My son and DIL are expecting their second child, my third grand-child, next week. The baby is scheduled to arrive on Wednesday, July 12. Their first baby, Troy, our first grandchild, arrived a couple of days before his projected birth day. Grandma and grandpa are so blessed!!! We are hoping for a healthy and happy addition to our family and a quick and trouble-free delivery for our daughter-in-law.

As a small gesture expressing our thanks for such good fortune, I am putting up a fiver of decent cigars to the person who guesses the closest correct length and weight of the baby, in total inches and ounces. For example: a guess of 21 inches and 7 lb, 3 ounces is a total of 136. (21 + 7x16 + 3 = 136)

To somewhat equalize the value of the guess of the length, that number will be used as a tie breaker. If two or more persons' total guess number is the same, the person who made the closest guess of the baby's actual length is the winner.


I will also send a second fiver of decent cigars to the person who makes the closest guess of the date and time (Pacific) of the birth. There is a remote possibility that two guesses will be within the same number, over/under, of the actual date and time of birth. The tie-breaker for this guess is the gender of the baby.


There is a one guess limit for each player. Please list all of your guesses in one post: length (inches), weight (pounds and ounces), date, time, and gender.

Congrats Al

Healthy baby girl

Our daughter in law went into labor yesterday morning. A long day became night. The night stretched into another day. Finally, early this morning, 7/ 9 at 2:05am, a beautiful baby girl popped into the world. She is 20.5 inches long and weighed 7 lb, 13 oz. Thankfully, the baby and the mother are both happy and healthy.

The winner of the first half of the contest is Hank the Tank. His guess of 145.8 total length and weight is the closest to the actual total of 145.

The winner of the date and time part of the contest is gummy jones. His guess of 7/8 at 0642 was 18 hours and 23 minutes off, but more than a day closer than the next best guess.

Congrats to the winners...please pm your addies.

Thank you all for playing and sending good wishes to our family.

Congrats on the new granddaughter and glad they are doing well!

Another to spoil and send home on a sugar high .

Congratulations.................Enjoy!

Al, congratulations! Great to hear that mother and daughter are doing fine.

I sense that you're a spoiling kind of grandfather...like most of us here.

Thanks again for the contest and congrats to the winners.

Just so you know, you spoiling types of grandparents are evil... EVIL I SAY!!!

I can't get rid of toys fast enough, they just keep getting replenished.

I will get my revenge though, one of these days I'll be the toy bombing grandparent... muhahahAHhAHAHaHhAHAHhAHHAah!!!!!

Huge Grats PAWPAW hahahaha. Now remember, when baby sitting, Give lots of chocolate 15 minutes before she goes home, buy only toys that make allot of noise and buy lost and lots of batteries to replenish the ones mom and dad take out. Also when loading the baby girl in to THEIR car to go home make sure to give her 2 cones of triple scoop ice cream {one for each hand} and a big lolly pop all at the same time. Dont worry if she drops any, the seat in their car or floor board will catch it all.

PS: Thanks for the chance at the cigars. I greatly appreciate the opportunity and grats to the winners. Lucky Bastids =d>

Cograts Al....and mom and dad!

Congrats!

Pumped that I won one of these things! Sending a PM now. Thanks!

Congrats!!!!

Congrats Al. Just saw the thread. It would have been cool had she waited until Wednesday to make her grand appearance. We would have shared a BD.

Chelsea Rose . . . What a beautiful name.
Congrats to you and your family, Al.

Love the name Chelsea. If we were to have more kids, that would be our next girls name.
