Bi-annual* Salmon Family Baby Guessing Contest!

We decided to award our blog readers with a chance to win a prize of our choosing for correctly guessing the gender, day, time, weight and length of our second child.

Here are the rules: You must submit your guess via a blog comment (or an email to one of us) at least 24 hours before Lindy goes into labor. Any guess submitted after that will be considered void. A perfect guess is worth 100 points. The breakdown is as follows:

Correctly guessing the...
gender - 10 points
date - 20 points
time of day - 30 points
weight - 20 points
length - 20 points
and...
the name - bonus of 30 points

(Partial points will be awarded for how close your guess is to the actual data. For example, if you are one day off you could still receive 18 points for that category.)

More information which may or may not be helpful: Anya was 6 pounds 11 ounces, 18.75 inches long, and born 5:05am on her exact due date, December 22nd (as was calculated by Lindy). (The doctor calculated Anya to arrive on the 18th of December).

Our second child is due on August 23rd, as calculated by Lindy, and on the 24th by the doctor.

Good Luck Guessing!

Small Print: Contest creators can make guesses but cannot receive bonus points. Any submission can be deemed void if incomplete, ridiculous, inappropriate, from someone we have never heard of or from someone who wants us to link to their spam website. Weights should be pounds and ounces and length should be in inches but conversions may be performed at a coefficient of proportion of our choosing. Times should include an am/pm designation or else they will be considered on the 24 hour clock and all times will be considered EDT.
