CINCO!

Can you believe it? 

The little giffords will be adding yet another Gifflet to the fold, due mid-June 2012.  That puts his/her estimated arrival at just 17 months after older brother Cade's birthday.  (Saying "older brother Cade" makes me smile.)  While we weren't exactly planning for this arrival, we could not be more excited about this amazing blessing God has given us.  We can't wait to meet you, Cinco!

halloween in the 'brook

 In what has become an annual tradition, we spent this Halloween with some great friends trick-or-treating in Forest Brook.  (And I forgot my camera.  These were all taken with my phone - which is why I don't have any great pics.)  Same crew as last year, plus one new little shark Gifford.  I'm not sure who has more fun when we get together:  the kids or their parents.  Thank you, Schwalbs, for always being amazing hosts!

a little boogie

No - not the gross kind! The dancing kind! Some little darling in our house likes to move it, move it each and every time he hears music. I love it, love it!
