Eliana Pool

In celebration of Ellie coming soon, Steph and I are going to host a pool. The best part for you: it's free to throw your guesses in. The best part for us: seeing your guesses. The winner receives a giftcard from Starbucks (a $10 value!). Or, if you're really really against the giant mariner woman who is going to take over the world with her flavorfully warm caffeinated beverages, we can get you something else (still a $10 value!).

How to enter: click on the comments link at the bottom of this post. Leave a comment with your guesses for:

Date50 points
AM or PM15 points
Time (12 hr clock)within 60 min: 25 points, within 30 min: 35 points
Weight (in lbs & oz)within 1 lb: 20 points, within 3 oz: 40 points
Height (in in.)15 points
Hair color10 points

Bonus: for the adventurous, you can put 45 points on the line and guess the gender as male (knowing the ultrasound tech has said otherwise). Guess boy and end up right, you get 45 extra points. Guess boy and Ellie comes out, lose 45 points from what you have.

The person with the most points wins! Your guess must vary from everybody else's in at least one category.

The deadline for the pool is November 15th of 2006 so get your guesses in now!

Here's what we know: the 'official' due date is Dec 2. We've had multiple doctors pontificate that Little One is indeed a girl. This pregnancy Stephanie has been craving: bagels and cream cheese, fish, and coffee. Lizzie was over a week late and induced. Lizzie was born with dark, dark hair and was very petite.

Leave your guesses in the comments. And as always, if you leave your name as anonymous, your submission will be stricken from the record and you will be seriously made fun of.
