It’s a giveaway! (Winner announced)
Posted under: UPDATE – 3/11/12
We have a baby and a winner! Adeline Reese was born on 3/6 and was 7lbs 10oz.
Congrats to Jason for the pseudo scientific guess of 3/6 and 7lbs 15oz!
Thanks to everyone for entering, it was a lot of fun.

We’re down to the final two weeks of the longest pregnancy ever! Just kidding, honey! We’re a bit anxious waiting to meet our daughter, Baby “A”, so for a bit of fun and distraction, I’m going to have a giveaway. Guess the birth date and the weight and you’ll win a sample pack of coffee from one of my favorite local roasters, the Ithaca Coffee Company!
Here are the rules:
- Guess the birth date and weight
- Post your guess as a comment below
- One entry per person, no redos
- If you don’t drink coffee, then too bad, maybe you should start. :)
Hints:
- Son was born at 9 lbs 13 oz
- Daughter was born at 8 lbs 11 oz
- Both kids were near their birthdates
- Due date is March 9th
Good luck and happy guessing!

Awesome, I can’t wait to watch my wife drink it while I enjoy some programmers fuel (diet mt. dew). I was a little worried with the facebook updates that it might be a little earlier then I (actually your IP address) predicted, but in the end computers never lie. I’ll be ready to defend my crown with your next kid! Congratulation on the new baby!
As I was pouring my coffee this morning, I suddenly thought of the giveaway and decided to take a look. There’s exactly a clear winner, is there? 2 people got the date right–Jason (Cuykendall??) guessed the date but was off by 5 oz. And Oma guessed the date but was off my more than a pound! Jen Columbia was only off by 1 oz and 2 days and Philip Shen was off by 3 days and 1 oz, but if you turn March 9 upside down, it’s March 6th, so that seems pretty close! And I was off by 3 days (but again, you could just turn my 9 into a 6 ;-) and 2 oz, so I guess I’m out. So, what’s the word??
wait.. the date and weight?? wouldn’t one or the other be good enough? :o
I’m going with.. 3/7 at 8.3.
Closest on both will win.
Ok…lets say 4th/8.8…and since no one else put the 4th…we can swap some Kona from the islands with Ithaca coffee…just putting it out there! Hugs all!
mmm.. Kona coffee… mmmm
March 4th
7lbs 3oz
March 10, 8 pounds 6 oz.
I’m going with March 13 and 9.5 pounds! Good luck!
March 7
8 lbs., 9 oz.
March 8th. 9lbs 1oz.
I’m going with March 9th, 8lb 4oz. (Coincidentally, that’s also the details of my coffee order. ;)
If you can do it, and I don’t think I’m asking too much, but could you make the numbers as mathy as possible? Such as working around the number 12, etc…
eg:
3/9/12 : 3 + 9 = 12
8lb 4oz : 8 + 4 = 12
No pressure — just do what you can…. ;)
Or today 3 x 4 = 12 :)
9 lbs
March 5
And hopefully a super-easy time for all involved!
You practically gave the answer away!
If I take the sum of this web sites IP address (70.84.137.66) I get 357 which is a clue that it will be between 3/5 and 3/7.
March 6 is the Michelangelo virus day so that would make sense. So March 6th it is.
3/6/12 4:59 to be exact which is 3612459 milligrams and 3612459 milligrams = 7lbs 15oz
Nicely done. Where should I send the coffee? (just kidding)
March 8th, 7lbs 9 ozs (Here’s hoping Tara! =)
March 3rd, 8 lbs, 2 oz
mkay I’m going 3/16 7lb1oz 21″ Go MARCH BABY :) (for the record I’m only going w Mar 16 because it’s my birthday)
