baby pool reminder

This is a baby pool reminder.  You have 1 month to submit your guess.  You can submit your guess by clicking the "expect net" icon to the right.  Each guess you enter will cost you $1 (which you have to give Kevin or myself sometime in the next 2 months).  This is meant to be fun, but if you do not intend to pay, please do not participate. 

I will send out one last reminder a few days before I close the pool on February 28th!

(31 weeks & 5 days)

baby pool

Since Trent's baby pool was such a success we decided to do another one. There will be some differences, however:

Last time, we allowed each person to place only 1 guess. This time you can place as many guesses as you'd like (within reason), but each guess costs $1. The winner will get all of the money! I will close this pool 2 months before the due date, so be sure to place all your guesses by January 28th!! Don't worry, I'll remind everyone. Please have the money to me shortly after the baby is born, at the latest. Please do not place a guess unless you intend to pay :-)

and the winner is....

Ok, so this is 9 months late, but still warrants our attention. Remember that baby pool I had going before Trent was born? Sooo many of you participated, which made it a real blast! Well, I'm not sure if I ever officially announced the winner. MY DAD! Of all people.

My dad's guess was:

Boy
7 lbs 14 ozs
21 in
Nov 11, 7:15 pm

and of course Trent was/is

Boy
7 lbs 7 ozs
20 in
November 11, 7:10 pm

I'm a little embarrassed to admit that it took me almost 9 months to actually get him his "prize". In general my dad is a very hard person to shop for, so I wasn't in a big hurry. Eventually I found the cutest little picture frame that I was able to personalize. Here's a picture.


Clearly that is NOT my dad OR Trent, haha, but that's the frame. He really seemed to like it!!
