I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of my granddaughter, Clover. Samm's due date is December 8th, just ten days away! What better way to pass the time while waiting than to have a contest? This is going to be a very easy contest; all you have to do is leave a comment on this post guessing when Clover will arrive and how much she will weigh. I will give three prizes - one each for the closest guesses on date and weight, and one will be chosen at random. If more than one person choses the correct date or weight, a winner will be drawn from the correct answers.
Everyone can play; you do NOT have to have a blog to play. So come on out of Lurkdom and play with me!
You'll have to come back tomorrow to see what the prizes will be (I have to go stash diving tonight).
The deadline for guesses will be whenever Clover decides to arrive, so hurry up and get your guesses in :-)

Posted by: ErickaJo | Nov 28, 2007 at 05:01 PM
Hmmm... date December 9, weight will be 8lbs 2oz but for her sake I hope it's before the 8th.... always such a pain to have this date in mind for most of the 9 months and then have everyone ignore it without blinking an eye.
Posted by: Lucy | Nov 28, 2007 at 05:27 PM
I'll say Dec 11.
weight... 7 lbs 11 oz
Posted by: Christy | Nov 28, 2007 at 06:08 PM

Um, December 7, 7 lbs, 17" long.
Posted by: Chris | Nov 28, 2007 at 07:12 PM
Well, gosh! I'm so good with the baby-stuff! (you may laugh now, I won't mind...) But, I'm going to say December 15 and 8 pounds even. Yup. That's what I'm going with.
Babies are small, right? And take about nine months to finish?

Okay. My guess:
December 10
7 lbs. 2 oz.

Okay, I'll give poor Samm an early delivery...
December 6th, in the late evening (after dinner,before bed)
Somewhere around 8lbs and an ounce (as opposed to my friends' new baby at 9.9!).
Happy Grandma-ing!
Posted by: Kathleen C. | Nov 29, 2007 at 11:38 AM
My Dad's b-day is Dec 7th so I'll go with that as the date. 3:45 am for the time and 6 lbs 15 oz for Clover's weight.
Posted by: kitkatknit | Nov 29, 2007 at 11:44 AM
I predict this little Sagittarius kid is going to be right on time 12/8/07 7lbs 14 oz
Final Answer :o)
Posted by: Melissa | Nov 29, 2007 at 11:45 AM
First kids tend to be late, so I'll bet on Dec 17, and weighing in at 8lb 2oz (my first son's weight).
Good luck!

Posted by: Lisa | Nov 29, 2007 at 02:23 PM
I think Clover will arrive on 23rd Dec and she'll weigh 8lb 10oz. I am basing this on my own first granddaughter's delivery...she was 2 weeks late!
Posted by: Marianne | Nov 29, 2007 at 02:33 PM
My guess is December 6th (my son's bday) and Clover will weigh 8 lbs 5 oz
Posted by: Jenn | Nov 29, 2007 at 02:39 PM
December 10th and for an easier birth, we'll go smallish - 7lb.s 8 oz.
Clover is such a sweet name!
Posted by: 5elementknitr | Nov 29, 2007 at 02:49 PM

December 2; 6 pounds 14 ounces

I guess 12/11 and a weight of 7 lb 14 oz...21 inches long! My girlfriend just gave birth to twins last week, the lucky girl got to pick the due date herself!
Posted by: Tanya | Nov 29, 2007 at 08:53 PM
Julie! Thanks for PIF! I'll be sending you something in the next year. Who know what.
And because my birthday is December 8, I'm sticking with that for the guess. And 8 lbs 14 oz. This is so exciting!
Posted by: Teresa C | Nov 29, 2007 at 09:35 PM
I'm so bad at this and I have no idea how much babies weigh. I'm going to guess 8 lbs even because I think that's what I was. And let's go with Dec 12th.
