And the winner is....

If you are a follower, you will have known I was running a 'Guess the Weight' competition.

So I gave birth to my beautiful baby girl 15 days ago on the 27th of July at 4.03am. We have called her Grace Lily Olivia and we love her very much. You can see her at the top of the page. Here she was only just over an hour old.
 Like I expected she is a tall baby, as i could still feel her pretty high up even when she had 'dropped'. At birth she weighed 7lb 10oz.

The original winner was only 1oz off the correct weight, however they never got back in touch after emailing them. The next closest guess was shared by two entrants, however again one of them didn't get back in touch, and if I keep the sweets any longer my boyfriend will snaffle them all (he has already sneaked some of them)! 
So the other person who's guess was 7lb 1oz was MEL MATTHEWS!

Congratulations Mel you are a WINNER! 

Here is what Mel has won: 

Big pile of sweets and chocolate

I didn't go by the exact list on the competition post as I ended up having to get most of it in an order from Tesco's as I didn't realise how hard it would be to get about the first couple weeks after having a baby and stitches! (Well I tried to think optimistically that I wouldn't be having stitches and I didn't know how much they would hurt afterwards).
So here is what is in the pile:

Sherbert
Chewy Bars

Chewy Sweets and Love Hearts
Chocolate
Bit of a mixture and millions mmmmm :)
Sweetie Bags
Mega Lollies, Haribo etc
Rainbow Drops etc
Fizzers, Maoam
Marshmallows
Despite her having a painful tummy :( I managed to settle down Grace for long enough to pack these all up, so hopefully I will get the parcel sent off tomorrow. So look out for the postman Mel =)

To avoid not being able to get in touch with winners next time, and them missing out and me wasting my time, I will ask for fb contacts as well in my next competition.
I am sorry to the original winner, but I waited over a week for a reply so I couldn't wait any longer as either my boyfriend would have continued to eat his way through haha or they would have got lost amongst all the baby items!

Thank you to everyone who entered my first blog giveaway! My next will be a jewellery one as promised. The prize will be from the site most of you voted for. So look out for it in a couple of weeks time.

Guess the Weight - My First Blog Giveaway (CLOSED)

After entering a few people's lovely blog giveaway's and winning two, I was getting the urge to do one myself. So inspired by lovely Rachael over at Rachael Marie-x-Mummy to be I too am doing a 'Guess the Weight' competition, soon to be followed by another giveaway which will be jewellery themed. There will be more details about the second giveaway in my next blog post tomorrow.
I'm starting off small, but its still a prize I think the majority would be pleased to win, unless you are one of those crazy people without a sweet tooth :p 

So up for Grabs for my first blog giveaway is: 

A Huge Pile of Sweets and Chocolate
Not actually the one pictured as I will go and buy the sweets and chocolate once the winner has been chosen just in case any dietary needs need to be met e.g if you are vegetarian or have a peanut allergy.
But it will probably contain some of the following and more:
  • Flumps
  • Love Hearts
  • Rainbow Drops
  • Reeses Pieces and Peanut Butter Cups
  • Fruit Pastels
  • Snickers
  • Sherbert Treats
  • A range of other chocolate bars
  • Strawberry Laces
  • M n M's
  • Skittles 
  • Haribo
  • Jelly tots
  • Malteasers

So here's what you have to do to enter:
  1.  Be a follower of my Blog via GFC or Twitter, and leave your GFC name
  2. Leave your email so I can contact you if you are the winner
  3. Guess the weight you think my baby girl will be when she finally pops out
  4. If you want to guess the date and time she will arrive and get that right I will send you out a few packets of sweets in the post. 
  5. This is open to old and new followers, providing you don't just follow and then un-follow when the competition is over. Otherwise you will be barred from future giveaways. 

Here are some clues to help you out.....although they may be completely useless.

Here are some pics of my bump at 37 weeks gestation:


I'm now 38 weeks and 2 days and Due on July 27th


* If two or more people guess the correct weight, then I will use a name generator to pick a winner. If no one guesses the correct weight I will pick the person who was closest to the right answer.


So please pass the word on and get entering =) I'm due in 12 days, but she could be early or late and the competition will close when she has been born. I will notify the winner and get the prize out within a week of announcing it. Good Luck =)
