Baby Guessing Pool and Easter Outfit Giveaway!

What better way to celebrate the new addition to the Sweet Child of Mine family than with a giveaway? Instead of a boring old drawing, you can enter to win this adorable prize by making a guess in the Baby Pool! Whoever guesses the closest to our baby's birth date, weight, length and gender wins!


Up for grabs is one of our most popular items. This is going to be the baby's Easter outfit, but the fabrics are so versatile, they can be worn for other occasions. Since I don't anticipate having much time to sew with a newborn, I'm making the outfit ahead of time. I don't know the baby's gender, so I'm making one of each in a size 0-3 months. The winner of the Baby Pool will win either the dress or vest-whichever one our baby doesn't need. 

To Enter:

Step 1: Follow the Sweet Child of Mine Blog
Step 2: Enter your guess in the Baby Pool.

The winner will be announced after the baby's arrival. If you want to be notified in the event that you are the winner, please enter your e-mail address in the box where it asks how you know the parents (it will be visible to all who view the pool). Otherwise, I will post the name of the winner here on the blog and on the Sweet Child of Mine Facebook page. "Liking" the fan page is not required, but would be helpful in the case that you win but don't provide an e-mail address. If the winner does not claim the prize within 48 hours, an alternate winner will be chosen.

I'm open to answering questions if anybody needs more information to make an educated guess. Post them here.

Here are the stats from my first two children:
Sweet Child #1: Girl, 8lbs 5oz 21.75 inches, born 5 days after due date
Sweet Child #2: Boy, 8lbs 7oz 20.5 inches, born 5 days after due date

Have fun and happy guessing!
