BONUS Fab Freebie: The YHL Baby Pool!

***Clara’s here! So this baby pool is officially closed***

Sherry’s officially three weeks from her due date (May 19th) so we thought it was about time we started a fun little baby pool around here. And like any traditional baby pool, we’re taking guesses about when the beanette will be arriving…

But our little YHL twist is that this baby pool comes with a special home decor-tastic prize: an $100 gift card to West Elm! We realize it’s not a particularly baby-themed freebie, but we wanted everyone (with or without a bean) to be excited to play. And needless to say we were beyond thrilled when the kind folks at West Elm offered up an amazingly generous gift card to one lucky reader. We couldn’t love their stuff more. Seriously.

Just check out some of their merch that we’re ogling at the moment (and a few things that you may recognize because they already live here at Casa Petersik):

West Elm Board

  1. The Patch NYC Flax Butterfly Pillow
  2. The Flower-Dot Upholstered Slipper Chair
  3. The Safari Rug
  4. The Bone Side Table
  5. The Overlapping Squares Daybed (which we’ve enjoyed since 2007 in our sunroom)
  6. The Platinum Dhurrie Pouf
  7. The Parson’s Desk (which we’ve used in our corner-of-the-den office for years)
  8. The Jute Cube
  9. The Large Crushed Eggshell Box
  10. The Round Coco Mirror

So here’s how it’s gonna work:

  • Comment on this post with the DATE that you think our baby girl will arrive. No need to guess times or weights (well you can but we won’t be judging those). And for fun feel free to toss out your favorite West Elm item these days.
  • We’ll leave the pool open for guesses until we announce Baby P’s arrival, so guess now or take your chances waiting (bearing in mind that we won’t be disclosing the exact moment she’s born, so you do risk losing if you hold out too long).
  • Once we’ve recuperated after D-Day (delivery day), we’ll use random.org to select ONE RANDOM WINNER out of everyone who guessed the right date.
  • The prize (aka: a $100 gift card to West Elm) is available to everyone in the USA. And, as usual, only one entry per email address is permitted.

Have fun with your predictions everyone – at this point your guesses are as good as ours!

    You definitely look like you’re about to pop! Since it’s your first baby, I think it’ll be later than your due date, but I’m going with 5/17 since that’s my sister’s birthday!

    I’m guessing May 20, because that’s my birthday! (but if you’re anything like recent new mother friends of mine, it will be a week after that!)

    I would like a new duvet for my bed and like their Summer Leaf duvet!

    MAY 21!!! Congratulations John & Sherry! (May babies are the best. My birthday is mother’s day this year. That would have been my first pick, but I think thats a little too early!)

    May 28th! I haven’t searched West Elm yet, so I’m excited that I could do so without that “guilty feeling”. ;-)

    May 20. Good luck and enjoy the last couple weeks of the pregnancy. Don’t forget the footrubs, some gentle exercise, and extra naps. Oh, and my favorite delivery tip is to eat loads of fresh fruit after beanette makes her appearance. To me, it was the best tasting, most refreshing food I’ve ever had, and I swear it speeded all of our recovery!
