29th June, another walk around Astana park, and the main promenade is now filling up with yurts. These look a little different, and actually have some families living in them. Some of the market stall traders, bird of prey owners and traditional cuisine vendors seemed to be based in this area.
Well, eight days I think, but anyway, as this was the 26th June again, you can see the camera batteries took a bit of a battering. We took Anna out for her (almost) daily walk, and decided to check out how the preparations for Astana Day (and the International Religious Tolerance Forum) were coming along. …
The same day (26th June) Anna experimented with non-conformist sleeping, Dana, Asen and their son Alan popped over, as they were visiting Kazakhstan before returning to Israel. By the time I remembered to grab the camera, Alan was already having a nap, so you’ll “just” have to make do with Dana and Anna in this …
OK, getting to the end of June’s photos with Anna in now. So, that leaves nine weeks of photos to try and catch up with in two weeks, if I use the entirely arbitrary date of the end of August as a deadline. The reason for the title of this blog? Anna sometimes decides that …
Anna On Chris’ Shoulder Just a very quick post here; Anna is on my shoulder, in the front garden of Irina’s parent’s house. Hmmm, I need to double check my apostrophe use there, I’m never sure if that is the correct way to indicate ‘possession’ twice in a row. Anyway, this picture was taken on …
Shot of trees, with traditional painted white socks on them, again in Astana Park, across the road from our flat. http://twitpic.com/83hpm
Walk in the park again, Anna only managed 20 mins sleep again. Getting to know some of the smaller paths. http://twitpic.com/83hay
A nine day gap from the last photo, here we have Anna showing off her improved neck muscles, and pretty yellow dress, at the in-laws house, on the 20th June. Really sorry about the week long break in the series of Anna’s pictures, real life got in the way again. I’ll try and schedule another …
Outside the ‘mega’ shopping complex with anna. lots of anna pics to come during next week or so. http://twitpic.com/7pgpq
Here we have a quick video of Anna in her bouncy chair, recorded 12th June. Right, OK, the rest of the videos I’ve uploaded already to YouTube are more recent than Anna’s pictures on this blog, so I’ll go back to catching up with the photos first.
OK, not quite laying on the ground, but using the traditional Kazakh style table and rugs on the floor, rather than the more conventional western style table and chairs, we were at Ali Ba Ba once more with John and Innessa (OK, we were there with their daughter as well, but I forgot to ask …
Anna’s Babushka and Dedushka hadn’t seen Anna in a while, so they popped over to see us on the 9th June. (Why am I putting the dates these pictures were taken on each of the posts in the Anna’s Photos category? Basically the published date will be altered in the future, to reflect the date …
The day (7th June) after Igor and Natalya visited, we have a quick couple of shots of Anna on her playmat. In the end we bought two of them, one for at the in-laws, where we stay each weekend, and one for here, back at home. Although the toys, tunes and animal noises are great, …
Anna with some more tummy time and playing on her playmat, recorded on 7th June
