phal is growing and blooming at the same time?

[inkeys]

I have a miniature phalaenopsis which I just purchased in March in full bloom. the blooms fell and i cut the spike, now is is july and the plant is sending out another flower spike.

what confuses me is that it is also growing a new leaf and i see new root growth... i thought that was not possible? are phalaenopsis capable of blooming which in a growth phase? thanks!
