I was thinking...there are approximately 8 weeks left until our due date. By the way, that date is around March 8th-12th. We get both dates depending on the ultrasound, etc. So, I was thinking it would be a good time for you to place your guesses on the following things:
1) gender: girl or boy?
2) birth date/time: that's basic...what day will the baby be born and at what time? be sure to specify am or pm
3) weight & height: how much will this little one weigh and how long will s/he be?
So, place your bets and when it's all said & done we'll announce the winner. We'll see who was closest on most things. I'll get Jamin to make up some complicated points system! :)
You must place your guess by January 31st. Happy guessing!!!

And that's what happens when a math major and an engineer are expecting a baby...!
1)girl
2)March 10th, 8:35pm
3)8lbs, 2oz; 11 1/2" long
And I'd like to add that if this wee little girl is born with hair, that it will be brown and curly, blue eyes, too.
I can't WAIT!!
6'4, 240lbs
born wearing a pair of skates already and raring to go.
'k seriously.. can i ask a few questions before venturing a guess? there are apparently some factors out there that affect gender outcome. the biggest one being time of conception relative to time of ovulation - but i'll spare you the embarrassment and not ask that one. there are even more "revealing" factors dealing with douching, positions, sperm count, orgasms, etc. ..but let's not go there. here's my list of questions if i may:
1) Does Jamin drink coffee? How many cups a day?
2) Does Jamin wear boxers or briefs?
3) Sarah, would you describe your diet as more A or B:
A - high in potassium and sodium (vegetables, bananas, fish, and meat)
B - high in calcium and magnesium (milk, beans, cereals, cheese, and nuts)
also, i'd like to see the scoring system first please =+)
thanks you two and take care!
Hi Ian: Not hard to tell you're in med school..and I'll stick to answering some of your more tame questions :)
1) Jamin does not drink coffee
2) Jamin wears boxers
3) More B than A, but still lots of A
Hope this helps! :)
Whoops. As Sarah pointed out, an 11 1/2" baby would be pretty teeny. I meant 21 1/2".

March 13th 2006 your beautiful baby BOY will be born. 225 years after the planet Uranus was discoverd!!! He will start taking music lessons at age 6 and become a great bassist compared to Adam Clayton of U2 whom he will share his birth date with. He will forever claim his personal mission to re-claim March as "Music in our school Month" by bashing other claims on this month such as "womens history month" or "talk to your teen about sex month" or "national umbrella month" or "humorists are artist month" or "play the recorder month" all of which are true..btw... His birth date is also famous as being the "Good Samaritan Involvement Day" but he wont care.. because he is a boy who likes to make people laugh and your beautiful child will find so many more "cracks" at the fact that he was "discovered" on the same day as Uranus.
That was one of the greatest blog post comments of all time.
Jason, I don't know you but you are my hero for today.

So now that this page will come up as a "highly suggestive" page by my Covenant Eyes program (thanks Ian!), here are my predictions:
1) Boy
2) March 5, 2006 3:30am
3) Now, I don't know too much about weight cause I don't know how heavy 6 lbs is and how much an oz is (is that ounce?). So my prediction is 7 lbs. 5 oz (??)
Height (or length as he won't know how to stand) will be 19 inches.
So does someone gets a prize if they get it right? (JK) All the best and can't wait to meet the new Barrett!!!
