Jon and I came up with an idea tonight at dinner.
Write a comment and pick which day Baby Tex will come. The winner gets to pick from a leftover gift card from Old Navy (with about 4 bucks on it), a leftover Chili's gift card with about 3 bucks on it, or possibly from some other leftover gift card of your choosing. I have to look through my stack.
If no one picks the exact date then whoever chooses the closest date will win. If two or more people choose the same date and it is the winner then we will split up the gift cards amongst the winners.
The official due date is August 26th. To help you pick a date....Ewan came on his due date and Isaac came 6 weeks early. I guess that doesn't really help....
Good luck!
I'm a Texan born woman transplanted across the ocean to live in England with my husband and four boys. Aside from being a stay-at-home mom, I teach birth classes for couples who want to birth naturally. My blog is about my life and how I stay sane through it all.

August 20:
Tex will be a great missionary and preacher like Bernard of Clairvaux (who died on Aug 20th).
Interesting....
That is also my Mom's birthday! :)
I think I will take the date of August 24. No reason - wait, that is my Mom and Dad's anniversary. That is the first date that popped in my head. Are you going to have a pool for baby's weight? Or, maybe that could be a tie breaker if two people choose the same date then whoever guesses the closest weight of the baby wins?
I vote for Aug. 24!
August 23rd! Come on, Tex! Just hang on for 17 more days!
(Perhaps all the exclamation points will give me an advantage)
~allison k.
I vote August 26th--not a day early, not a day late.
I can't wait to see and then meet that little guy. :-)

I don't know why but this rarely works for me anymore.
I want to guess 8/15/07 and win or lose - i want to send you a gift card. . . well you or you and jon or you and jon , the boys & baby tex.

Aug 29th...10lb 3 oz! Thought I would show off with the weight guess! You know my address to send the winning gift cards...come on Old Navy!!!
who could ask for a better anniversary present than L'il Tex-- I'LL CONCIDER HIM AN ANNIVERSAY PRESENT EVEN IF HE'S EARLY OR LATE---Love you--granma
August 21st.
Okay lady...I think August 27
That is the day that comes in mind first. It is the first day of school back here in Anna Texas so baby Tex has to represent!!
Love Kim Demaree
Lil Tex will join us on August 25. and will weigh in at 8 lbs 12 oz.
Love,
GiGi and Pappi
OK -- I'm going to vote for August 26 -- my grandfather's birthday -- that would be my dad's dad, George Alexander MacBain -- Baby Tex's great-great-grandfather. He was a kind soul, a gentle spirit who loved laughter and loved his 3 granddaughters (no grandsons) -- since Monica had it first, she can have the gift card!
I'll take August 22 since it seems to be what is left in "close" range. Don't need a gift card - it's the knowledge of simply knowing I won that is the thrill of the game for me!
august 18th =)
hahaha
I'll take August 18th...one month to the day before I get on my plane back to Texas for a visit. : )
August 23rd would be fun since we could share a birthday! I was supposed to be born on the day Elvis died, but I was late.
i'm late to this game but i also think the 27th.
Ok, I'm assuming you haven't had him yet. I say...um...how about September 18th.
No, just kidding. Haha..right? Very funny right?
What about August 28th.
Oh my Gosh, Marie--September 18th?? You had me for a minute! Wouldn't it be ironic if my 3rd baby is the one that wants to be "late"?
Good luck on the poll!
Hi Amelia,
I'm going to say September 2nd. No reason except that we are passed most of the other dates.
Love to all,
Grammy (Neta)
