Wild Wild West

When it comes to a good cause such as showing the progress of your child, of course I take back the words I wrote on the last post. Tatiana is the reason I started this blog. This is her first diary. Maybe one day I will print this out. Many people have suggested to do so.

Okay back to our subject. Wild wild west is the theme for these pictures. What can you expect, after all we are from the West.

Since I am very late at uploading pictures taken recently I will end the Lake Ohrid journey today. * Sad Face *


She looks at me with adoration.

11 Months Old [part I ]

11 Months Old [part II ]

My baby is getting closer and closer to number 1! Can someone tell me why do babies grow? I want her to stay just like she is!

Look at my muscles!





And I can read too!

TT & Gert

Gerti was a boy from Struga. He was 14 months old and was adorable.




In the picture below he was showing the pool to TT but there was no interest from her side.




And here comes the kiss. She hugs and kisses everyone. Very friendly but often misunderstood. Kids think she wants to harm them.




Now I realize how much in trouble Barry and I are going to be.




Hey handsome, how's the water?





Well let me come closer.





Hmmm you know what, nevermind!




Good girl TT, mama's very proud of you!

Sleep time

I love when TT sleeps. She looks so adorable. I couldn't resist the idea of taking pictures of her sleeping even when I already took 700 pictures.


Just before going down for a nap.

Struga

Our vacation is going great. The lake is a little cold for us to swim. You know we are used to the sea which is warmer.









I got my eye on you little girl at the shore.










Playing, my second favorite activity after people watching.

Peek-a-Boo

Since I was a little baby I loved playing Peek-a-Boo.







These are some pictures we took at our hotel in Struga.






Knock, knock!! Anyone home?





Ducky and I moments.

Nona and I

Chilling by the pool.




Nona's trying to teach me how to walk. I took 2 steps yesterday all by myself.

Happy Independence Day America

Hooray it's 4th of July and I'm proud to be half American!!!

Look at my upper teeth in this picture.




You know why I'm in deep thoughts? Just think about it... 4 years ago Daddy popped the question to Mami. They got engaged in Provo, Utah at Grandma's house. And of course they added a little romance to it by watching the fireworks up on a hill. Every time we go to Provo, we always go by our favorite place [The Y] where daddy proposed for the second time that day. Unforgettable 4th of July!

Lake Ohrid

Last week we went to Lake Ohrid in Struga, Macedonia. We chose the lake instead of the sea because TT is still a baby and she needs fresh air. I was really happy with our choice. The weather was perfect, not even one time did we turned on the AC! The hotel had great accommodations for TT [a playground, a pool, even a little forest.] Our room was huge and in front of us we had a big water fountain which makes it perfect for a white noise at night.


The best part of this city is that the Black Drin [the river] starts right here where the picture of Tatiana is taken. The White Drin flows through Northen Albania. Everyday we woke up to this marvelous view.




A classic picture of TT eating her shoes.





Love this one. Tatiana was taking a morning nap while her tata [Grandpa Shpetim] and nona [Grandma Tatiana] were enjoying the beautiful view of the lake and the river.






To jump or not to jump this is the big question. If Barry was next to me I know there wouldn't be any big questions, but just a tiny push.






Sleep , sleep , sleep. Can't get enough of it!
