Place Ya Bets!

Birthday: _______
Weight: _______
Length: _______

Same rules apply: 5 points for each day by which your birthday guess is off, 1 point for each ounce, and 2 points for each quarter-inch. Lowest score wins. Psychics, clairvoyants, seers, oracles, and divinators will be automatically disqualified.

For reference:

Damien:
July 25th (his due date)
7 lbs. 7 oz.
20"

Anthony:
July 24th (one day late)
8 lbs. 3 oz.
20.5"

Regina is due February 2nd. Given a linear trend, this would mean she will be born Feb 4th, 8 lbs. 15 oz. and be 21".
