Jay and I had some fun last night with the Codester.
Don’t get me wrong…we always have fun with our favorite, wacky fur ball. I mean, just look at that face.
But as we were playing with some of his fetch toys, I realized that he had (among many others) a blue one and a red one out…so I thought, “Heyyyyy, how about we see if Cody can predict if Baby Tooth is a boy or a girl?!”
So I took a quick little video to see how things would go and as it turns out, it appears that Cody is quite confident in his decision.
Forgive me for the terrible, shaky video. I’m definitely not a videographer.
Obviously, Cody’s prediction is about as reliable as the groundhog is at predicting spring, but I must say that if I HAD to choose, I’m going to have to agree with him. I don’t know why, but I guess that’s just the way I’m leaning. Not much longer until we find out though!

Last Night’s Dinner
Totally random, totally delicious, and totally large. What can I say? I wanted a little bit of everything.
Included in this large meal was a tiny piece of chicken (literally, about three bites), 1/4 of an avocado, a baked sweet potato with plain CHO, a piece of cornbread,
and a small bowl of pasta fagioli.
Everything really hit the spot, despite the fact that I was all over the place.
A couple of hours later I still needed something sweet so I snacked on a jello pudding cup.
Impulse buy from the other day, and so worth it.
I also managed to get all caught up on my episodes of The Bachelor that were DVR’d last night, and all I’ll say is WOAH! Although I did see it coming towards the end of the episode, I’m still surprised?! I thought for sure she’d be down to the final two (I’m not saying who since I know two of my besties haven’t watched it yet).
Question for the Morning:
Do you ever pay attention to and/or have fun with prediction quizzes or things like that?
I certainly think they’re fun (I think I’ve taken about 5 different gender prediction quizzes) but I don’t rely on them for credible answers.

it won’t let me watch the video for some reason
its saying that its private. Your meal looks absolutely delicious though!
Awww crap…I think I fixed it though!
I think a girl! I just have felt that, but who knows! Either way girl or boy, you will have a beautiful and healthy baby!
Cody is so cute, haha! My sons pap has a cat that looks just like Cody, his name is peanut!
I can’t see the video either!
I love me some pasta fagioli. It’s been way too long since I’ve had some.
Sorry about that! It should work now
video says it is private!
It should be working now!
I can’t see the video either! I am thinking BOY for you…when do you guys find out again?
It should work now! We find out early next week
Yeah I can’t see the video either. But I am going to guess that you are having a boy!
Oh poo…I think I fixed it!
The video is private!
I think it’s fixed
I could not see the video, either. I was looking forward to learning Cody’s prediction, too!
Oh, and that dinner happens to look quite amazing, especially the soup! YUM!
It should be working now!
Aww, yay!! I think I am going to have to agree with Cody! I am thinking a boy, too
.
I always take fun little quizzes like that. Why not? And who knows…they might be true!
I can’t see the video either…:( Our cats (2 of them) slept in the nursery almost every night before Keely arrived and they are just starting to get use to her. Cohen is a cat that should probably be on anxiety pills (ha-ha) so he isn’t that friendly with anyone but me and Summer takes a beating from Keely but K is learning that we have to be nice to the kitties or they won’t be our friends.
Can’t wait to see what you are having as I have a feeling it’s a little football player…ha-ha!
It should work now!
I’m pulling for a girl! Your dinner looks delicious. I had a sweet potato last night, and once again wondered why I don’t eat them more often!
Bummer, the video doesn’t seem to be working! Regardless, the photos of Cody are too cute! I did a few fun prediction quizzes online before we found out we were having a boy. I didn’t take them seriously, but it was still fun. Most of them were right though!
Oh poo…it should be working now!
Aww your cat is too cute! I’m not really a cat lover but that is pretty precious
I hope it’s a girl!
Aw I can’t get the video to play but I think it’d be very cool if Cody’s prediction was right! I like taking silly prediction quizzes for a laugh but don’t actually rely on them.
I’m not one to believe in predictions that much, but it’s still fun to do!
As far as quizzes, the only one I really get into is the Briggs-meyer personality test. That one is just so accurate, and I end up learning a lot about the person through that test.
I have heard the Chinese gender predictor can be pretty accurate!
The husband and I tried several wives tales to figure out our baby’s gender, but the most scientifically fun one we tried was the Baking Soda Gender Test. It was accurate for us.

