Tuesday

So apparently the workout worked as I am sore today. My stomach is sore and I'm not sure if the muscles are sore from sit-ups or the uber-massage.
Explored this a.m. and am really getting to know my way around this city - only problem is that my Uggs are apparently giving me some sort of tendonitis on the top of my feet. Oh well.

Serik was in great spirits today. We went back to our 'old playroom' (which is really a conference room) and the nice quiet and familiar atmosphere worked its magic. He was booking around and talking up a storm. The Lloyds joined Irina, Zhana, and me and the boy for a more quiet play time. They had bubbles and the babies were fascinated with them. It was very cute to watch. Milestone today as there was no spitting up or poopie diapers - of course that will jinx the visit tomorrow right?! Left little man in his crib with one of his new pacifiers from home (U.S.) and he seemed to think it was fabulous so hopefyully there will be no issues with the American bottles.

Went with Irina after the visit to check out another shopping center. On a so far elusive search for a shearling coat (no comments from the vegan friends). Found plenty so far but have to find the right one at the right price. They are incredibly inexpensive compared to the US so that's why I would like to get one. That and it's supposed to be getting bitterly cold here in the next week or two. All for now. Hope you are all well.
