Baby shower gone bad!

I can't believe that this is true! I wanna know why there was a stick just lying around at the baby shower? Maybe they had a baby shower pinata, perhaps?

Pregnant woman beaten at baby shower

SPRINGFIELD, Massachusetts (AP) -- An argument at a baby shower escalated into a brawl in which one man was shot and the pregnant guest of honor was beaten with a stick, police said.

Three people were arrested after the fight, described by police as a "baby shower gone bad."

Authorities said the shooting victim, Aristotle Garcia, got into a fight with a man who is dating his ex-girlfriend. The argument, over whether the woman let their 5-year-old daughter drink beer, escalated.

When the baby shower's hostess tried to intervene, Rivas began hitting some of the guests, including the 22-year-old mother-to-be, with a large stick, she said.

Velazquez fired a gun in the air, then fired it into the crowd, hitting Garcia in the stomach, according to police.

Whew! Tough crowd. I like the beer-swigging toddler detail - puts things into persprective.

In other news, Jack went to the Dr. today and he confirmed that he has a really bad cold and we just have to ride it out. I'm not sure how many more sleep-deprived nights I can take!
