Officially

BOY TRAPPED!
I first heard this expression a few years ago from my niece, as well as my mom and sister Tammy {who are both first grade teachers} Apparently it is when you have a boy sitting on both sides of you at school or such meaning you are trapped by boys on both sides. {or girl trapped if it was the reverse situation}
Well I am officially there I've got Brock on one side, Baby Nicholas on the other and Ryszard keeping us all together. Yes! I am officially:
Boy trapped and Loving it!

HE'S HERE! FINALLY!!!

The long awaited and much anticipated arrival of Brock's Tag-Team Partner and younger brother has finally occurred! Nicholas Hayden Milewski joined our Eternal Family and was born today at 4:07pm Eastern Standard Time, weighing 8lbs-7oz's and measuring at 21 inches long. Both boys had nearly identical stats at birth. Brock and Nicholas were both 21 inches long and Nicholas beat Brock in weight by 1 oz. (Brock weighed in at 8lbs-6oz's at birth.)

Both Baby Nicholas and Mommy are doing great. Jocelyn is looking and feeling really well and Nicholas already had his first bath, and even managed to show off a feat of strength by lifting his head and pushing himself up while on his tummy after his bath which impressed everyone watching.

I don't know what the chances are of winning the lottery jackpot once, let alone twice, or three times in one's lifetime, but I've heard that you have a better chance of getting attacked by a Polar Bear and Grizzly Bear in the same day or getting bit by a shark while on land than you do at winning the lottery, but I definitely feel extremely lucky and very blessed and like I just won the lottery jackpot for at least the third time in my life. (The other two times being when Brock was born and when Jocelyn and I were married and sealed to one another in the San Diego Temple for Time and All Eternity.)
Words alone can not even begin to describe the joy and thankfulness I have in my heart for being blessed with and entrusted with caring for such a sweet and precious soul like Nicholas from our Father In Heaven. I guess it's like I just won the lottery again, for the third time, only better!!!

Climbing Fun At The Children's Museum.


Well it was fun for Brock anyway. I on the other hand got a bit claustrophobic and a bit afraid that I would climb into a place and not be able to find my way out. So instead I let Brock run and jump and climb on his own. He did get frustrated a few times, but was able to get himself out of the crazy climbing structure, that is until we were just about ready to leave and he decided to climb all the way to the top. I was a bit worried then because I just knew he would get stuck somewhere and I would have to climb up there after him, and let me tell you at this point in my pregnancy that would not be fun {baby is due on Monday!}
Slowly he made his way down one curvy crazy ramp and then another. I was relieved and sat down to wait for him to make it down the rest of the curvy ramps, {5 more to go,} but a few seconds later I heard his frustrated cry I looked up and sure enough he was stuck in an extras curvy section and just couldn't get himself out. So up the flight of stairs I went to fetch my little boy. I could barely fit inside this little section and could only grab a hold of his fingers so as soon as I made contact with them I grabbed a hold and pulled him up closer. That was enough for me! We were out of there. Brock of course wanted to play more, but until after baby arrives I think I'll stick to something a little less crazy!

It wasn't all climbing fun Brock did find a little defibrillator that sparked his interest too!

snow!

Brock loves to be outside the snow does not slow him down, but it does me. I'm not one to play in the snow, one it's cold, two it's wet and three No way am I gonna chase after Brock while 39 weeks pregnant in the cold wet snow! But I did capture this picture of Brock on our way inside yesterday.

Round and rounds....

That's what we call ceiling fans around here. The other day when I stopped by Lowes to pay a bill but Brock got side tracked and ran off to his own little heaven!
the ceiling fan section. He seriously loves ceiling fans, why??? I haven't got a clue! but it makes him happy to just look at all the round and rounds. And so yes! I indulge him..... at least for a few minutes and then we wave bye bye and we're off to our next adventure!
