the original list




not sure what she's doing here.  I think she trying to sit up with her head...




cute as a button



natalie is getting her first tooth so she eating her arm to numb down the pain!


all smiles

So a couple days ago we did Natalie's 5 month portrait session and she is forever changing and growing.  We think she has hit 12 pounds now which is double her birth weight of 6.2!  

We also did pictures of her sleeping in the "wiese" basket as it has been called by some. Margaret Wiese was first to sleep in it in the year 1919.  It's a family tradition that has been carried on for generations now,  when ever there is a new baby born on Lindsay's family side they are to have the baby take a nap in the almost 100 year old basket and then pass the basket on to the next family who has a new baby.  The basket also has a log of everyone that have slept in the basket. Be sure to click on the picture to see the details of history log.  The best part is that Margaret turned 89 years young this year!  Enjoy!

p.s. Natalie napped in the basket for 2 hours, it still must be comfy...

These pictures are too cute. Natalie is a great combination of both of you - gorgeous! And Jon, I have to say I have been taking notes of all the poses you have been doing and stealing them for pictures of Charlie! They are great!
