Final Year!!
OK...So obviously I am not really good at keeping my blog updated, I will try to be better...really though not much has changed. We are back in Claremont again for the third and final year of Aarons Law School experience. I will be sad to leave this ares though since there is so much to do here. I mean you really can't complain when you live within 30 minutes of Disneyland (3 hours if you hit traffic, but thats another story!!), 30 minutes of the beach, great shopping, and some great parks to play at.
Our biggest event is this past weekend when Aaron was gone in Kentucky for the Ryder Cup. For all you non golfers out there that is where USA plays Europe in a 3 day golf tournament. We ahev great friends, Nate and Amy Craig who live there and so he was hooked up with some free tickets to go watch on saturday. We do't have any pictures of the players or anything since he was not allowed to take his phone or a camera into the tournament, but he had a great time.
We had a lot of fun here too. Friday we went to Disneyland, saturday we played at the park and then went to McDonalds for dinner and played on their great play area with some other friends, Amy and Shane.
Other news....Preston started Preschool a few weeks ago at the Claremont Baptist Nursery School on Tuesday and Thursday mornings for 3 hours. He has a great teacher, Mrs Davila, and some great kids in his class. He has laready learned so much in the three weeks that he has been going. He really looks forward to going to school each week. It is so much fin to hear about all the fun things he does each day and to be able to help him solidify all these things in his mind and help with homework. What a big bboy he is.
Braden has started potty training. He is doing great. He just wants to be a big boy like his brother so bad. It is adorable that he admires him so much. When Preston is at school, Braden is so upset and wants to go with him. He sees him having all this fun and just wants so bad to go. He tells me" I no cry, I go to school too!" So cute.
Addison, well she is Addison, feisty as ever. She is a happy little girl and so much fun to be around. I can't beleive that she is 17 months already....wow where did that time go. She is a little peanut and just is so active chasing her brothers, because she is not being left behind in anything, that even though she eats all day, she is only in the 2nd percentile for her weight. We have to add butter to everything she eats and powdered breakfast to her milk to bulk her up a little.
We are greatful for our three little munchkins that keep us busy and doing good things!

Ok...so the castleton family finally created a blog...I am still not sure if I am doing this right, but hopefully this will keep us connected to a lot more people. I read all my friends blogs all the time and I think that is why I don't have time to create my own one...or perhaps the fact that I have four kids under 4 and a small two bedroom apartment, where our computer is in one of the rooms with our kids...so when they go to bed I can't get on the computer and when they are awake...well just try finding a spare minute to write on this...anyhow... one day I will havae this thing figured out...
Right now, we are in Merced, Ca for the summer for yet another summer of Aarons law clerkship with Callister and Hendricks law firm (where he will be working after school is over next summer). He practices all sorts of law with this firm, but mainly for now is the "summer boy" and gets all the projects no-one else wants! However, it pays the bills and gives him experience...we can't wait until teh bar is passed and he gets a real pay check.
I stay at home with the kids and try to keep them and our summer apartment organized. Life is great. Preston FINALLY has figured out the poop on the potty thing (that is a whole different story, which coves the span of about a year and a half!!! yeah it is a great story). He is 4 and is getting excited to start pre school next year. He love swimming, baseball, basketball and going on dates with either Mom or Dad...he can'tt wait to go see Kung Fu Panda...
Braden is 2 and is starting to make sense whwen he speaks. He is our snuggle bug turned bully and antagonist to older brother Preston. He really is sweet most of the time. He still has fabulous cheeks to munch on and is truly a pleasure to be around.
Addi is 1 and is trying her hardest to walk. She will take about 5-6 steps on her own, but will walk around all day holding onto one finger..needless to say my back is killing me.
We truly have a fabulous family, and I am loving being a mother! It really id the greatest and most challenging blessing I have ever had!
Life is great.
