What Isaac is learning this week

We feel like he's become such a bigger bear this week. I was watching him play this weekend and he was doing pretend play for the first time, moving his trucks around on the floor and making them go places instead of just throwing them, and making his airplane fly with a whooshing sound. I had a midafternoon break today and at the same time Mike texted me and said Isaac and him were at the park by my hospital. It is such a beautiful day here and we had so much fun at the park, again, watching Isaac show off his new tricks. He was actually catching balls today and holding his hands out and interacting with a little friend he met there. I felt so fortunate to be able to spend part of the day with them at the park.

What Mike is learning this week . . . well he's learning how to strip and refinish our bathroom and laundry room cabinets, cut baseboard trim, reinstall closet doors correctly, and much more. Our projects seen never-ending and while he's doing all the work, it's very stressful to both of us. Our goal is to have most everything major done by Thanksgiving for a party we're having for some of the residents and for my family who is coming to visit. He's definitely an old pro now at painting =) I will enjoy having time together at night again.

What Kristi is learning this week . . . how to drill a temporal bone (bone in the head), how to cook a turkey without having to buy an oven bag, and how to read a sleep study. Not quite as interesting to you all (but useful to me) =)

Anyway, hope you all are doing well!!
