"Can you leave the table so it looks like I ate this by myself?"

My Phamily visited from the East Coast and Mr. Pie and I took the kiddies out to Boiling Crab. They loved it. Seriously though, we got crawfish, king crab legs and Newcastle...what's not to love?
Just a Chu and his special Chau
Hair tie? Check! Bibs? Check!
Mmmmm oysters
Can you believe she ate this all by herself?
Crawfish carcasses
5 lbs of crawfish, 2 lbs of king crab legs, 1 dozen oysters and countless beers later...happiness!

Whose black Audi is that?

About a month ago, I had one of my brilliant ideas (haha) and decided to throw a baby shower for my very dear friend, Peldia (and loyal CCP blog reader!). I enlisted the help of MommaPink who so graciously offered up her beautiful home for the shower and to be my co-hostess with the mostess. Then I began the task of contacting Peldia's family to see if they were free that day and also stalked, I mean contacted, her friends on Facebook as well. The outpouring of love was very evident - everyone was waiting for the day Peldia would have her own baby shower! As you can remember, last year, about a few months before Paulita was born, Peldia had to go on bedrest. So we were only too happy to throw her a welcome party! I do have to say, we pulled it off quite nicely and with the help of many others. My only regret was that I didn't have that many photos but Peldia has great friends so there are a lot of other pictures floating around!
Once we surprised Peldia as she walked in the door, the festivities began!

A super adorable diaper cake made by my friend, Wee :)

The kiddies had fun too and cooled off in their little water section.
Cake time!
Paulita is mesmerized by her cake :)
Presents!
Very cute khaki pants for PaulitaShe kept getting stuffed animals and at one point, we couldn't see her!
There's a leg sticking out there - hahaha.
A very proud Grandma and a partied-out Paulita:)
All in all, I think everyone had a great time. It was a truly wonderful event for Peldia and we're so happy for their little family! And not to leave Paulita's Dad, Pablo out (he was golfing with Mr. Pie and PoppaPink), here they are one morning. It is the cutest picture of them EVER!

That Beetle is so big it needs it's own airport!

I love Saturdays :)
Mr. Pie made hamburgers!

Then we napped and he had quality time with his girls :)

While my boy and I had some time together too!

She didn't even say Excuse Me!

Sadly, MommaPink's Grandmother passed away last week. The wake was Thursday night so I offered to babysit my Goddaughter, MJ and BabyPink. Let me tell you, I thought I had it in the bag.
But look at these faces! Who can resist :)

Spaghetti dinner with BabyPink while MJ napped :)

We had a lot of fun and they are such sweet girls. Can't wait to see them again!
