Welcome to the second (and final!) Weiss-Curry Baby Pool.

Guessing is now closed. We're still in the market for name suggestions, so if you missed the opportunity to enter but would still like to weigh in your opinions, log in and post a message on the message board.

All the guesses are in. Thirty-four people weighed in with their opinions. Of those, 56% predict the baby will be a boy, 44% say girl. Four of you think Basket-Basket will arrive on its due date, 21 predict s/he will come early, and nine think s/he won't be born until after May 22. The average weight guessed was 7 pounds, 3 ounces. The heaviest guess was 8 pounds, 2 ounces, and the lightest was 6 pounds, 3 ounces.

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. (Win what? Well, bragging rights, for one. Kelley is suggesting the prize should be a Saturday night alone with the new baby! Woo hoo!)

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 the names or comments you entered here:

Jim Baumstark  Boy  5/15/2004  7 Lbs, 0 Oz    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

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.

these are some of my favorite names, but I didn't have enough children to use the.
