Cathy's Crea Wedding Shower

After a morning spent at the Crea Farm, we headed in to the cities for Cathy's Crea Wedding Shower.  The girls and I attended the shower upstairs at Aunt Jeanne's house, while Brad and Brendan played video games with Matthew in their basement until the shower was over.  After feeding Emily, she settled right down and slept in her car seat for the entire shower, leaving me free to look after Megan, eat and visit.  We had a little incident where, once I got my plate of food, Megan crawled on my lap and told me her tummy felt funny, and then proceeded to throw up strawberry punch all over herself (luckily, I had another outfit packed for her!)  Turns out my mom had given her a couple glasses of punch, Liz had given her a couple glasses of punch, etc. until she had seven glasses and her little tummy couldn't take it.  After that excitement, we had a nice, low-key shower where Megan helped Zizzi Cathy open her gifts.  After the shower we headed back to Montevideo. One shower down, one more to go!
