I mentioned before that my wife and I are expecting our first son in May and in response to that post, John1 suggested I have a contest, and well, I very much agree. So here we go.

I have already unveiled in the other post that my wife is due in May and that the baby is a boy. I will also unveil that one of us has brown eyes, and the other has blue. (this is important as one trait is recessive and the other dominant).

Your job is to correctly guess the baby's eye color and come closest to the date and time that the baby is born. (Remember, just because he is due in May does not mean that he will be born in May as he may be early or late). Each person is allowed one guess which is allowed on this post until 11:59:59pm EST on April 24th. (in case he comes very early)

Whoever guessed the closest to his birth date and time and guessed his eye color correctly will win the prize. So you must guess the color right in order to win. If you guess the time exact but have the eye color wrong, you will not win. If they end up Purple for some reason, and only one person guessed purple, and they missed the date by 3 months, they will win. (I only over explain so everyone is clear on my silly rule).

The prize will be announced after the April 24th deadline has expired.

(examples of guesses for sorting purposes)

What a great contest to have. Thanks Mayflower2020. Very unique and fun! You know... he will love this story when you tell him.

I won't guess yet, but sit back and enjoy the good vibes, then make my call. Congrats on the new one.
