The new Phantom of the Opera

The Phantom of the Opera is one of my favorite movies. Today we were listening to the soundtrack and A.J. got caught up in the music and started to sing.

He is also learning some new dance moves, video of that coming soon

Accessorize correctly

Lately A.J. has been into fashion:)

O.K. not exactly and his dad hopes that he never will, but he loves my jewelry and to wrap around his neck scarfs or anything. And don't forget the sunglasses at least two pairs at a time.

with cape:

yellow is in (and food around the mouth:):

stripes are cool:

Hat for the Summer:

And all time classic - newspaper hat and a pacifier (pants are not necessary;):

Catching up

I have been slacking a lot lately. I want to blame my iron deficiency for making me so tired, but mostly it's the lack of organization skills and the limbo we are in right know not knowing if we are moving or not.

Hmm, where to start?

1. I miss already my family and friends from Bulgaria. This is probably one of the things that I miss is to have them live close by, so we can see each other often.
I'll post some more pictures from Bulgaria soon, I promise:)

2. Here it is so hot and humid for the last week or so. We had a few big storms and a few fires in the area right before that.

3. We went to the Museum of Science and it was fun.

4. Fourth of July we stayed at home. It felt good just to be lazy and play Wii with our friend Matt. I'm getting better at bowling and pretty soon I'll have more points than Hans (I wish).

5. A.J. is eating only normal food and drinks real milk. He is addicted to oatmeal and blueberries. So happy about it! He loves our community pool.

6. A.J. is getting to a stage that he wants to eat by himself. These leave me with a lot of messes to clean after every feeding and piles of laundry.

7. I spent a lot of time looking for a new home on the East Coast. I try to be positive and do not compare our house with the houses out there.

I need a vacation:)

Bulgarian Friends

Last night I wrote a very long post and I published it but today I change my mind and I just delete it.
Anyway, while we were in Bulgaria A.J. made so much new friends. It was great to see my friends and A.J. to had a chance to become friend with them and their kids.
Irena
Irena and Petya are actually my sister's friends from school, but over the years they became very good friends if mine too. Irena still lives in Pleven and Petya lives in Belfast, IR. She has a little boy-Shei and he is so cute.


Shei, Petya and A.J.
Tsveti is married to Hans' good friend Tyson and this is the first time I saw her since she got married.

I know Natalia probably for almost 10 years. She came back from the Czech Republic and it was great to be able to see her and her little boy Joe. She also has two older kids Dani and Koki...what can I say, her kids really love me:)

Koki, Joe, Natalia and A.J.

Kisses:)
Lucy used to be married to my cousin. Things didn't work out between the two of them but we still keep in touch. She is an amazing person and A.J was in love with her and his cousins- Tedi and Stasy.

Natalia was my sister's roommate from college and I really love her. She is one of the coolest people I know. She was expecting her second boy (he was born on June 25). Her older son Alex and A.J. played so well together.

Nati, Alex and A.J.


I had a great time with all of my friends and I already miss them a lot.
