These ten-month olds (Theo, Del, Julian and Paxton) are having so much fun slurping on plastic toys and touching one another’s toes that they don’t realize their moms are having fun too.
Ingredients for a successful Margarita Mommies Group:
- Shady backyard on a nice, warm day
- Kiddie Pool with a couple inches of water
- Mom-sized lawn chairs with toes dipping in the water
- Plastic pitcher of margaritas
- Plastic cups
- Splashing babies (diapers optional) — keep them in the shade or slather heavily with sunscreen before the party starts!
- Daddies available to pick up mommy and baby afterward
This was suggested by my hairdresser as an awesome way to enjoy the summer!

I love this idea - a few girls I met at gymboree and i just formed a playgroup called bagel mamas on friday mornings - i love it but to be honest - margaritas are more my style - i will have to suggest a special event soon
thanks for the great thought

Oh I am so doing this! I just found your website from mamac-ta.com and I’m going to read the rest now but I love that first idea!
Are you serious? Getting drunk or even a little tipsy while watching a child is completely irresponsible. I’m glad that I don’t find watching my son is such a burden that I need alcohol to help me get through my days.
I didn’t mean to create such a buzz. You could also have lemonade or ice water and it would still be fun… and/or a hot lifeguard or babysitter standing by.
We started a Mama’s Group from our Prenatal Yoga class. We’ve been meeting weekly since before their births. We’ve already had a few pool parties, this summer. It’s the way to go. Socialize and have fun!
As for alcohol, Dad-Guy - why are you assuming that the Mommas would be getting Tipsy or Drunk? Have you never had fun? And, shame on you to even reference that we “need” alcohol, that we’re irresponsible and that the kids are a “burden.” Your comments are a disgrace, not fun and - You’re not invited to any of our Momma Parties!!!! (heehhheeeee).
Love, all of the Mom’s who think that celebrating our children’s lives and our friendships is beautiful, amazing and almost perfect - with or without a Margarita. Cheers!
Yeah, Nate’s dad, you suck! You are probably not the one home with Nate ALL DAY EVERY DAY. Moms need to feel a little bad while they are being moms or they go crazy.
Love it! I’m going to do this with my neighborhood mommies, that way they can walk home if needed!!!
Nate’s dad is lame!
