welcome to our world

hello friends. i just got home from the hospital and am only here for a few moments to put these pictures up here so that all of you can meet our new baby boy:

caedmon charles milinovich.


here is his first picture. right after delivery.


this is him on the scale. you might be able to see that he weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces (exactly a pound less than jack). he was also 20 inches long.


my mom and dad are in town, which is a huge help, and they brought jack in to meet his baby brother. here he is with his pappy holding cade.



there's me. the proud papa. i cried like a baby when he emerged. i'm such a softie. i can't believe how little and light he is. i guess i forgot. he has a little bit of hair, and its red! he's got a much lighter complection than jack did when he was born, and his eyes are blue. i've been calling him my little irishman!





here's cade with his mommy. she did an awesome job all through labor, and i'm proud of her. she looks beautiful and is feeling much better than she did after delivering jack.
so, we are elated. thank you all for your prayers and support. i probably won't be posting for a couple of more days, but check back in on friday or saturday for more info.
peace,
greg.

Woohoo - pictures! He's beautiful - I loved seeing Jack holding his baby brother. Before you know it they'll be wrestling each other and rough housing - like my two have decided to do lately - hopefully it's not for another year or so, but you never know with boys. Shannon looks great of course! Enjoy these next few chaotic weeks/months - I found they fly by in the blink of an eye...

Congratulations Greg! Another redhead in the family.We are very excited for you. It is amazing how quickly we forget how small and light newborns are. Shannon looks wonderful, as well as Caedmon. Give him a kiss from all of us.

greg,
What a beautiful baby! He's really gorgeous! Congratulations! And I'm so glad it went better for Shannon this time around. I can't wait to get all the gory details, but I'll let Shannon do that!! :)What can I say, I'm a birth junkie.
Way to go!

bad haircuts (for a laugh)

everybody needs to laugh.  one good way i have found to make that happen is to do a simple google image search for 'bad haircut.'  when you do so, some of the following gems show up.  thankfully, my 9th grade school picture does NOT show up.  otherwise, it would certianly make this list!  please laugh freely and without inhibition.  thank you and have a nice day. 

happiness is dry underwear

we started potty training jack on thursday. we followed a program called POTTY TRAIN IN ONE DAY, which, by the way, i think is kind of crazy. i mean, if someone were to offer you a book called, "ACHIEVE WORLD PEACE IN ONE DAY" i don't think you would take it seriously. and yet here we are, trying to accomplish an equally daunting task in one 24-hour period. it is intense. the day is shrouded in a lie because as soon as your happily diapered child wakes up you tell him that it is a big party. we had balloons and streamers and noisemakers and silly string - all the trappings of a legitimate party. but it is most certainly not a party. it is a hellishly exhausting day. as soon as jack got out of bed, we gave him a present: an anatomically correct doll that wets himself. jack named him quincy. several times quincy successfully peed in the potty and even had an accident or two in his "big boy underwear." he also dropped a deuce that looked and smelled sus

the crucifixion of Robert Lewis

  "the crucifixion of Robert Lewis" mixed media collage with leaves, acrylic paint, and found objects by gregory a milinovich october 2023 this october i was invited to participate in a three day trip which was called a "pilgrimage of pain and hope."  while that may not sound super exciting to many of you, it actually really intrigued me.  i am the kind of person that wants to feel big feelings, and i am drawn to the deep places, so  i was interested in traveling to the scranton area, where the trip was planned, to see what it might look like to be a pilgrim that was wide-eyed and listening to the pain and the hope in the stories of others.   this trip included hearing the stories of immigrants to the northeastern pennsylvania area, and the work in the coal mines that many of them did.  it included hearing from folks who are working for housing justice and equity in downtown scranton.  it included hearing from those indigenous people who first inhabited that land.
