9 Days and Counting

We are having a contest here at our house to see who can guess the weight of our baby boy. The winner gets a packages of these:



If you haven't had these, you are missing out. I think they are our new favorite candy. In any case, here are the guesses so far:
  • Brandon:  9 lbs.
  • Lincoln:  8 lbs. 3 oz.
  • Lillie:  7 lbs. 4 oz.
  • Mary Margaret:  7 lbs. 15 oz.
  • Jack Henry:  8 lbs. 5 oz.
If anyone wants to join in the contest, please do. Just leave a comment below. If you are the closest commenter I'll give you a bag of Peppermint Pattie Pieces. As a little hint, here are the weights of our other children, all of whom arrived late except for Anne Marie: Lincoln (8 lbs.); Lillie (7 lbs. 4 oz.); Mary Margaret (7 lbs. 11 oz.); Jack Henry (9 lbs. 15 oz.); Anne Marie (7 lbs. 8 oz.).

As a side note, here are a few comments I heard today when I was out running errands. I went into Hobby Lobby to get some stickers for a project I'm working on. The stickers happened to be from the wedding section, and when I was checking out the teenage cashier said, "Oh! Are you getting married?"

Later, as I was walking into the store I passed a lady walking out and she said, "Any day now, huh?" In that same store, as I was paying, the teenage boy at the register said, "Uh, I guess you are like really pregnant?"
