Seth and Katie set the date
Seth and Katie have set the date! July 11, 2009 will be the day that Seth and Katie get married! WooHoo! We are happy and excited for them and cannot wait until the wedding....it's about time Seth (after all 30 is fast approaching!) and you are behind on the baby schedule.....we are looking forward to grandchild #7 from you and Katie....all in good time! After all a woman of 29 with 6 grandchildren is doing pretty good! Yeah me! Did I mention that I love big families and babies like no other woman in this world!?!
Larkin earned his Yellow Belt and talked Mom into taking TaekWondo
Larkin earned his yellow belt in TaekWondo at KUMC Thursday night. He is doing very well in TaekWondo. His favorite part is that when I started taking TaekWondo with him (I've been to 4 classes now and have 2 stripes ---that I earned in my 2nd class)....well, he outranks me and I have to call him SIR!
He also loves telling everyone my true age (since I tell everyone that I am 29 with 6 grandchildren).... He sings this song.....Momma's 44, and he sings it over and over and over again! Well, not anymore as Thursday was also my birthday. Brandon Luke said it couldn't be my birthday because I didn't have a cake! How true.....so I just decided to skip this one!
Larkin is getting better about going to school and received his first "grade card".....it was just as we expected.....it was excellent with a little comment about "him talking too much!" Imagine that!

Jonathan Duran Wade
Jonathan Duran Wade was born September 7, 2008 at 2:09 pm. He weighed 6 lbs, 13 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long at birth. He is doing great and he is so handsome! Dark hair and Dark blue eyes. I prayed for months that Brandy's eyes would turn brown and at 18 months, they finally turned brown (from blue to hazel to brown!) Brooklyn has blue eyes, Brandon has hazel eyes, Taylor has brown eyes, and Jonathan.....we'll see. How awesome to have children with all different colors of eyes! It is just way cool! Jonathan will have to be the tie breaker! I'm thinking brown like Mommy. Anyway he is just so darn cute! Mommy is on the road the recovery and thank goodness Christy is here...she has been a life saver!
Baby Jonathan sucking his fingers,.....here's your sign....."hurry up and take me to my Mommy!"
Brandon, Brooklyn, Taylor, and Larkin looking in to see Baby Jonathan.....
Taye Bug is just happy to see Mommy!
Does she look like a woman who just gave birth?
Daddy looks a little overwhelmed and ready to go home!!!!....
Baby boy looks happy and satisfied!
Sissy looks tickled to be holding another baby brother!
Brandon Luke looks like he will be a great big brother!

About Me
- The Casteel's
- I hope you enjoy our blog. I try to keep it updated, but we are growing and growing up so fast that it is hard to keep up with. AND, I don't want to miss a moment. I went back to college at 30, with 2 children in tow... I graduated with my Pharm.D. in 1999. I married the best husband and father in the world and my best friend in 1999. I became a Mother again in 2003 to the most wonderful little boy. I also became a grandmother 10 weeks before my son was born to twins! Yes, Grandma had a baby! Thank God for this life and all of our wonderful family!
