Ok.. so it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything. Actually, I just changed web hosts and updated my theme to allow for more space. So now.. I have no more excuses for a while.
Colton is now almost 8 months old. It’s crazy how fast he’s growing and learning. I love watching it. I look forward to his smile every day. Seeing him light up at the smallest things just makes my day.
Amy makes my day too. So much so.. that I married her on Saturday.

Well, it’s been a couple weeks now since I’ve been able to get on here and write… and that’s when I had my new, beautiful, sweet baby boy, Colton! 6 lbs and 11 ounces, 20 1/2 inches long and 3 weeks early on June 22nd, Colton arrived and spent the first couple weeks of his life in Intensive Care Nursery. He was having a few breathing irregularities, but it was more a “better safe than sorry” kind of thing, I do believe (though we didn’t really know that at the time!).

Colton is the new love of my life. Everyone tells me it just gets better.. and it’s almost hard to believe. He’s so wonderful. I’ve turned into a complete sap.. and I’m OK with it! I just can’t get enough of him. I love him soooo much.

Mom (Amy) was in labor for a little less than 6 hours after her water broke at home. She called to tell me.. and my heart was beating about twice as fast as normal all the way to the hospital. She did an incredible job of staying calm and keeping everything in check throughout the delivery. And now… I’m a Daddy. I still can’t believe it at times. I have the most wonderfully sweet boy I could have ever asked for. Here’s the first of what will no doubt be many videos of my new son… Colton Kastner.

Amy is at 3 cm and 100% effaced (ah yes.. the new lingo I am learning these days!). So, I am looking to be a new Dad very soon! Amy is doing great and she looks as beautiful as ever. Even more amazing has been her attitude through the whole pregnancy. She’s definitely ready to have our baby though. She thinks it will be sooner than later. I still think it will by July 12th. His due date is actually July 14th.. We shall know soon!

Wow.. I can’t believe I’ll be a Dad in another 8 weeks! Amy went to the doctor yesterday and everything is looking perfect. She’s doing pretty well overall..well, for carrying around a 4lb person in her anyway! I’m very thankful for the health of Mom and my son, Colton. I am super excited and can’t wait for him to get here! There is so much I want to do with him..

Well here we are in week 22 and everything is looking great! Amy is getting kicked by Colton pretty much daily now, but overall, it’s been a great pregancy. Here’s some pics.. as everyone keeps asking.. “What does Mom look like?!!” Well, she’s quite beautiful.. as you can see. (Click a pic for large) She’s just a baby herself.. at 27.
