Monday-
Krysta slept from 7:30 PM til 8 AM last night. We went to the doctor who was surprised at how on target she is developmentally. After the doctor’s visit (which went well), we tried to buy Krysta’s formula at the Ramstore with no luck. After lunch, Andrei took us to a huge store (crose) that had just what we were looking for. Tonight we’re finishing up leftovers. Tomorrow night, we/re having dinner at ‘American Bar & Grill’ with the Sarvers - a good meal before we have to catch a 4 AM flight that takes almost 1 1/2 days to complete. This will be our last entry from Kaz. I’ll update when we get home.
Mike here....the other night we had a little concern as we heard Boom! Boom! Boom! over and over again. I looked out the window and couldn’t see anything. I did see a couple walking down the street, so everything seemed OK. We weren’t sure if there was some sort of revolt going on. Things were quiet again, then an hour later it started back up. They did not sound like fireworks - but this time I could see colored lights as the fireworks went off. They sounded more like cannons.
We got to watch ‘The Simpsons’ and ‘Spongebob Squarepants’ in Russian. They loose something in the interpretation, but it was good to see something I knew.
- Forgot to mention that since we have had Krysta, her personality has shown through. We are getting laughs and lots of smiles. She has really opened up to us and is already attached. She has progressed a lot in her mobility as well. She pulled herself to her feet today. Even the doctor said she will be walking soon. It’s good that the apartments in Almaty have microwaves in them - it helps to get her food ready faster and easier.
