Thursday, August 16, 2007Announcing: The Big Guess-The-Birth-Day Contest!It wouldn't be half as fun if we didn't make a little game of it, right? So here's the skinny: If you want to play, please leave your guess in the comment box of this post. Don't post anonymously; use a screen name that will make you easily identifiable. Your guess must consist of two parts: The DATE of birth and the WEIGHT of the baby. We already know it's a girl. Judging criteria are as follow: Contest entries will be based FIRST on the date. If two or more entrees have the correct date, the winner will be the one with the closest WEIGHT. Getting the weight correct but the date wrong does not a winner make! You can add any other "guesses" you'd like, just for some fun conversation. However, the actual contest will be based solely on the above criteria. What's the PRIZE, you ask? It's a cool one! Jenn at The Virgin Bean will graciously supply the winner with a free Coffee Sampler, consisting of three, four-ounce samples of some of the most scrumptious, organic coffee beans you'll ever experience. (See the little red "X" to the right? That's supposed to be a logo for The Virgin Bean. We're still working on it. In the meantime, it's clickable, so head on over and check out their web site!) As far as making educated guesses? Anything goes. My "due date" is September 5. I'm not known for going late. My earliest baby came at 38 weeks. That's all I've got for you. Sweet Baby Girl will make her appearance when she's ready. Want to play? The contest begins now! |

32of my readers are feeling chatty:
Hmmmm...
I'm awful at this, but, hey, here goes! :)
September 3rd.
7 pounds, 10 ounces.
I can't think of anything else to guess!
:D
Well, let's see...
August 28th
7 pounds 8 ounces.
She'll arrive after a wonderful natural delivery and her excited family will instantly be wrapped around her pinky. :o)
August 31
7 lb. 13 oz
My guess...
Wednesday, August 29. 7 lbs, 2 oz.
7 lbs. 4 oz.
ok, I didn't read the directions clearly (Preggo brain of my own here)
So I will leave the weight at 7 lbs. 4 oz.
Adding that it will be Sept. 3 (which btw IS labor day)
That was the stats for my first born.
Although I'd personally like more hints/info. Like....what were the birth weights of your other babies. How much weight have you gained so far? Etc.
But I've made my guess so we'll see.
August 22nd
6lbs, 14oz
7 lbs 11 oz.
I thought I'd go for that 7-11 thing.
I am guessing... GIRL! LOL
Date Sept 4
I predict she looks like you.
I'm going out on a limb and guess she'll be fashonably late, just to mix it up.
September 9th (Willy's due date) and 7lbs even.
Good Luck!!!
That's supposed to be fashionably late (perhaps I didn't spell it right this time either, still looks a little off.) :?
okay,I'll guess...
Sept. 2nd and she'll be 8lbs. 4 oz.
You can handle that can't you? ;)
What, the date or the weight?? LOL
My biggest baby was bigger than that and came out in 2 pushes, so yeah, I can handle that. ;)
Hmmm
We think you'll go over sooo
Sept 6th
3.2kg.. you can calculate how much that is in pounds
Also.. Not fair you look this good pregnant. I will probably look like a miserable hippo.
Hello, Jill. :) I saw the pictures. You're such a pretty mommy and that blouse is fabulous! I think your baby will be born on Sept. 1. I'm guessing she will weigh 7 and a half pounds. :)
I'll say August 27 and 8lbs 8oz
Babydolls from H@H
My guess is September 4th, and she'll weigh 7lbs 2oz
Okay, I'm going with August 26th, and she will weigh in at 7 lbs, 7.5 oz, 20 1/2 inches.
Kirsti -- a miserable hippo? LOL!
And...and...you want me to convert kg to lbs? I wouldn't even know how to start! I am a certified math moron!!
August 23
7 lbs 8 oz
You will go into labor late at night on August 31st, and the wee baby will grace us with her presence on early Sept. 1st AM. She will weigh 8lbs 2oz and be 21 inches long.
LOL! Just a guess - although I would love to spend my birthday, Sept. 4th, with you Mrs. Jill!
Much as I'd love to celebrate your birthday with you, I REALLY would rather have the baby before then. :)
I'm going to guess August 27 for the birth date because that's my oldest niece's birthday. She'll be 33. I'm guess 7 pounds 2 ounces because that was her birth weight. ;)
August 20th...7 lbs 7 oz
How very selfish of you Jill! lol! (just kidding of course). I do so look forward to your precious little one and your beautiful birth!
Aug 29th
8 lbs, 11 oz.
she will be a wonderful little girl that looks just like her momma.
August 30, 7 lbs. 4 oz.
But I want to bet on when you'll have the next baby. About a year and a half from now. :-)
Ken
I've just gotta get in on this.
9.2.07
7 lbs, 7 oz.
Don't let me down, Jill!
I say Sept. 1st, 7lb. 7 oz. Those were my son's numbers.
Rachel
September 9th, 6# 8oz
Okay, so I'll go with my brothers birthday, because I feel like it...
August 29th. She'll be 8 lbs 1 oz.
I'm going to guess Aug. 28th weighing in at 8 lb. 4 oz. Those are the numbers for my baby girl and she wasn't due until Sept. 14th. Good luck! May you have a fast and easy delivery! God bless you and your family.
Well, it's the 30th. Where's my prize???
:-)
