My sister pointed out that I'd better put a deadline on the guesses or people could wait until next week's ultrasound and have an unfair advantage. Good point!
So, you have until Wednesday, Sept. 24 at noon to post your guesses. After that, the betting window closes, so get your thinking caps on and turn in your guesses on this post or the original: http://trippin-lifewithtriplets.blogspot.com/2008/09/time-to-ante-up.html.
Here's what you need to post:
* Date (or dates!) the triplets will be born
* Combined total birth weight
* Bonus points if you get the genders right!
And those of you who are predicting I'll carry until November: What did I ever do to make you dislike me that much?

Time to Ante Up
It's time to put those hunches in writing, folks. When do you think these babies will arrive, and how big will they be? The person who comes closest will get a few of their 15 minutes of fame on this blog. Big stakes!
Just add a comment to this post with the following:
* Date (or dates!) the triplets will be born
* Combined total birth weight
* Bonus points if you get the genders right!
Keep in mind that there is no scheduled C-section. The doc is waiting for me to go into labor, so your guess is as good as mine!

And the Results Are In
According to the 31 of you who took part in the poll, Jeff and I are expecting all boys. Seriously? All boys? What are you thinking? Poor, sweet Amelia needs at least a sister out of this bunch!
Jeff has said from the beginning that if it's all girls he's remodeling the basement and moving in permanently. I said if it's all boys, we're adopting a sister for Amelia. No girl should have to grow up with only triplet brothers!
Right now our plan is to be surprised, but at least one of my sisters is lobbying very hard for us to find out if the babies are boys or girls or some combination. Reasons so far have included: "All the really cute newborn clothes are pink or blue." and "If you don't find out you'll have to come up with 9-12 names, and that's just crazy."
OK, the last argument has a little validity. Amelia was Baby Girl for a day while we decided which of our girl names would fit. But, we figure four girls names and four boys names will do the trick. Surely that's enough of a pool to find a name to suit each little blessing!
Of course my Mom, who has a nearly perfect track record when it comes to guessing the gender of her grandbabies, says she already knows what we're having. She's shared it so she has a witness that she's right, but no one's telling yet!
