Another Giveaway
Yes, we are having another giveaway! If you are reading this from an RSS feed that has truncated this post you need to come here to read the rules before guessing. You will be guessing the date and time that Jodi will be born. You can enter up to four guesses (see the rules below). We love Vision Forum products so much that we decided we would give the winner a shopping spree there. The shopping spree starts out at $25 and will go up to $50 when 100 people enter. Tell all of your friends – we may do something crazy if we hit 200 entries! :)

I do not have a blog and I am not really that good with the computer, so if I am doing this wrong just let me know. I want to play your guessing game though. Here is my families guess for baby Jodi.
She will be arrive January 13, at 3:17 am.
We have six girls no boys ages 19,18,17,15,8,&6.
This is always fun to play guess the when the baby is coming. Congratulations!!!
this is too much work for my over loaded Christmas brain right now :-P But, for fun I will guess January 12th at 1:23 am
this is the first time I have ever had troubles on your site so i thought i would mention it… the side links to your posts and your blogroll are overlapping with your posting box here… I use firefox.
No no no, you must do *something* to earn the entries. Kinda like buying a raffle ticket. There are four ways to enter: 1. Post a blog entry and put the banner in your entry (tell us where the entry is). 2. Post a banner in your side bar. 3. E-mail 5 or more people about the contest. 4. Become a Vision Forum affiliate.
Each one of those is like another raffle ticket to enter another guess. You can enter up to four times if you have done all 4 of the above, you see? :)

Okay, I’m too tired to do more than one thing, soooooo
I posted on my blog here http://humblebeforetheking.blogspot.com/ and our one and only guess will be……01/09/08 at 2:38 pm
:) Can’t wait for her to get here!
I was able to add the banner to my site at http://www.azmann6.com and I also emailed five friends, so that gives me two more tries. Try as I might I was unable to get it to work in my sidebar. :-( So my guesses are as follows:
I already guessed once in an earlier post.
2nd guess: 1/07/08 at 12:43 pm
3rd guess: 1/06/08 at 5:23 am
I might come back for my finale guess if I ever get the sidebar one to work. :-)
Jeff – I DID e-mail 5 friends, It said it would track it for me… did I e-mail the wrong article? LOL… that would be my luck.
That’s no big deal… just erase that guess, if I did it wrong. My dh swears I have blond roots that instantly turn brown when they see daylight.

My guess is January 13 at 7:32 am
I am sorry that I am not very good at adding things to sidebars (as you can tell by my boring blog page;( I tried to copy/paste, send to folder, download, save and anything else I could think. Nothing worked for me to get that cute pink box on my blog. I did say that you were having a contest and put a link. If it’s not enough I understand. My guess is that Jodi will be arriving on January 14th at 7:35 am.
I can’t wait to see pictures.
