Thursday, October 27, 2011. 4 years and 2 months ago. It's my little brother's turn! He called and we actually spoke for a good five minutes. And he constructed full sentences, and even asked me questions. After a couple of minutes of shock and wonderment, I finally realized he was probably calling because he was leaving. And he'll be gone for two years. I think I'll be doing a lot of reminiscing. Thursday, October 20, 2011. But I'm starting to break free! Doing better than I think I am? Andit's fun bein...

The Trenerowski's: March 2015
http://katieandmichal.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 29, 2015. The trickiest part about adding another child to my life has been nap time. I got into the lazy habit of napping with Lily while I was pregnant, and now that I have a newborn, I try to nap with her again if. I can get baby Marco to cooperate and nap at the same time. When Lily wakes up from her nap, I never know what kind of mood she's going to be in. Sometimes she is happy. Sometimes she is cranky. Sometimes she is cuddly. Sometimes she is goofy. And sometimes she is all the above.

The Trenerowski's: Marco's 6 Month Doctor Appointment
http://katieandmichal.blogspot.com/2015/08/marcos-6-month-doctor-appointment.html
Friday, August 7, 2015. Marco's 6 Month Doctor Appointment. On July 29, Marco had his six month wellness check up. His stats quite surprised me. Height = 25.83" (65.6 cm) 13%. Weight = 15 lb 9 oz (7.059 kg) 12%. Head Circumference = 43.5 cm (17.13 in) 51%. Because he is so small for his age I have to start bringing Marco in monthly to make sure he's growing properly, they just don't want his weight to drop but steadily increase. The doc checked out his new tooth and made sure everything was in order.

The Trenerowski's: August 2015
http://katieandmichal.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 22, 2015. Lily 2.5 Year Dr. Appointment. August 14 - Lily had her 2.5 year wellness checkup to make sure that she is aging properly. She was such a champ at getting measured. She didn't put up a fight and kept saying, "Look at me Mommy. Getting checked.". For some reason I didn't get a print out of her stats, so I don't know what percentile she's in and I'm going to have to edit this post when I do find out what they are. Height = 36.75 in (93.345cm) %. Head Circumference = cm ( in) %.

Tuesday, June 5, 2012. Just a day in the life. I'm post-dating this to the actual time of the blessed event.). I found a little surprise when I got back from a LOVELY wedding in California! Well, more accurately, I smelled one.(I will say, I find it fascinating that, even without formal training or prior experience, the recognition of the smell of death is somehow innate.). Maybe fleas are the worst, but this was definitely the grossest. Dead mouse. under. the. fridge. What I was not prepared for. Simple...

checking my premises: The inner struggle
http://pachugna.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-inner-struggle.html
Sunday, August 26, 2012. I have always loved this story (and various versions of it that I've heard/read). Also, it's on my sister's fridge. Most sources give it the title "Two Wolves."). An old Indian Grandfather said to his grandson who came to him with anger at a friend who had done him an injustice. There is a battle that goes on inside us all. It is as if there are two wolves battling inside each of us. The other wolf is Evil. The littlest thing will set him into a fit of temper. He fights every...

Thursday, December 6, 2012. On how my brain is on fire. Not in an elegant, poetic way, but more like.I'm exhausted trying to run around inside my head exasperatedly extinguishing fires just as more ignite. Reflected in that analogy is one of my greatest struggles- I am myself, but I also see myself extinguishing fires. I am also the one setting the fires. Why is it so hard to let myself make mistakes? To just be where I am, instead of placing some unknown, abstract set of expectations on myself? Also- he...

Tuesday, March 5, 2013. But love, even with its burden and its intense vulnerability, never just. Than pain. Because it doesn't just cover up or distract from pain. I feel like love actually transforms the loneliness (or what have you- mine is loneliness) by imbuing it with meaning, so it doesn't even feel like a burden at all. And every time I think I understand it, God shows me how much more there is to learn about love. And now it's happening again. Forever :). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Trenerowski's: Other July Outings
http://katieandmichal.blogspot.com/2015/08/other-july-outings.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2015. In July we tried to pack a lot of fun things in for the kids, but not all of them merited their own blog post. On July 4, we headed out to the Disney Store at the Concord Mall about 60-90 minutes away from where we live. It was either this or watching a parade, and we thought that Lily might be more excited to see Disney Characters than classic cars drive down the street. Boy were we right! So we double dipped and went for lunch and. I was lucky enough to be sitting next to Lily...

Tuesday, July 24, 2012. While Hume articulates the is-ought problem. I think mine might actually be the opposite. The ought. I think, might be more real to me than the is. As much as I focus on and talk about process- how becoming. Is the point and part of life to be enjoyed and experienced, more than the final product- I am realizing just how much I stumble on and fight with what is. Because I cannot understand why things aren't as they ought. To be, not realizing that what is. Thursday, July 19, 2012.
