d.  Ordered a cake from Charm City Cakes, the bakery featured on the show, Ace of Cakes.

For the record, Kimberly’s ADORING husband did reserve the banquet space at the restaurant Zaytinya, but it did not require the preparation that the cake did.  And, Kimberly did not have family members arrive from overseas, nor is she in the running for a reality show.  But, that could have changed after her long birthday weekend in Vegas…

Guess what!  Due to popular demand, I’m starting up Take a Guess Tuesday again.  Some of you might know all about the series, but some newbies may not be clued in.  So, here’s how it works.  On Tuesdays there will be a quiz and you will have a week to post in the comments your answer.  The answer (along with a brand new spankin’ question) will be posted the following week.  It’s all fun and games here, so step right up and be the first contestant on the second series of Take.  A.  Guess.  TUUUUEEESSSDDAAAYYY!*

Haven loves to shake her groove thing and has gone crazy recently when we play the following song:

a.  I Will Survive, by Gloria Gaynor
b.  Axel F, by Crazy Frog
c.  Folsom Prison Blues, by Johnny Cash
d.  You Raise Me Up, by Josh Groban

*  To be eligible to actually win, contestants must be living and have a valid name and email address.  I haven’t actually figured out what the prize may be, but at the end of a certain period of time (again, TBD)  it will be SOMETHING.

take a guess tuesday : week fifty-two

Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008

And the winner is…Annalisa!

Baby Haven was born 9/12/2008, weighing in at 8 lbs. 12 oz. and was 20 inches long.

Annalisa guessed that we would have a girl, born on 9/15/2008 and weighing 8 lbs. 8 oz. and 21 inches long.

Congratulations!  If I get crafty or motivated I will pop a little surprise give in the mail for you!

On another note, it’s been a whole year since I started TAGT.  As much as I would like to continue TAGT for another year, I have made the decision to take a (hopefully brief) hiatus.  I know some of you are completely heartbroken, but don’t you fear.   I am hopeful that TAGT will make an appearance again soon.

Hopefully, this is the last of the baby pool TAGT.  I’m ready to be unpregnant.  If you haven’t voted, or if you want to vote again for the fun of it, go ahead.  Some of you were saints and thought I would have delivered by now, bless your heart, while others thought I would go over my due date.  Nobody picked my actual due date, so wouldn’t it be funny if the baby proved you all wrong and arrived as scheduled?

Yes, there’s still time to vote in the baby pool!
