Thought I'd request a poll as to her weight...any ideas?! :-) We have 10 days left to wait...
My vote is 7 lb 2 oz and lots of dark hair.
James' vote is 7 lb even with red hair. (I'm not sure who HE thinks the Dad is...)
The boys are sleeping, but I'll post their guesses tomorrow. :-)
Today was such a fun day- we got lots done (well, JAMES got lots done and I helped where I could...) All those things that have been sitting on my To Do list forever that have finally happened. Don't you LOVE days like that?! Here's some of what we did:
- hung my SUPER CUTE welcome sign that's now on my front door
- the baby bed mattress is moved to the top position- all ready for BABY GIRL!!
- we tinted the glass in our front windows surrounding our door
- we transplanted some of the flowers and plants I've been growing in my windowsill to the outdoor pots on our porch (they were REALLY needing more room to grow...)
- I put together the trundle drawer for the crib with Ty's 'help' (we've had it for 5 years now and have NEVER used the drawer- it's just been traveling with us in the original boxes!)
- James mowed the yard & weeded the garden (we actually have some of everything sprouting up, a couple of teeny tomatoes, and a plum in the works on our plum tree!)
- I bought some cute little gowns for Baby Girl (my first real baby clothes purchase for this little sweetie!)
- I tried out shopping at a store called Aldi's (good prices, lots of hassle, would never go with kids!)
- Cleaned out our storage room downstairs and pulled all the rest of the baby things out
It was one of those days where you just feel good looking at all the things you did that really didn't take that long, but you just never got around to doing. WAHOO! Anyway- I don't think I've been this productive in MONTHS- so now, I suppose I can take a break for another few months... ha ha ha
Can't wait to see what everyone votes for Baby Girl's size! (We can't vote on due date cause it's already determined to be on the 8th).

Well my experience with a baby girl was 7lbs 3oz so that's my vote. And all my kids have had the exact same hair color so I guess she'll have dark hair like your boys. Is there a prize for the winner?
My vote is 7 lbs 8 oz and just a touch of light brown hair. Whatever she weighs and regardless of the amount of hair or color, I'm sure she will be beautiful and I can't wait to see her! Cute room too!
I guess mine to be 7lbs 6oz. As for hair? I am going with medium brown, but you never know, that red might just pop in there...:) Good luck and way to go on getting so much done!
My baby girl was 8 lbs 3 oz, I'm guessing yours will be a pound shy. I'm with James on the hair, definitely red! Mine had it...........so did the mailman!
Sheer coincidence!
7 lbs. 11 oz, just because it's been fun to say "7-11" about Bryton and you have good size babies even though you are so tiny. Dark hair, sorry James, but hey we do have some Irish in us so maybe by some real long shot the red could surface after like 20 generations right?
I'm so excited for all you got done...I love days like that, wish they happened more often ;o)
Love the room too.
Well, since my baby girls were 9lbs 13oz (you) and 8lbs 12oz (Rachel) and your babies tend to be 3-4lbs less than mine - I'll say 6lbs 12oz with dark curly hair! We can't wait to see her - only 1 week and 2 days! Then I can say that I have 3 grandsons and 3 granddaughters! I LOVE even numbers! :-) XXOO - I love you! Mom
Okay! I am in for the red hair. Just because I have red hair and 4 kids with not a single one of them having red hair! The chances are just as good then for yours to have red. As far as size....7lb 9oz.
7 lbs 1 oz - just like I was! So, you didn't like ALDI, eh?
I'm going with 6lbs 15oz and dark brown hair.
I would have to say I am going opposite of everyone and going for 6 lbs 10 oz, with dark hair. I naturally she will be beautiful. Good Luck!!
Oops- I posted my vote on the wrong posting. I vote 8lb 2oz. And she will, of course, be beautiful!
