hmmmm, another post where WordPress decides that I didn’t really want to use the built in gallery function, and leaves the images orphaned without a post assigned to them. Well anyway, these photos were taken on the 31st of August, and we have now finally reached the end of the backlog. Here you can see …
So, given that these photos and video of Anna trying a (mixed fruit?) purée for one of the first times were taken on the 26th of August, I am only just over a week late in posting these. OK, add a few more days as I’ve scheduled this post to go live on September 6th …
OK, so we still haven’t actually tried the sweetcorn that they sell in a kiosk just outside the Mega shopping centre near us, but I wanted to post a recent shot of Ira and Anna smiling. Anna is sporting her hooded cardigan, as by this time (25th August) the temperatures had already started to drop …
Waiting (2many steps) outside the residents’ meeting thats discussing the 16 million Tenge owed (by others) to KCK! http://twitpic.com/f3ucq
Ha. Assuming you count a fortnight as being within ‘a week or so’, I’ve just met the dead line for ‘proper photos’ that I promised when I tweeted from the Melnitza restaurant on the 22nd of August. Melnitza is situated on SaryArka, quite near to our apartment, and as we hadn’t tried it before, were …
Yes, back on the 21st of August, it really had been a whole six months since Anna was born, and turned our lives around for ever (in a good way). Irina’s parents, Walton and Assel and Igor & Natalya all popped round for the birthday girl’s celebratory meal (I’m assuming these events will gradually encompass …
I’ll have to double check, but I think this video is the first we have of Anna eating (well chewing and sucking at least, not a lot seems to go down her throat, though the carpet and high chair do get fed well). Again shot on the 19th August, proving that a foot was no …
It had happened a little while before this photo was taken/video was shot (19th August), but Anna seemed to take great joy in discovering that she could now reach her feet, and well, have a good meal with them We Do Feed Her, I Promise! Just noticed, that was the 4000th picture we’ve taken on …
Big girl sat in her new highchair at the table, having tea with the grownups http://twitpic.com/dzkvd
Anna chilling out in the kitchen. Think she is heading towards needing a nap. http://twitpic.com/dz5rz
Anna had one day off being photographed, so this makes these shots from the 15th August. Only a fortnight behind with these photos now Aunty Sasha was still at the in-laws, as were we, and wanted to spend as much time with Anna as possible, before she returned to St. Petersburg in Russia. We took …
A day after Irina’s Mum’s birthday, (so that is the 12th of August. In case you’ve forgotten, I don’t really have some OCD thing going on with dates, it is just that I’ll eventually be altering the dates on any posts with Anna photos in them, for later importing to her blog), I think Aunty …
Another post where I can easily remember the date for Anna’s photos, as Irina’s Mum’s birthday is one day after our anniversary! So, these shots were taken on the 11th August, at a restaurant called Attila in Astana. Yes, I mis-spelled the restaurant in the post linked to.
10th August. I’m sure on the date for this Anna’s Photos post, because it was taken on the same day as Irina’s and my anniversary. We returned to the Astana Park Hotel outdoor restaurant, and I discovered their pizzas were lovely, definitely better value for money than the sashlique I’d tried previously. Anna was once …
This time (9th August) it was for Ira’s Mum’s 60th birthday (pictures to come of this event that occurred a few days later, will appear in a couple of posts time), but Aunty Sasha also seemed very happy to make the long train journey from St. Petersburg to see Anna again as well. This is …
