing inside Angela when Ang had taken a drink off my pint, because she didn't know she was pregnant yet. At this point Meghan is 4 months old and beginning to Teethe. I'm not sure exactly how to spell that, but she is beginning to grow teeth. In any case Angela finally had enough of the new crank pot we call our daughter on Sunday during our Soprano's Party, where she was non stop crying for some time. Ang brought her down to the Bar and walked behind it, Handed Meghan to me, and said "Do it, Just Do it and get it over with." I looked at her, not understanding what she wanted me to do when she explained that Meghan wouldn't stop crying and she was sure she was teething. So I did it, I put my pinky finger in the bottle of Jameson Irish Whiskey shook off the excess and rubbed Meghan's gums with it. I personally thought she was gonna scream bloody murder. However, in retrospect I realize she is half me. Meghan put on a smile from ear to ear and actually began massaging her gums across my finger. This made me so proud in one way, and so scared in another.
To make a long story short... Here's the result.
Now Please don't give me the lecture about how I am turning my kid into a drunk, or blah blah blah, I did what I thought would ease my baby's pain and I am ok with that. If you are not, then go have a kid of your own and resolve this issue your way.
