Happy first birthday Sofia!

first birthday This Sunday Sofia had her first birthday. We did a little party for her, just a small group of family and friends. It turned out ok, but I was upset that I didn't manage to get any "birthday portraits" of her, you know in the high chair with the cake and all. I guess it's always like that, some things turn out not like you imagine. But Sofia had a good time. She loved playing with the boys and loved chasing bubbles. I will post more pics soon. Meanwhile she made her first steps yesterday. But still afraid to let go and walk by herself. I got a milestone email from the babycentre that my baby is a toddler now, and it made me a little teary. They grow up so fast!

    Happy Birthday Sofia!

    My daughter just turned 2 and this birthday I didn't get any nice portraits of her either. For both her birthdays we had a party with family, but the first year my brother-in-law was there to take some lovely photos of all of us. Handing over the camera and having them take photos is so essential in these situations.

    And lol, on the baby center mail...I too was quite shocked about it...what, my little baby isn't a baby anymore. No, I'm not ready yet!

Last week Sofia turned one and a half years old. She is 84 cm tall and weighs 11 kg. She's got almost 16 teeth now. She is so funny that one. She calls her grandma "dear". When she saw a Christmas lights deer on the street (made of wires) the other day she said "the deer is made of spaghetti". One time she was making a pretend-soup from felt veggies and insisted on putting real crackers in it too. Her favourite game though is to bounce on yoga ball and to sing. She loves songs. Her favourite ones are these from the old Russian cartoons I show her: Town Musicians of Bremen and Winnie the Pooh . (They are with English subtitles, please have a look if you are curious, I personally think they are awesome!). And of course she loves Elmo, Dora and her fave English language song is "Wheels on the bus". Ane she loooooves books, I really hope she doesn't outgrow this. Here is a little children's poem she's helping me read, it's in Russi...

learning to crochet

I think last time I did any crocheting when I was a kid, I decided to give it another try and made this Totoro toy. It turned out to be quite easy! You can make one too using this pattern . Now I wish I could make my own patterns but I guess it's too soon for that.

Hi guys, I finally did it! My Etsy shop is now open! A while ago some of you asked if I am planning to sell my prints online. So I've set up an online store, but for some reason it took me forever to figure out all the printing, packaging and shipping details. For the last couple of month I really concentrated on getting it done and managed to figure it all out! Right now I have 12 prints listed , floral for now. I am planning to add many more, including custom prints and postcards. I want to thank you once again for all your encouragement, support and sweet comments about my photos, it means a lot to me!
