Countdown to Baby Kroll!
Well, the time has come to pass yet another milestone on the road of life. In 5 days, Baby Kroll is scheduled to join our family of friends. I'm so excited, I can't wait!
And just for a little fun, I'll let you in on what the wager pool looks like as of tonight: (fear not, Ma & Pa Kroll have placed their bets too)

Mommy Carrie - boy - 8 lbs 8 ozs - 22 in - Jun 21, 6:00 am
Polster - boy - 8 lbs 6 ozs - 22 in - Jun 22, 11:59 am
Uncle Mike - boy - 7 lbs 5 ozs - 22 in - Jun 23, 6:35 am
Mandy - boy - 7 lbs 10 ozs - 21 in - Jun 24, 8:19 pm
As you can see, Michelle is already out of the running. And, I'm pretty sure that Dave's bet on a 15-pounder coming outta Carrie's teenie little body is safely a non-contender.
What's the prize anyway? I'm not sure we ever determined that. The first dirty diaper perhaps? Spit-up/burp rag? A spare booger sucker? Or (and I'll say it only because I know the guys have already thought it) the little chunk of umbilical cord that finally falls off the belly button? eeeewww.
Anyway... you'll notice that my wager lists the latest birthday. (Baby Koo's estimated arrival date is June 15.) But I know that Carrie was born about 2 weeks late. You see, she was supposed to have my birthday and I was supposed to have hers. So, she was late and I was early, and the rest is history.
Looking forward to the new chapter. . .
Already love ya, Peanut, and I don't even know ya yet.
