The Stickley family adventures started in Hawaii in 2005 when Cris and Emilie were married. The real excitement began in May 2008, when Nova was born. 2 short months later, our little June-Bug joined the family from all the way in Vietnam. The next few crazy years included Emilie being deployed to Afghanistan, while Cris and the girls moved back to Hawaii, then a long year of living apart (and a lot of trips across the Pacific Ocean), while Emilie remained in Colorado to complete her Army committment, and Cris had to stay in Hawaii for his job at the University.

In the summer of 2012, little Jude joined our family, and the whole gang reunited for good in Hawaii!

Follow our adventures, as we try to keep track of life with our 3 crazy kids, while keeping our friends and family updated on the happenings here in Hawaii!

NEW PICTURES!

and we are IN LOVE with this little cutie. She has changed sooooo much from her initial referral picture (it must have been when she was only a few weeks old).

Some Little things I've noticed:
She lost her hair (or maybe it was shaved, a very common practice in the orphanages)
she's a total little chub! Her cheeks are so chubby and cute
She's really alert, and seems to be enjoying her tummy time!

anyway, cris and I have been looking at her pictures and oooohing and ahhhing over how adorable she is. i just can't wait to bring her home!
