Hi folks,
Ben here, with an update from The Nance, who called me at 7AM to tell me that his wife's contractions were 20 minutes apart. (Next time, Bry, just stick to the 9AM report unless they're 20 seconds apart, mmmmmkay?) :-)
So Lance "Nance Nance Revolution" Nance is on his way.
I'll keep you updated over the course of the day. Let's use this thread to make predictions on the exact time and weight. The closest time and weight guesses will receive gifts from Bryan (Ha! I love hijacking his blog and making promises on his behalf!).
Personally I am hoping that the little guy waits until after midnight so that he will be born on my birthday, which is tomorrow. So my (wishful thinking) guess: January 12, 12:42AM, 7 pounds 1 ounce.
Let the predictions begin!
-Ben
------------------------------------------
[EDIT] 2PM: Contractions are 10 minutes apart, but they are lasting longer. Bryan says that anyone who guessed over 8 pounds is going to be in big trouble with his wife.
------------------------------------------
[EDIT] Noon on 1/12/06: Finally got in touch with Bryan! Alas, Baby Nance was not born on my birthday. :-( He was born at 10:40PM on 1/11/06, weighing in at 9lbs, 14oz (!) and 22 inches long. Congrats to Bryan and Tina!

let's say 8.3 pounds, born at 8:16 on 1/11/06. That would make Baby Nance an hour old right now.

In order to risk Mrs. Nance's wrath I'm guessing 7.99 pounds, at 9:30 pm.

Since most of us aren't parents (I think), that makes us all eligible to give tips to The Nance Effect.
Parenting tip #1:
Learn how to make Gingerbread houses from Ben.

Ensure he NEVER gets to read your post asking for baby names.

I'm back! Miles Nathaniel Nance is here and raising sand! I'd like to thank you for your warm comments and well wishes. In the next day or I hope to give you all a glance of the Manchild named Miles. According to Miles' Grandfather (my dad), my wife gave birth to a toddler!
I saw this great tee-shirt: "My daddy drinks because I cry". It is my deepest host that my 2 year old lets Miles live!
TO ALL OF THE PARENTS WHO SENT ME WELL WISHES, MY DEEPEST AND MOST HEARTFELT THANK-YOU!
So drop me a line!
