Such lovely images, happy Thanksgiving! How is Sofia? I always loved reading your monthly updates bc it would remind me to do the same for my daughter's baby book! (And now she's 20 months ... so do we stop? But there's still exciting things going on!)
You are totally right, she is even more fun and interesting now. That's why I was blogging about her milestones in my Russian-version of the blog. The updates are mostly about her fist words and because they are all Russian I thought these posts would not be interesting to my English speaking readers. They are all here, please have a look if you'd like: http://users.livejournal.com/_e_lena/tag/sofia But now that you told me I will post a new update here soon, thanks for letting me know! xo
Yesterday we went to the Bronte Creek park near Toronto. We rode our bicycles, visited a little farm and had a picnic under a blossoming apple tree. I was a lovely day!
I've been such bad blogger lately but these pictures of Russia by Yoko Takahashi made me so nostalgic that I just had to share them with you. These are like looking into my childhood memories, travelling by trains to grandma's house in summer, feeling carefree. Just pictures of ordinary things but they take me into my happy place.

I know, blogging is so 2010, isn't it? But to be honest I feel like I am missing this experience on Instagram. Sure, IG makes it difficult to leave, writing posts on the phone is easy but there is something missing for me: a sense of direction, putting effort into my posts and organizing my thoughts, ideas and interests. I've been trying to pack to blogging for the past few years and would get stuck on choosing the blog platform etc. That's the reason I'm making it simple this time, I'm going back to my old blog, the one I had before Instagram years ago. There is not even an app for Blogger on my phone and I need to use a computer to write a post. I know so not very Insta! But maybe it's better that way if it makes me slow down and be more intentional. Even if nobody is reading this any more I will have space for me, my own diary and hopefully a useful tool for self development. I'm excited to start over again!
