Busy Week!

Well...not for everyone...mostly Mara.  Mara is in the middle of her 13 straight days of work on the inpatient wards, so she's ready for this month to be over!  She likes the work, just lack of days off isn't much fun...:)
With Mara working so much lately Rohan has had some full days of Dad-Time.  I still am amazed at the stuff he learns and the things he puts together in his mind.  We caught him a couple of times playing with his trains and letting his imagination run wild...pretty fun to see...:)  There are a couple videos on our YouTube page, and I posted one of them below.  It's 4 minutes long, but he did this for over an hour.  Rohan has also been learning to pedal his bike so that's been interesting.  He hasn't quite caught on yet, but there are flashes where it looks like he know what to do.
Wednesday we met Heather & John and some friends for John's birthday (& Mary's).  We had a great dinner at Golden Budda before heading to our softball game this week.  I am still "D League MVP"...:)  In a related note, we are super excited that the Brewers clinched the NL Central division!  There is a chance, if the Cardinals take the wild card, that Arizona would play 2 games in in Milwaukee and then the Brewers would come here!  John said he has tickets to the first game in AZ, so it should be pretty awesome if Milwaukee is here!  If not we'll see the Phillies destroy everything in their path...
Saturday (Mara had to work all day) I went over to Greg & Nico's to let Rohan spend some time with Mila and we all watched the Hawkeyes beat up on ULM.  Afterwards Rohan took a near 5hr nap and I got some yard work and house stuff done in the meantime.  Sunday was more of the same...Mara worked and Rohan and I watched football, played outside, and caught a little baseball in there too.
All in all a good week, but an exhausting one for everyone! :)  The weather is getting pretty nice out and we can't wait to be outside all the time on the weekends and explore more of the parks in our new area!

I LOVE the video of ROhan counting on his fingers. It does look like he has picked up a few gang signs. I would be questioning your daycare.
