I'm Putting Her Fate Into Your Hands

It's contest time!!!!

Today marks exactly 36 weeks pregnant, so I decided to celebrate with my very own contest!

First off, I know you want to know if it's even worth your while to participate, so I'll start off with the prize.

You get to name my daughter!!!!!!.

Well, you get to give her a blog pseudonym, anyway. Currently, she's named Petunia. And I gotta say, it's just not working for me. She needs a new name. It can be a cutesy name, a real name, whatever. (Not an ugly** name, obviously!)

Here's how you win...

Guess the weight, length, and time of birth. I'm not doing the date because I have a feeling I'll be induced and then my contest would be a bust.

I'll pick the winner based on weight, but if there's more than one "winner", I'll go to length. And if you are still close, I'll use the time of birth. I think this way all my bases will be covered.

I am sooooooooooooo nice that I'm going to give you some history to make the guessing easier.

Peanut was 5 lbs 5 oz, 20 1/2 inches long, and was born at 7:28 PM. Both my husband and I were small babies in the 5-6 pound range and around 19 inches long.

Voting is mandatory. So come on EVERYONE. Yes, I mean you St. Louis friends who have yet to comment (Go Cards!!!). Yes, that means you in Honolulu (aloha, by the way!!!!). EVERYONE. Yes, you, who visits everyday but never says hello...this is your chance to delurk and get a prize! If you're reading this at Maya's Mom, please comment at the blog so that your guess will count!

Guess how enormous this baby's going to be so that you get to name her.

You don't have to think of a name right now, but if you have one in mind, leave it in the comments section.

**Please don't give her a hideous name such as Bertha, Moose, Gladys, Knight, Pips, Chunk, Scrawny, Beanpole, Ugly, Dora, Peanut's sister, Rutabaga, Tubs, Crockett, Paulie Walnuts, Maxie, Dummy, Ignoramus, or Farty-Britches-Kid. Thanks in advance.
