Cody

Well Cody has turned out to be such the perfect baby. He is so sweet and handsome. Bubba and I call him Little Man because with all of his hair he really looks like a little man. We are on a nightly schedule and he only wakes up to eat once around 3-4am. and then when I wake daddy up he gets another feeding as well. We have been really blessed by this baby and I would not change my decision to do this for Bubba for anything in the world. It has been a huge change to our lives but only in the positive. We are heading off for his 1st dr appt today. I am curious to see how much he weighs now.

thanks to all of our friends and family that have been there for us! we love you and appreciate you!

May 22, 2009

well let me start with an update. You all know Cody is here. Well I wanted you guys to know that I went in that Friday to get a check on any progress and right before they were going to send us home (around 11am) Little Man's heart rate dropped from 158 to 60. The nurses came in and started me on oxygen and IV. The nurses told me they were waiting on my dr to call back with details of what she wanted us to do and said that whatever my plans were for the day, my son has made it very clear that I was not going home that day. Anyhow an hour later I was induced and four hrs later here is Cody.

Cody is here

Nothing YET

I am dilated and started to thin.....have an appt on Thursday! Doc says maybe this week but well see! I am hopeful but no full of hope! LOL

I've been having lots of contractions and pressure from little Cody but nothing consistent. I am getting excited about meeting him!
Bubba and I were married Friday May 15 th on our 1 yr anniversary and I must say -- things seem NO different here except we get to call each other Husband and Wife. It sounds kinda cool!

its more awesome to actually be his 1st wife and the woman that gets to give him his 1st child -- a son! He actually thanked me for doing this for him! This is why I love this man! He adores me and treats me so good! He's gonna make a great daddy!

WOW 36 wks

Well I am 36 wks today, I am so excited about the next chapter of my life. I cannot wait to meet Cody. I think we have everything ready for his arrival. Gotta still buy my glider and ottoman, will make breastfeeding so much easier.

I have a dr appt tomorrow so I will post an update tomorrow!
Thanks to all of our friends and family for your support! You are awesome!

35 wks today. I am very tired and was almost considering staying home and sleeping all day. I hate sitting here in this chair all day. I feel as if I am smooching my baby boy! I have my next appointment on May 13th and then I start seeing the doc every week. WOW I thought this time would never get here. Reminds me of what my dad used to say when we were halling hay....we would get down to the last one and he would say, "thats the one we've been looking for all day"

We have so much going on this month. Were getting married, having a baby, has the babyshower, and then right into June my son graduates from high school. I am so proud of him for completing the most longest 12 years of his life! WOW and to think I have to do the whole SCHOOL thing AGAIN! Thank God I have Bubba around.


I will keep it updated please feel free to leave us a comment, we love to hear from our friends and family!
