25 Weeks

I am happy to report that the nursery is almost done. Craig has finished everything but the new floors. The wood is ordered and hopefully he will have them put down by next weekend. We ordered the furniture and are going to pick it up this weekend and store at Craigs parents house. I am very excited. I can't wait to walk in there and see everything in it's place, just waiting for our little guy to arrive.

Cody is very active these days, he still seems to love juice and fruit the most. It still amazes me when out of the blue, I feel him give me a good kick. Craig loves rubbing my belly and feeling him. Makes it so much more real.

This past weekend we went to The South Flordia Fair with the Pikes and Kellen. I love watching him and knowing that will be us next year. I'm still feeling pretty good. Getting more belly aches, but they say they are just growing pains, making room for Cody to grow and growing he is..........

23 Weeks - Introducing Cody Preston Bautz

After many weeks and months of name searching we have finally decided on our sons name. Cody Preston Bautz. Preston is my grandfathers name and Cody is something we both liked. It's funny, as soon as we decided our little guys name he started moving all about, as if to say, yippee, I love my name. Now I feel him everytime I eat something yummy(which is often). I haven't really had cravings per say, just when I see something that looks good, I have it. But everything looks good. hahaha.

My books says that Cody can hear sounds and noises now, so Craig and I talk to him every night. It's so cute to see him talking to my belly

I'm still feeling good, just a few back pains. Thanks goodness for my body pillow, without this I know I would be feeling much worse. I'm still getting to the gym a few days a week and staying active, though it is getting harder to get out bed and off the couch. So far, I can't complain, except for some belly growing pains and back aches, I've had it pretty easy, though the third trimester is right around the corner and I know this will all change very quickly.

21 Weeks - Happy New Year

We've been very busy in the last couple of weeks. We spent Christmas with Matt, Amber, her family and the pups. I was very nice. I've been hearing about how good fried Turkey was but WOW, it was so delicious. After Christmas we went to Busch Gardens for the weekend. We got a really good deal on tickets. Craig rode all the rides and while I was able to ride the Safari Train and saw all the animals. It was fun. We also purchased a bunch of things for the baby's room.

I felt the baby move for the first time this week. I think he likes juice. I went for my monthly check-up and ultrasound. Right after the ultrasound I was waiting for the doc to come in and all of a sudden I felt these little pokes in my belly. It was amazing. Since then, I have felt him a few more times. My book says that from now I may start to see a pattern. We still don't have a definite name, but we are close.
