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!

counting the days

Tuesday i go back to work full time. I am pretty much dreading it. There are some things about work I am looking forward to, but i really can't imagine leaving baby Nova all day. We have spent every second together for the last 6 weeks, so it's going to be kind of a shock for both of us when Tuesday rolls around.

We got an adorable gift in the mail from my dear friend Bharani. We have been friends since i started my first day of undergrad. She sent the cutest blanket! We absolutely love it. Thanks Bharani!



Also, here is a picture of Nova enjoying her favorite activity...sleeping in her swing!Check out those chubby cheeks!

I'm so glad you got the blanket. It's made by Lisa...she's obviously been sewing a long time! Nova is so cute! I am excited for you for all your big events this spring/summer! Maybe we'll see you in Chicago?!? (but must be hard with your schedule)
