Let's play a game...

It's called "When is Margaret going to POP?"
Have you seen these hilarious pictures? I know it's supposed to be funny, but in the last days of pregnancy it feels very real!

Well, our dear Miss Margaret in MN is about ready to pop. Let's see who can guess the stats... if you win, I'll send you one of these three Christmas books (continental US shipping only):


So, click on the baby pool widget above and let's play!

      Aren't they? My husband told me about them. I cracked up!

      Loved, especially, the shot where the guy had lost his shoe! Hopefully, Baby B's arrival will be a bit less dramatic than all that.

    Fun! l love these games, though I never win, lol! I do hope it's sooner rather than later for her sake. I know how miserable it can be towards the end. You feel like you're all belly with just a head, legs and arms sticking out. ;)

    Thanks for hosting and offering one of the books, Charlotte.

    Love love love Margaret's photo. Reminds me of when I was VERY pregnant w/ Huck, and I was at the girls' music class when I got a phone call from Alice. I texted her back: "Can't talk now, am sitting in piano." Alice, not missing a beat, texted back: "Of course you are! It's the only place big enough to hold you!" ;)

    I'm still rooting for Margaret's official due date, the 17th, because it's my birthday. :)

      I remember that! No one--and I mean NO ONE--can deliver a quick zinger like Alice the Great.

    Maggie might not feel great, but she looks great--beautiful actually.

    Love those photos of the blowing up belly--very creative people!

    thanks Charlotte, what a fun game!

    Wow, that was fun! I was thinking back to the kids'weights, lengths, Margaret's height, the sizes of her other children....sheesh! My brain hurts now....in a good way.:). What a fun contest and beautiful prizes. Thank you!

    I took a guess with her going a few days before her due date. My last baby was a full week late and that last week was just so frustrating.

    Thank you for doing this, Charlotte! Margaret, when I saw your post and the title "Still pregnant after all these years," I was overcome with the beauty of being "still pregnant" after how many years of marriage? Your openness to life is such an inspiration to me. I hope that I'm "still pregnant" in my forties, too! Prayers for you!!

    What a great idea, Charlotte! Creative, as always! Blessings to you Margaret. Our last baby was born right before my 44th birthday...rock on mama!

    Hang in there, Mama Margaret! I remember being:
    1. Short (I'm still short)
    2. 12 months pregnant
    3. Of advanced maternal age (as the doctors like to call it)
    4. Annoyed (to put it mildly) by false labor

    Soon, soon, very soon!

    I'm guessing the 15th. Just entered the guess. And hoping I'm wrong and that it happens today. :)
