Welcome to the second (and final!) Weiss-Curry Baby Pool.
We invite you to weigh in (as it were) with your guess on the sex, birthdate, and birthweight of the new baby. The winner will be the person who guesses the sex correctly and is closest to the date of birth. If there's a tie, the person who's closest to the correct weight will win. Post your ideas about potential prizes on the message board.
We're also looking for suggestions for names. Both creativity and actual helpfulness are valued (a hint for those of you who could come up with nothing but wiseass suggestions last time!)
The official due date is May
22, 2004.
Kelley has only gained 19
pounds as of 36 weeks, but four people have asked her recently if she's having
twins.
Based on
old wives' tales, there is a 52% chance the baby
will be a girl.
Julia weighed 6 pounds, 15 ounces and was born 2 days after
her due date.
You can see the guesses from
last time if you need further
inspiration.
Your guess is that Basket-Basket will be a Girl born on 5/20/2004 weighing in at 6 pounds, 8 ounces. You can change your guess here until May 8th:
| Name | Sex | Date | Weight | Names | Comments |
| Josh Weiss | * | * | * |
Boy: Elijah Girl: Cow-Cow-Cow |
I stole my name ideas from toddlers. |
| David Schrag | * | * | * |
Boy: Kenneth, Kyle, Kevin Girl: Kayla, Kara, Kiera, Kendra, Koala |
Ask Roger Clemens for more suggestions |
| Jim Baumstark | * | * | * | Matthew (nearly 3) suggests "Orange" (his favorite color) and Maggie (just turned one) suggests "J" because she thinks it's cool to have the same first letter as her older sibling. Congrats! -Jim & Bridget | |
| Paul Fjelstad | * | * | * |
Boy: George W., Corey, Jeffrey, Olav Girl: Keeley, Kayla, Kylie, Katrina, Annie |
Throw in various accents for the first girl names, and the confusion at the dinner table could be epic. |
| Kate Dunn | * | * | * |
Boy: David, Jeremy, Trevor Girl: Ellen, Diane, Anna |

These are Sophia's choices. She seems to be a little biased toward girls names. My favs are: Lemon Grass, Coriander, and Tumeric which are all unisex. |

My suggestions from last time didn't get used, so I've suggested them again. We've barely talked about names this time, so make your suggestion good - we might actually use it! |
| Cheri Lieberman | * | * | * |
Boy: David; Alex(ander); Ethan;Last One;Kenneth Girl: Alix;Taylor;Last One;Karyn;Girl(inspired by Tarzan);Ariel |

I am wishing for a boy to keep us in balance--but I know you will be thrilled with either one (and big sisters are very nurturing). I also think you need a K name for balance, but can't think of many that aren't trendy. |

| Mary Metz | * | * | * |
Boy: Caleb, Issac Girl: Rachel, Leah, Miriam |
these are some of my favorite names, but I didn't have enough children to use the. |
