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!

You think things are crazy now....

Just wait until September...
We are about to venture into dangerous territory, where kids outnumber parents! The timing is a bit....interesting....but, i guess we never really do things the easy way!  My due date is September 29, and I was supposed to be getting out of the Army on October 1st.  Well, apparently you can't actually get out of the Army while on any type of convalescent leave, so i will actually be extending my army time by a couple of months to get me through the postpartum period. I am crossing my fingers that some things will fall into place for me to be able to go to Hawaii for the delivery, but we will have to see about that as the time gets closer. 

Anyway, we are just loving our family time together. We took the girls to the melting pot this weekend to tell them the exciting news, and both girls are very excited to have a new little sister or brother.  Of course i have been ultrasounding myself on pretty much a daily basis to see if i can tell if it is as boy or a girl, but 13 weeks is just a bit too early, so hopefully i will be able to tell before the continuous exposure to ultrasound give the baby 3 heads.  ok, ok, so that's technically impossible, but nonetheless, I am very anxious to know if Daddy is going to have a household full of girls to handle :)
