Guess BoB’s Stats and Win!
To celebrate Baby on Board’s impending due date and to thank you all for the wonderful advice and support you’ve given over the past 8ish months, I thought I’d run a little contest.
To be entered to win a $25 Powells.com e-gift card (if you’re local to Portland, I’ll give you an in-store gift card) guess the following:
- Is BoB a boy or a girl? (tons of pictures here if you want to see how I’m carrying, even though my doctor swears that there’s no scientific evidence that suggests that matters)
- How much will BoB weigh? (hint: A LOT if you ask certain relatives)
The person who is closest without going over will win. And, if a bunch of you are very close, then I’ll just make it random. Contest closes this Friday at 5 p.m. Pacific Time or when Baby on Board arrives, whichever comes first.

24. October - 6:19 am(and just to sweeten the deal here, i’m going to guess that she will arrive 11.11.11 even though i know this makes me no longer your friend.) xo

I also think BoB is a girl, and I think she will weigh 8 pounds, 1 ounce.
And I will be nicer than Crist, and say that I anticipate her arrival to be 11.1.11.

I’m guessing girl and 7 lbs 2 oz. I’m so excited for all the newborn snuggles you’ll be getting very soon!
24. October - 8:19 amI’ve always thought BoB was a boy. I think he’ll be a respectable 7lb 10oz.
p.s. I’d never heard of Powells until a while back and then I was very thankful I didn’t live in Oregon when I looked them up. Because, holy book fetish, I would be in trouble. :)

Sweet – I intend to make it to Powells one day in person, but for now this will do nicely.
Based on that fab bump photo below you’re definitely toting a girl around in there (carrying high – I kinda believe in all that hoodoo), and I predict she’ll weigh 7 lbs 2 oz.
