Kenneth F. Dolezal of Dolezal, Lindeman & Davison, Cedar Rapids, for appellee.

Heard by CADY, C.J., and SACKETT and STREIT, JJ.


STREIT, Judge.

Both mother and father appeal the provisions of a custody order. The trial court ordered joint physical care and each parent contends they should have been designated the primary physical care giver of the children.
