RESCHEDULED - How IS babby formed?

Sun September 11 at 2:30 PM, Prospect Park, Brooklyn
95 Prospect Park West, Brooklyn, NY, USA (Map & Directions)
the young rope-rider is having a baby in September, and I think a celebration is in order. Let's have a picnic in Prospect Park! RESCHEDULED THANKS TO THAT JERK IRENE!
**Update: We have pushed two weeks due to Hurricane Irene, from August 28th to September 11th. Also, we found a general location!**
I will be bringing a variety of food items, feel free to bring anything you might like. I suggest others bring things to sit on and drinks for themselves.
We will meet at Long Meadow near the 9th st and Prospect Park West entrance. Hopefully we can find a spot to sit somewhere close to there!
I cannot tell a lie, there might be a cheesy baby game or two. But I promise, no one will have to eat anything brown or any other color out of a diaper.
Should you wish to bring a gift for the youngest rope-rider, I hear books and baby carriers (hand me down is cool!) are in need, and they already have more than enough blankets to go around.

Yup, two of my best friends from grade school are nuns at the same convent, and I'm going to visit.

The last baby shower I went to, we had baby themed games. The one I remember the most was the one where we estimated (using string) how big around the mom-to-be had gotten by that point. Which makes me wonder: Why do people do that at wedding and baby showers? Just so there can be pictures of people doing silly things?
(Note: I think doing silly things in a park is awesome. But I'm sure TPS will come up with something better than that.)

Silly things are required at a babby party! It's just HOW IT IS!

Do we know what sex the youngest rope-rider will be? I need to know whether I'm getting babby a gun or a kitchenette.

Life is conspiring to keep me away from this meetup, I think. If you guys are still together or doing things later (like dinner) after 5pm, pls. let me know. TPS, you have my number.
I have to take my sick laptop into the Apple Store to get a professional opinion. =(
YRR, best regards for you and the n00b! Can't wait to see you both!
