Baby pool time!

Everyone knows that you don’t really enjoy an event unless you’re betting on it. So, we’re giving everyone a chance to guess the birthday and weight of the new Fullerton in the Great Fullerton Baby Pool!

It’s half populated already because we launched it during the weekend Murphy Family Reunion. Fullerton/Sweets and friends – read on!

Click on the pool to make it bigger.

The Prize

  • The winner of the baby pool will receive a photograph of the new Fullerton in a t-shirt saying “I love the winner”.

The Rules

  • One square per person.
  • First person to speak for a square in comments claims it.
  • If an empty square wins, the prize will go to the next populated square down from the empty winner.
  • No bellyaching if you lose.

How It Works

  • The top numbers are the last digit of the date of birth. So if you pick “7”, then it means you have picked the 7th, the 17th AND the 27th.
  • The side numbers are the last digit of the weight. So if you pick “8”, then it means you have picked 8 ounces (all pounds). If you pick “5”, then it means you have picked 5 ounces AND 15 ounces (all pounds).
  • So, if the baby is born on January 21st, and weighs 8 pounds 7 ounces, then Brittany Spriggs would win. Got it?

Other

  • In the interest of disclosure, the due date is January 16th.
  • I will update the pool as squares are claimed.
  • Jen: can you take this to the August Long event to sign up the unwired members of our family? We received the invite from Mel but will not be able to make it :'(
  • Any questions let us know.
