Alrighty. For those seasoned readers and those who have followed since the birth of our last child you may know what this is about. Some friends of ours did this little game during their pregnancies and we did it with Lincoln. I know that it's getting closer to the due date but hey, that increases your chances of winning right? The general idea of the game is that you make a complete guess of the categories provided and based on a point system the winner will receive a prize. Our last winner was Aunt Rachel.
The categories are; Name, Weight, Length, Day, and Time (be sure to say either am or pm).
The rules; get your guess in 24 hours before the boy is born, no more than one guess per name, no changing guesses.
Who can participate? Anyone, even your little ones if you want an extra guess, but if they win they get the prize.
Previous pregnancy facts to help in your guessing; Parker was induced a week early (we were moving across country). Lincoln was induced exactly a week after his due date. Once I was induced the delivery process was fairly quick 3-4 hours.
FYI. My due date is October 25 (yeah Grandma Pettigrew). My parents are visiting on the 28th and we hope to induce that day if he hasn't come yet. The doctors won't induce unless "I'm ready."
That's all for now. Good luck to all the contestants out there.

You guys want to name his Salmon, but are worried about the "on" ending with your last name, so a good alternative is Isaac. He'll be born on Oct. 26 (storm that day) at 11:42am weighing in at 7 lbs 2 oz and will be 20 inches long.
