The Official Besher’s Little Brother Prediction Game (and you can win a prize too!)

December 14, 2009

Because everyone who knows me knows I love to play games.

So we’re going to have a little prediction game. Yes, the winner gets a prize. A fabulous prize. Not to mention bragging rights. Which is even better than a prize, when you think about it.

The rules:

1. To enter, submit a comment/response to this note with your prediction for three things: Besher’s little brother’s weight at birth, his body length (in inches), and the day/time of his birth.
2. For every ounce you’re off, you get a point. For every inch you’re off, you get a point. For every hour you’re off, you get a point.
3. The entry with the least points wins the prize and bragging rights.
4. One entry per person.
5. Entries are open immediately. They will end when I post something to Facebook saying we’re off to the hospital.

Now, some extra information. We’re scheduled for a c-section on Friday, so any entries suggesting the baby will be born after Friday–well that’s just crazy. We’re scheduled for the morning, but who knows what time that could be so feel free to take that into account (if you think we’re going the distance).

Besh was a bit over 8 pounds at birth. When we had his final sonogram (about a month before birth) he was estimated to weigh 5 pounds. Besher’s little brother, on the other hand, during that same one-prior-month sonogram, was estimated to weigh 7 pounds. But those are just estimates, so feel free to take that into account.

Oh, and the little guy’s femur was off the charts during that sonogram. I don’t expect him to come out being able to dunk a basketball (but that’d be sweet), but I give you that extra bit of information as well.

So don’t wait, enter now. Because the time to enter could end ANY SECOND!

One comment

  1. I’m thinking he’s going to weigh in at about 6 lbs 1 oz, be about 19 inches long, will be born on Dec. 18. The time is not as clear, but I’m thinking it’ll about the same time Nonni finishes her hamburger and I polish off my yoghurt. Oh, and I’m also thinking his name will be Isaac and he’ll be beautiful, extremely photogenic and the perfect addition to the family. So, what’s my prize????