Cody is so cute
We (or should I say mostly I) did a lot of the quizzes for fun…most of which were hard cuz it was too early in the pregnancy to answer some of the questions. The one I like the best is the Chinese calendar prediction for gender. I did it for people I knew that already had babies to see how accurate it would be (50-50 imagine that, lol), but it was right for me! We found out we are having a boy…if you haven’t tried it yet, google it. It’s fun
My husband liked the “girls steal their mother’s beauty” wise tale…based on that I would say you are having a boy!
Cody might just be on to something – animals have a pretty good instinct for these things… I mean, Ozzy the bear predicted the Superbowl winner two years in a row, and you can’t argue with that kind of logic
In all honesty, though, games like this are always fun, regardless of whether or not they’re accurate. Excited to hear what the real outcome will be though!
haha that’s really funny! i def have fun with quizzes and predictions but never put too much weight in them!
This is so fun! Cody is a smart cat,
Have you tried the chinese gender calendar? What did it say if so?! It’s been right for a ton of people I know. I don’t know whether to believe it or not but it’s still so fun to guess
Oh man, my Dad ( who is 77…yup) SWEARS BY the horoscopes. It’s so funny, he’s like the most straightforward guy ever but reads his and mine and my siblings horoscopes every day religiously. One time I was having a heart to heart with him, and he goes, “Cass, look, you gotta read this, it’s all there, exactly.” And hands me that days astrology listings. Then he goes, “You know, I believe in the stars.” It was like the cutest, sweetest, and kind of funniest thing ever.
Love my Dad and his funny quirks.
That video of Cody is so cute. I think those quizzes are fun but like you I don’t rely on them for facts. I have taking a few so far during this pregnancy. I just can’t stand not knowing.
For both my children, all the gender prediction tests were wrong (I didn’t try a cat, haha). I hope you have a boy! I am pregnant with my second boy and they are a lot of fun.
such a cute video!
I think they are just funny, so I do them for a laugh!
P.S. Cody is adorable!!
I took tons of gender prediction quizzes and they were right.. well most of them haha. I guess there is only a 50/50 chance
haha.
I just had a gut feeling we were having a boy and I was right!
Courtney, I don’t know the accuracy rate of this, but I went back and looked at the u/s from both of my pregnancies, and this was accurate for me. If you look at your first u/s (usually around 6 weeks), look at the placenta. If it is on the right side, it’s a boy. If the placenta is on the left, it’s a girl.
Although I love Cody’s hunch, do you know cats (and dogs) are a little color blind? Apparently they see blues, purples and greys more clearly and reds / oranges are a little off their radar… Just a little trivia there, to throw in the mix!
aww, the cody video is really cute! i wonder if his prediction is correct. maybe you can somehow incorporate cody into the gender reveal, like tie a blue or pink ribbon around his collar.
I used to be sooooo superstitious and would read way too much into things! I’m excited for you guys to find out soon so we can see just how psychic Cody is
The Chinese predictor quiz and Dr. Ramzi’s theory was right! You should check it out! I thought mine was a boy the whole time, but I am having a daughter! So excited! Pink things are so much cuter
Oh yeah…and my 2 year old nephew also predicted a girl!
I might go back to my original prediction. I truly didn’t get a definitive prediction when I saw you. Btw Codester is the CUTEST!! I want to hug him!
That is too funny! I think you’re having a girl–can’t wait to see what you’re having!
Such a cute idea!! I wonder if you and Cody will be right?
I’m guessing a girl for you! Though my mother’s instinct has proven to be quite terrible
I can’t wait to find out!
I do when they tell me what they want to tell me
Love the dinner! My favourite meals are always bits and bobs especially when cornbread is included!
I stumbled upon your blog last week and love it! And I love that the cat thinks it’s a boy! I’m also pregnant – 26 weeks – and having a girl. With your sweet tooth (even though it was that way before you got preg, as was mine) I’d bet you’re having a girl! Can’t wait to hear
I’m going to side with Cody on this one
Those pictures of him are too cute! So sweet & innocent haha
I’ve never take any type of predictor quizzes before. I bet it’s pretty freaky if they’re accurate though!
When I’m pregnant I want to try all the weird little prediction things. I love stuff like that!!
hahaha. I adore the alarm on Cody’s face when you guys yell.
I CAN’T WAIT TO HEAR!
I still say girl for whatever reason! But hey, my guess is as good as Cody’s!
This is adorable! I am a cat lover so this was awesome! I think it’s going to be a girl, but maybe Cody will be right! That pudding cup looks delicious! Might need to get one!
Such an adorable video. I’m with Cody on the baby’s gender. When do you find out?
We find out on Monday but probably won’t be sharing publicly until the following week
Now that I’m having a boy (super soon), I want everyone to have a little man! Hoping your fur baby is right! I highly recommend doing a gender reveal party with your families and finding out at the same time they do. Plus, it’s a good excuse to have a yummy cake
I’m a little bias since I have a girl.
My friends and I did some prediction thing once with a thread and needle and you swing it over your hand??? lol I don’t know, it was so long ago. But so far her prediction has come true! She had a girl just like it “said”!
Cody is SOOO adorable! I can’t get over it!
Cody is such a cute little cat!
While I really liked her, I ultimately didn’t think he’d end up picking her but also thought she’d make it to the final 2. I wonder if she’ll be the next Bachelorette? Or maybe Sarah? They both are super sweet girls with pretty intense stories.
