Another Confession...
This is what the girls did (as I watched and savored) last night while daddy worked on the house. As I mentioned before we are all out of furniture here at the rental house which makes for prime dancing room. Little Raiger had to partake too. It was her first "dancing" experience. She loved being a part of the festivities. She also enjoyed eating the paint, which thankfully was non-toxic. I do believe the girls have become ballerinas by day and artists by night!!
Watching them "dance" about the house and "paint" together gave me such a peace about the third Stickler baby which is due in July (on Raiger's birthday)!! I've had some reservations about posting our news and wanted to be sensitive to my handfuls of friends who so strongly desire to have babies. I am constantly in awe of the gift of life and continually give thanks and honor to God for the blessing; never once taking it for granted. Besides starving to death and feeling as though I could sleep all day... I'm doing pretty good. Keeping up with the girls will probably make the next 8 months fly by. Now we're all the more ready to be in that house!!

Congratulations Darby and Justin! I've been wondering if you wanted more children, now I know: )! I love the pictures of Paige and Morgan in their little outfits painting. They seem like the best of friends. I can remember you at Marshall's shower at your mother in law's house...you were pregnant with Morgan and you could hardly keep your eyes open. I was the same way when I was newly pregnant, I had no idea I was pregnant and I was getting so worried because all I wanted to do was sleep. It's funny what pregnancy does to you: )! I hope you enjoy this time!
Darby & Justin- congratulations!! I can't wait to meet Stickler #5!! What a HUGE gift!
I am so excited ! Can't wait for another beautiful Stickler baby to read about! Happy Thanksgiving!
