We've been blessed to have relatively children in this time of transition. We've all been working on getting used to the new house, the new job, the new...everything! In July we went with Nana to visit Oma. It was a good trip and the kids did well interacting with Oma.

Later in the month my aunt and uncle from Texas came to visit for a day. We hadn't seen them in a long time, so being closer has already made us a lot more available to most of the family!
In August I started work at Centerpoint hospital. I'm even on the webpage (though no photo yet...)! They didn't have everything ready for me (no e-mail, no pager, no white coat...) but I was able to see patients. I've already had my first week of call. I only had to go into the hospital once at night, but having to go in to round on the weekends was rough. Oh well, only 1 in 4 call isn't too bad.
We also celebrated Katie's birthday! Since her parents were in Ohio, my parents came over to help celebrate.

She got lots of great stuff and we had fun playing games.

Peter is getting more and more interactive. His favorite thing is to tell "knock knock jokes." For a while, his only version was "knock knock (who's there?) Ball (ball who?) who!" Then he would insert other things instead of ball, but the punchline was always "who!" He finally started mumbling other things for the punchline. The first time he didn't do "who" was momentous...now it's just annoying again
The Buschelmans came to visit for a whole day. They were on their way to Lawrence and Colorado but stopped in Lee's Summit for a day and a half. It was great having the kids play together. Then today they finally started working on our roof! They are doing the back half today; hopefully tomorrow they get done!
