guessing time

Okay, folks. It's May! Time to place your bets. I've been saying all along, I have to be prepared to have a baby any time during the month of May. My hospital bag is half packed {better than with Leah!}, the quilt is finished {way better than with Leah!} and we have the necessities washed and ready to go.

A point system will be applied and the winner will receive a prize {yet to be determined}.

We'd like to know the following about what you think about Billy:

1. When will she arrive? (Due May 19, so today I am 37 weeks 4 days)

2. How much will she weigh?

3. How long will she be?

4. Tie breaker: Will she look more like Maren (olive skin, dark hair) or Ryan and Leah (fair skin, light/no hair)

If it helps, this is what she looked like at 19 weeks:

Some background:

Ryan was born February 14th, a Saturday. But he has no idea when he was due to arrive (I'm pretty sure it wasn't the 14th). He thinks he weighed about 7 pounds something, but he doesn't remember and has no idea how long he was. He was fair skinned and had a little bit of blonde/light brown hair. As you can see, Ryan's information is very helpful. 

*UPDATE* (from Ryan's mom who was much more helpful!): Ryan was due February 18th. He was 7 lb. 13 oz. and 21 inches long. 

I was born at 39 weeks, on a Thursday (my mom was induced a week early because she was a professional when it came to delivering babies and had them in record time). I was 18 inches long and weighed 6 lbs. even. I had dark brown hair (enough to tie a bow in) and olive toned skin.

Leah was born at 37 weeks 5 days, on a Thursday. She weighed 5 lbs. 14 oz. and was 17 inches long. I had no idea I was in labor until my water broke and I was at a 7. Good thing I was already at the hospital. She was fair skinned and had a little bit of blonde/light brown hair - similar to that of an aging man.

Also, induction date is Saturday, May 26 if she doesn't come before then. 

Ryan's guesses:

1. Friday, May 4 at 5:00

2. 6 lbs. 4 oz.

3. 19 inches long

4. like Ryan - fair skin, a little darkish hair (more than Leah), blue eyes, Maren's nose (which, by the way, is probably the only genetic input I had on Leah).

Maren's guesses:

1. Sunday, May 13

2. 7 lbs. 2 oz.

3. 19 inches long

4. like Maren - olive skin, some hair (not a ton, but some...and dark), brown eyes.

Guesses will be accepted from now until word spreads I have headed to the hospital.

Ready. Set. Go!
