Our Journey to Liam: Our last night in Uralsk

It was pretty nice today so, we went out for a walk again. That statement is funny considering it is still not above freezing. We went to the bakery for some water. They actually know Keith now as he has been there numerous times. Sad, since we are leaving. Liam actually fell asleep mid walk. He was so tired. It was nice to get out of the apartment, even for just a little bit.

We have started the packing process. How we love to pack. It seems like we just did this. Hard to believe it was five weeks ago. Still don't like it. We have stuff everywhere. We don't have a dresser, so the clothes are stuffed in the closet and piled up on the suitcases. We have time to finish tomorrow, since the flight to Almaty is later in the day.

Liam was a little off today. Hopefully, he is not coming down with something. He was crying on and off today. He was either laughing or crying, no happy medium. He was also pulling on his left ear. Not sure if he just discovered his ears or if it actually hurts. Hopefully, he will feel better tomorrow. I can't wait to get him home.

As much as we both want to get home, and believe me we do, it is a little sad to be leaving. This has been our home for the last 5 weeks and where we met our son. I will miss team Olga, as they have just been great. We could not have asked for a nicer, more helpful group of people. Our experience here has been wonderful, a little long, but wonderful. We will always be grateful to the people of Uralsk for giving us our beautiful son. We have so many stories, pictures and video to share with Liam when he gets older.
