Hey
Kira arrived yesterday, trip went fine, I wasnt driving she slept on me.
At home I started from first minute throwing food into crate while open and kennel next to it.
She started to cry if door was closed, first she eat then she cry 
She has been very quiet and always under my nose.
She did their business every 3 hours
Then we gone to sleep and it was nightmare, I putted her into crate still using food and sweet words and I closed the gate, she was next to me , she started to cry, scratch etc for2 hours then I took her down and again 2 hours same and so on, none slept.
During afternoon she sleep inside crate if open, but If I close its tragedy.
Any suggestion or just keep it going?
Thanks

It will get better.
Don't establish a pattern where if she protests loudly you open the crate door.
Giver her time to learn to calm herself in the crate. Even if there are just moments of quiet in the crate, reward those moments.

I don't know what you mean by "sweet words" but I would not be trying to make going into the crate at night a big deal or prolonged process. IME trying to get them to go in by their own choice doesn't work until they've stopped crying for the most part. I just throw a few treats in there and put puppy in. Very matter of fact.
No sleep the first few nights is pretty normal. I'm at a dog trainers school that requires students to get very young puppies. A few people have tried to let their puppy sleep with them the first night or two to lessen the crate crying but they've all ended up just letting puppy cry it out.
Congrats on the pup! Looking forward to watching her grow up.

Try to have her a little tired before going into the crate.
Try putting her in there, then go away so you can't hear it. Go shopping.
For short times in the crate, a special big bone can be given.
Try not to open the crate when she is having a fit. Try to open it when she is quiet. Don't "make over her" (OH, here she is,she was so sad, now I'm here, I've got you....etc) when you open the crate door. Just matter of fact, sometimes you go in here, then later, I come and let you out. No big deal, but this is life.
She'll be better in a few days. GOOD LUCK! BUY EARPLUGS!

Watch her water consumption. I had to restrict my pup to a little cat bowl. If he was allowed access to my adult dog's large water bowl he would drink way too much water. It would lead to him peeing 2 or 3 times in the space of an hour.
Almost every pup is going to go inside their kennel or the house at least a few times. It happens. Don't beat yourself up for it just make sure you get the spots cleaned up really well.

No water or food after 6-7 pm.
Tether the pup to you so it will be easier to keep you eye on him.

ok please Im just worried, I read around that water for puppy is vital, and I was worried that skipping it from 7 pm to 8 am its too much.
During day Can I just limit water each 3 hours together with food I just give a little meal with food and water ?
I saw that she can keep it for 4-5 hours but I like to keep each 3 hours potty break

Over night without water shouldn't be a problem.
Are you putting the blanket over the crate?
That can work great to help the pup stay quiet.
If she's pulling the blanket through the crate then find a board or piece of plywood that is big enough to hold the blanket away from the crate.
Just put the plywood on top the crate then the blanket on top the plywood.
You want it to be 5-6 inches, roughly 15 cm bigger then the crate on all sides.
