Sorry I am on a roll today and procrastinating at work at the same time : )

I think I am having a girl. My husband thinks we are having a boy.

We want to place a wager. Suggestions?

Diaper duty ~ we take turns anyways.
Cat Liter ~ well he does it for 9 months and then I take over for a bit and then we rotate.
Dinner ~ no he is the better cook and I clean up.
Night duty ~ no I will bf so I can't share that one.

What do you guys think?

What can I do next?

I dont think trading work is a good diea. When you come home he will be doing it all anyway and you wont need any additional things to do.
Why not bet the remote. You get the remote for a week if you are right.
Or he has to watch a chick flick with you vs you have to watch a horror movie with him.

My husband and I occasionally place bets just for fun. Our usual wager is "my life, my all." Works great for us – there are no losers!

I'd make him do the things I REALLY don't like doing. For me, that would be laundry.

If you win, he either has to clean the house, or book you a massage/spa day.

If he wins, he gets to spend an entire weekend doing whatever he wants to do (out with the guys, sporting event, fishing trip, etc.)

I win - a massage
Hubby - he wants a BJ (go figure)

I never wager if I think I will lose :)

I like the remote idea, or radio control in the car (if y'all ride together), he takes you out to your favorite place to eat, bragging rights, breakfast in bed, or he has to do something crazy like strip tease to Single Ladies while you hand out $1 bills haha that would be hilarious! Keep it fun!

Yay for a new baby!

Oh, I like the toilet cleaning suggestion. Or you could wager on taking out the garbage, doing laundry, doing grocery shopping. Good luck!

We did this!

*If I won & we had a girl he promised to never baulk at or complain about me buying her shoes, ever!

*His was sexual, what a surprise!

~I won and really haven't taken advantage if my free pass on shoe shopping....well, not that much anyway :)

Whoever loses (or wins, depending on your perspective) has to (gets to) plan the next family outing. (picnic in the park, stroll through the mall, movie and dinner....)
