Keegan and Mom arrived home this morning. Keegan is getting his rest so he can play this his new friend Luke Byman who arrived today. Congratulations Allison & Matt we can't wait to meet Luke. 

Happy Grandparents-counting fingers and toes. He's got Grandpa beat already! 

 

 

 

Farrell and Keegan would like to thank everybody for their help and support while he was preparing to enter this world. As you can see they are very happy together. 

 

Hello Everybody!! Keegan Alexander Pollard arrived 7/8/2006 at 4:36 PM. He measured 20 inches and 6.118 lbs. Everything is well. We are all resting today at Christus St. Catherines. We might come home today if the hospital does not have the World Cup Finals. How can you have name like Keegan and not watch the finals. If they do then we will be back home tomorrow.  

Just In Time. Grandpa Bill arrived yesterday with handmade cradle for baby pollard, and some other goodies. We had a wonderful meal last night with Bill at Brenner's Steakhouse to celebrate a late Father's Day. We woke up this morning with some contractions. Our Doula is now at our house. We are going to wait a little before we head off to hospital. We will keep everybody posted. Angus

Over the weekend, we had a mini Southampton College reunion with Shannon, Nikki and Ruthie. Fun to have all the girls together again. Can you believe it's been 13 years since we met? 

I bartered with Nikki for some of her professional photographs while she was in Texas for the weekend - in return, she got a steak dinner from Saltgrass, and her first taste of Texas Beer, Shiner Bock. It is great to have some pictures to memorialize this belly - Nikki is truly so incredibly talented.  

The belly, big belly.  

My personal favorite - if you look close, you can see baby Pollard's butt, back, ??? above my belly button and to the right of the tatoo. I am holding out hope that is not a head! 

Shannon and Nikki came for a visit this weekend while Angus was at Black Belt Camp in Alabama. I wanted to have back up in case baby Pollard decided to make his debut early. No such luck! I am clearly looking huge in this picture - have you seen a fatter face than mine right now? Nikki and Shannon are both doing great, and look great as well. We had a great time - can't wait to have them back after the baby is born. 

Mac was happy to have company too. He sits in front of the guestroom where Shannon slept, just hoping that she will come out in the morning.  

Worn out after all the present opening and festivities. Everyone has been so kind and generous. It's great to bring a child into the world when you have so many great friends and support! 

Wondering how a kid that will fit in this outfit can possibly be inside me? Kianoush gave our son some beautiful little outfits - I will definitely have a well dressed kid! 

Pector running the games - fun stuff: baby bingo and a quiz to see who knew me the best. The MS150 question was the stumper, and that Angus is Irish, not Scottish. "Uncle" Chris from Orange even made an appearance on the quiz!  

I got more pictures from my Baker shower - thanks Michelle! Here are Valerie and Becca hamming it up while Mandy plays the "what baby food is it" game. Glad I didn't have to taste those foods! 

The law school ladies (Barry, Allison, Stacy and Kelly) hosted a great shower at Allison's house in Pearland! It was so much fun. Interesting to see where we all are 6 years after starting law school together. Great that we've stayed such good friends. I really look forward to many years of friendship with these ladies.
