Can You Guess??!!

Ok, this is a really short post. We are still without internet, so our times on the internet these days are few and far between (besides what we can get on Dougle's phone, which is nice, but limited!).

We wanted to post a guessing contest. I am just over 38 weeks pregnant. My due date is February 9th. If you'd like to send in or post a comment about a GUESS you have for when Max will be due (please leave a day and a time in case someone else chooses the same day). Whoever is closest to his actual due date, we will send a small Ukrainian gift to you through my Mom on her return trip after visiting us! So, post your guesses, and make sure to put your name if you leave a comment as "anonymous"!

If you would like to leave a guess on how much he'll weigh, you can do that too. We might even send a small gift for the winner of that one too!

We are getting excited for his arrival. We still have a few things that need to fall into place before we'll be perfectly ready, but I actually think that we'll never be "perfectly" ready. Isn't that how it goes!! Canaan seems to know just a bit that things are about to change. We are reading Big Brother books and talking about the baby, who will sleep in the crib, who is coming soon. I think he will be a great big brother!!

Ok, I really must go. We got a call from the people putting up new wallpaper in our house (we'll write about that soon), and we must go! Hope you all are doing well. Leave your guesses about Max's arrival and we will post the winner as soon as we know!! Love you all. Thanks for reading and keeping up with us.

I am saying Feb. 4th! I don't know why. Sounds good. Yeah Canaan probably has a little bit of a clue about things. I hope he adjusts well. It was hard for Aspen for the first two or three weeks and she seemed a little mad at me because I couldn't spend that quality time with her right at first and Guy had to take over a lot of that. She is totally fine now though. Just a little word of encouragement that if he doesn't do well it will for sure get better! I love you and am thinking of you. Nan

Hi Lucy and Doogle

My guess is Feb 7th at 11:00 pm weighing in at 8 pounds 4 oz. and probably about 21 inches long. Hope all is going well. Take care and stay warm. Love Sue

Hi Lucy,

My guess is February 10, at 2:10 pm. And he'll be 7lbs 12 oz.

Hope you have a great time with your mom there, and a wonderful delivery too! You'll be in my prayers.

My guess is: Feb. 10 @ 6:45am; weight 7lb10oz (will you convert that or do we have to do that to win?)
Hope everything goes well for this big big day!
I am wondering if you will be the first American members of the church to deliver in Ukraine? I can't remember any others (maybe in Mariupole?)
