Our Toad

While working in our yard, Tucker and I found a toad (and later Angela found toad eggs). All of the wildlife we have seen and heard around our home has been really nice. We also also been hearing an owl, which we had yet to see.

Going for a walk

Going for a walk

We took a short walk down our street. It's so beautiful and peaceful. We found a pretty amazing bee on the way, we think it is a carpenter bee. Fortunately, it wasn't still alive to scare us.

Gettin Big - 5

39 weeks now - I don't think I look that much different anymore. I'm sure I'm growing though. This will be the last picture of me pregnant. I'm scheduled to be induced on Sunday, the 26th. The 26th was the original due

Good Food

This is a recipe I made recently and want to share it on the blog cause it is YUMMAY. It's basically breaded chicken stuffed with a spinach-cheese mixture. I got the recipe off of Kraftfoods.com. It's called "Chicken Parmesan Bundles". All I did

Yay.....

Do you know how long I"ve been waiting for this? That baby 'ticker' thing up there finally says 'This is it!' After all these months of checking the progress of the baby and just waiting for this pregnancy to be done, it's

Gettin Big - 4

38 weeks now. Just had an ultrasound yesterday. The baby looks perfect as can be, and the doctor says the weight is around 7 lbs, 7 oz. right now. My feet and ankles are getting more and more swollen everyday, probably from increasing weight. Everything is normal normal normal, which

Heaviness

Ahhh, sitting down is a luxury. Lying down is an even greater luxury. They both go sour after a while though (when I'm this pregnant).

Gettin' Big 3

Ok, I posted three pictures of me cause clothes made me look different and I was slouching in one picture, but whatever. (I say 'whatever' constantly now, just in the last few days. Why?) You get to see three pictures of my bigness at 37 weeks. Things are

Eating Machine

Sorry, no pictures for this post, just words. I have become an eating machine! Everytime I eat, I don't quite get that full feeling, so I can just keep eating! Is this the body's way of putting on the weight in the last days of pregnosity?

Gettin' Big - 2

Gettin' Big - 2

Can you see if I'm bigger than I was in the previous post? Comments Sofia's Primary Ideas (Sep 05, 2010): Nice dress! Super pretty print! Angela (Sep 03, 2010): yeah, it looks more filled out and rounder, in the previous post, the belly looks more pointy-ish.

Gettin' Big

I included both sides of me, cause I seem to look smaller in the lower picture..... Keith caught me in an excited moment. I'm just so happy to be getting bigger and more uncomfortable everyday! Comments Yo' Mama (Aug 29, 2010): You are fantastic! You look beautiful!

Getting ready for baby

Getting ready for baby

Here is the new baby quilt Joanna helped me put together in just this past week. All I did was go buy the fabric (isn't it the cutest?) and Joanna cut the pieces and sewed them together and quilted it. (She quilted it so beautifully, it has that

Ummmm, It's a Girl

Just to follow up on the previous post, we're pretty sure we're having a girl this time around. I just went in for an appointment and the doctor did a quick ultrasound, and I did see those three lines that you're supposed to see

Mother's Day

These are just a couple of things I got on Mother's Day: a See's candy bar and a mug. Carson gave me the mug, along with a packet of hot cocoa and a little package of mini muffins, which I ate for breakfast. I think the

We Just Don't Know!

I had the BIG ultrasound today, where hopefully you can see the baby's gender, but it didn't work out that way. The baby was all scrunched up and legs were pretty close together through the whole ultrasound, so they couldn't really say for sure.

Flying Black Olives

I. Love. Bumblebees. They kind of scare me, but I am fascinated by them. I just think they're so cool to look at and they're so big and fuzzy. I think the bee in this video is a carpenter bee. Yes, that's Tucker screaming

A Childs Love...

A Childs Love...

Angela was relaxing on the floor when Tucker gave her a hug. I had to take a couple picts.

Mom and the boys

Mom and the boys

Mom and the boys.......I know, I look a little tired. That's what happens with a three-month-old! Comments Anonymous (Nov 15, 2008): Hello, my name is Angela, and I was just looking to see who had "keithandangela.blogspot.com" because I wanted that name and it

Farrari Farms Pumpkin Patch

Farrari Farms Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Ferrari Farms Pumpkin patch with Michelle on Thursday. We picked out the pumpkins we would carve for Halloween (picture in the next post). They have a bounce house, games, farm animals, and a hayride for the kiddies - all with a nice harvesty atmosphere for the

Beautiful Eyes

Angela has the most beautful eyes I have ever seen. Luckily, our children inherited that trait from her. Both have amazing eyes -- Carson's brown and Tucker's blue. At dinner time, Tucker was furious. Nothing I did could calm him. Eventually, Angela took pity and took

Mother and Child

Mother and Child

We braved the Farmer's Market with both Carson and Tucker tonight. It went really well. While we ate some delicious Thai food, some ladies at the next table couldn't get enough of Tucker. I know I said it before, but I love how events like this

Tired Family

We've quickly come to realize how tiring two children can be. We appreciate all of the meals, gifts, and support from family, friends, members of the church, and members of the mom's club. It has really made a difference.

Proud Papa

Although I had to work today, I loved the opportunity to spend a few hours in the hospital with Baby and Angela. The hospital room is quite large and surprisingly, Angela is loving the food. The nurses have been incredible; maybe even too good -- every few minutes they are

Finally Here!

Baby Knight was born this morning (Sunday July 13, 2008) at 11:36am; 9lbs 2 oz, ~21" long. He is a happy little boy with a big Aksland family dimple in his chin. He definitely has more of the Aksland family genes.

Like a Race Car Man (aka Baby on the Way)!

Angela went into labor at 1:00am this morning. Carson was so good when we woke him up at 2:30am -- didn't complain at all. As we were driving (and accelerating pretty quickly), Carson said, "You're like a race car man!" We dropped
