Yay Babies!

The folks here at 123Print are pretty fond of babies. Anytime somebody’s family drops by with a tiny little human in tow a crowd forms, lots of ooing and ahing ensues and the kid gets showered with attention, likely to the point of his or her annoyance. Hey, I said we’re fond of babies; not that they’re fond of us!

That being said, anytime someone here in the 123Print family brings a new bundle of joy into the world it’s a pretty big deal. For a while there we had a pretty good flow of new sources of potential pitter-patter in the office, but we’ve gone a while without any new babies. However that’s all about to change!

Although she’s not quite ready to send the birth announcements out just yet; graphic designer Rebecca who’s been with us from the start, has filled that void with the birth of her second daughter expected in mid-October! Isn’t it nice when employees notice that something needs to be done and step up to the plate to make it happen? Needless to say the 123Print office is all abuzz with talk about the new addition to Rebecca’s family.

While we couldn’t quite talk her into having a public contest to name her new baby – and the $37.68 that the crew in the marketing department scraped together to offer in exchange for naming rights didn’t quite hit the mark – there are actually several pools circulating about the unknown statistics of little Juliet’s birth. And yes Juliet is admittedly a much prettier name than the “Funky Zebra” we were hoping the $37.68 naming rights offer would buy.

So because we like to share with our friends we’re going to let you in on our unofficial “Guess Baby Juliet’s Weight and Length” pool! So far there are no Vegas odds on this or anything, but there are some seriously strong opinions and one of our analysts, James, has some kind of freaky prediction model running on a special computer he has set up on his desk! So send in your guesses in the comments section below! When we find out the official answer we’ll post it here! Who knows; if someone gets it on the mark – or even comes ridiculously close – maybe we’ll even scrounge up something in recognition of their postnatal prognostication prowess! That’s fancy talk for being able to predict a baby’s weight and height correctly.
