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!

    Why wait to guess? Lil Beanette won’t wait; she’ll come when she’s good and ready, so….
    I’m guessing….May 20th, a special date in my family!!!

    Sherry,
    I hope you have an easy safe delivery. Now I don’t know much about babies (absolutely nothing really), but it looks like from the picture of you that the beanette may be arriving at any time. You are absolutely adorable by the way. I am going to guess May 16th. I am also going to guess 7 lbs 4 oz at around 6 pm. I love the West Elm day bed in your sunroom. Your place looks so great.
    Sarah

    I was due May 14th (first baby; now soon to be 27!!!) I thought for sure he would be born a week early, on Mother’s Day. That would be so perfect! (I was kinda self-centered like that!) Well, he was born a week late, May 22nd, but because of my insistence on Mother’s Day, I felt like he was 2 weeks late! My OBGYN told me that most first babies are born “late”. ??? So….I am guessing May 25th. Don’t even hope for “early” – you will drive yourself crazy! Good wishes to your whole family!

    May 27th! The flower-dot upholstered slipper chair – Yummy!
    From my experience, first babies tend to come later than the due date.
    Happy babying!!!!!

    May 28th! Just because first pregnancies are late arrivals a lot of the time – but I hope you get to meet your Beanette sooner! :)

    May 13th is my guess. I know its several days early but its a full moon that day and Sherry is a petite lady so I think that baby could be ready a bit early. Congrats and good luck!
