*"Fabulous" to be defined by contest originators, and is subjective. Recipients of prizes may not necessarily agree. Contest originators are under no legal obligation to make prizes "Fabulous."
**"Prizes" to be determined by contest originators, and may or may not include the following: Sliced Ham; Chocolate; Spider Monkeys; Hearty Congratulations; Feeling of Superiority; Used Paperclips; Unidentified Cheese of Indeterminate Age.
Your daughter will arrive Tuesday, December 15th at 4:54 pm. She will be a petite 6 lbs 7 oz beautiful girl. You will be unable to resist the urge to name her Davina.
ReplyDeleteShe will be punctual, but not overzealous to arrive right on time. Although the mother will show signs of labor shortly after her due date, little "Lily"(?) will arrive 4 days late, the 16th of December. She will no doubt weigh in at 7 lbs 3 oz and be sporting her father's hairdo-- that is no hairdo at all. She will have fair skin, blue eyes and not stop crying for 7 minutes after birth. Is this more than you asked for?
ReplyDelete6lbs 5oz

Tammy's guesses:

Danica and Dave-I love your little stories and name suggestions. :)
December 4th at around 1:00am.
ReplyDelete6lbs 9oz
Finally a prediction for an early baby instead of a late one! Thanks, Nathan.
ReplyDeleteMemory's entry via email reads:
ReplyDeleteYou are so stinkin' funny, how could I NOT participate? Okay, #1...7 lbs. 2 oz. #2...um...December 15th. Good luck to me. I'll take the chocolate, leave the unidentified cheese. :-)
Her email is time-stamped 11-12-09, 9:08 PM.
Since hers was technicallly the first entry, but didn't show up until I posted this for her, and she and Bisbee Dave chose the same date, we've decided to give both of them that date. You two can fight over the feeling of superiority and used paperclips.
From Mom Cotton:
ReplyDeleteI think she will be born on December 18th and she will weigh 7lb 5 oz.
From G-ma Cotton:
ReplyDeleteShe will be born Dec 12th and weigh 6lbs 4oz says great G-ma
I think this precious baby girl will be born Dec 10th and weigh 7lbs 8oz
ReplyDeleteThanks for voting, everyone. My appologies to those who aren't able to post comments directly to this blog. I still don't know why it isn't working. Feney emailed to say she expects the baby to weigh 8lbs. 3oz, and she'll be born on the 14th. Thanks, Feney!
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna guess December 14th. And she'll weigh 6lbs 10oz. So you put Rose in the name afterall, huh? Brandon's mom didn't have anything to do with that did she? LOL. I just remember all the talk about Rose at the shower. Funny stuff.
ReplyDeleteI am predicting that little Una (#1 in Spainish) will arrive on December 9th and will weigh in at 6 lbs. 6 oz. - Darcy
ReplyDeleteA quick note: I know some of you are getting frustrated because you can't pick a date that's already been taken. I know of FOUR people who all wanted the 15th for their original date. Sorry--we're just going with who guessed first. Feel free to enter just contest #1 if you like. And thanks for partcipating! It's fun for us. :)
ReplyDeletePaul and Melodie (my co-worker and his wife) chose the 9th and the 2nd, respectively. Weight-wise, they picked 7lbs. 9oz, and 7lbs. 12oz.
ReplyDeleteI do not know Memory but can tell she is a very intelligent lady. She can have the chocolate, used paper clips, and the feelings of superiority. Naming your daughter Davina Rose is reward enough for me!
ReplyDeleteDecember 17th, shortly after midnight. 7lbs. 7oz. You will pick an ordinary, short vowel sound, soft consonant name, such as Emma, Anne, Sarah.
