Pink or Blue?

So there's one week until we know for certain:

Miss Piggy...


or Kermit?


Matilda...


or Charlie Bucket?


Return to Oz...


or Willow?


To be honest, I'm hoping the answer is yes to every single option above, but the real question is girl or boy?

I'm about to put my money on the table and say my gut is telling me boy. Boy, I said it, boy. I think I'm having a boy. I've thought it since the beginning, and though I've had bouts of extreme doubt since then, the closer I get to next week's appointment, the more certain I am that we are expecting Baby Boy Sutherland in August.

However, I will say, I would be very stoked to be completely wrong. So who knows?

I thought it might be fun to play a little game. I'm going to say the winner gets a box of homemade salted caramels made my moi (they've been known to cause groans of pleasure from those who taste them) shipped directly to their residence. But not until August. For you see, to win you have to properly guess the sex of the baby, and guess closest to the due date.

Wanna play? Wanna win some caramels? Answer the following questions in the comments of this post and see what happens. Comments on Facebook will not be accepted... sorry :)

Question 1: Boy or Girl?

Question 2: Due Date (you can include the time if you want)

So for the hell of it, my guess is baby boy born at 4:12pm on August 24.

And may the gender and date odds be ever in your favor.

  3. 1. Baby Girl (Sorry, Shapeshifter!)
    2. August 21, 2012 2:30pm (Because I would like to think that she will arrive & think, "Wasn't I supposed to be in Kauai at a wedding?")

    =)It will also make it less weird when I send you the baby "Pride & Prejudice" that I bought the other day!

  7. Hmm. From my experience your gut is usually right when you're pregnant. Mine was :-)

    So, I say "Boy" to question 1, and to question 2, I say August 22 at 11:40am.

    Need to see more baby bump pictures!

  8. When I first saw you were pregnant, my gut told me BOY too, so I pick boy! And I think August 26th at 4:37pm and if I'm right, I think you should name him Harrison because that's my little brother's name and he was born on 8/26!
