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!

i'm giving away the swamp

so this is a collage called swamp. i made it in february of last year. it is currently framed in a homemade, hand-painted frame. it is paper collage on a book binding panel. it is 7" x 10". and i am giving it away. i've been wanting to have a blog giveaway for some time, and the time has finally arrived. here's how it works. all you need to do is leave a comment on this post. by leaving a comment you are automatically entered into the contest (as long as your comment offers a way for me to get in touch with you, or you know that i know you). the contest will be open until next wednesday at noon, eastern standard time. at that time the contest will officially be closed and i will pick a random number. the person whose comment matches that number wins! for example, if i happen to pick the number 33, the thirty-third comment will win. oh, and one more rule: you can only post ONCE. if you win, i will send you the collage, signed by me, the artist, free of c...

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.

affirmed

i cannot express today the feeling i have. this picture that i found sort of expresses it but not really. for the last ten years i have poured myself into this vocation, daring to believe that God, the very God of all creation, has called me, even me, to this work. along the way many have affirmed me in this journey, but i have continued to work for the ultimate affirmation, ordination as an elder in the united methodist church. and now i have it. after two grueling (and i mean grueling in every possible sense, really) days i recieved the call today that the board voted to recommend me to the annual conference for ordination as an elder. and as i have already said, i cannot even begin to express the emotion i feel with words like relief, joy and satisfaction. there will be plenty of time for me to reflect on this and i will have more to say about it as i do that reflecting, but today is really a day for celebrating for me, and for thanking those who have journeyed with me and s...
