Place your bets

Don't get too excited, these are just pictures of Luke and Noah at birth. We are still awaiting the arrival of number three! I thought it would fun to get everyone's best guesses about when the baby will be born and how big he will be. It is strange because this is the first time we don't have to guess if it is going to be a boy or a girl! I thought that to be fair I would share all the helpful information that I have to help you make an informed guess. The person who has the best guess will win... well you will win nothing, but you can take pride in your guessing abilities.

This week at my doctor's appointment I was actually dilated to almost 2cm. In fact, the doctor wrote it as 2cm in my chart! We talked a little about how things were going and decided that at my next appointment (Monday) we would set a date to be induced, so I think it should be a day next week, woo hoo.

Luke was born at 40 weeks and 5 days. He was 8 lbs. 11 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long. He was born at 5:30 pm. He didn't have too much hair, but the hair he did have was totally blonde! It was so unusual because even kids who turn out to be tow-heads usually have little brown peach fuzz when they are born. Not Luke, he was a blondie from the beginning.


Noah was born at 39 weeks and 2 days. He weighed 8 lbs. and 2 oz. and was also 20 1/2 inches long. He was born at 8:32 pm. Noah surprised us with a ton of black hair. When he was born Rick and I looked at each other and I said, "If I didn't just give birth to him I wouldn't believe he could be our baby."

For your guess please include date and time of birth, size (weight and length), and for a tie breaker we will go with blonde or black hair. Get your guesses in early because who knows, he may actually be born before we know it!
