Now, I also think not a day goes by without the thought of, &#8220;We&#8217;re crazy&#8230;how do we think we can work full time AND parent full time?!?!&#8221;  But&#8230;overall, it&#8217;s a deep sense of blessing.  Lately life has been filled with Natalie fully asserting her &#8220;two-ness&#8221; (i.e., mini-tantrums and exerting independence with unrivaled determination) and Tyler&#8217;s recent mastery of sitting up.  Looking back on Natalie&#8217;s first year, that sitting up stage is a definite favorite.  I love that time when they can sit up and interact contentedly with toys around them, yet (and this is the key component) they stay put!  So, when we did these 6 month pictures of Tyler, he was still a little wobbly, and I was so excited for him to really get it.  He just mastered it about two weeks ago, and then just ONE WEEK later, he&#8217;s up on all fours.  What happened to the 2 or so months of immobility?!?!  Apparently, my days are numbered and crawling is imminent.  He hasn&#8217;t figured it out quite yet, but every day he tries with such determination that any day could be the day it happens.  And it doesn&#8217;t help that his Dad is encouraging him to gain this new skill (they &#8220;practice&#8221; and &#8220;train&#8221; together!).  Don&#8217;t get me wrong&#8230;I&#8217;ll love watching him figure it out and gain a new skill and a huge new level of independence&#8230;I just don&#8217;t want my little guy growing up too fast on me!  Enjoy some of my favorites from his 6 month portraits we did the middle of May&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>-Lindsay<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/jonathanbetzphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/tyler-6mo-04-LR.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"532\" alt=\"\" title=\"tyler 6mo 04 LR\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/jonathanbetzphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/tyler-6mo-06-LR.jpg\" width=\"532\" height=\"800\" alt=\"\" title=\"tyler 6mo 06 LR\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/jonathanbetzphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/tyler-6mo-10-LR.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"532\" alt=\"\" title=\"tyler 6mo 10 LR\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/jonathanbetzphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/tyler-6mo-14-LR.jpg\" width=\"532\" height=\"800\" alt=\"\" title=\"tyler 6mo 14 LR\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/jonathanbetzphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/tyler-6mo-15-LR.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"532\" alt=\"\" title=\"tyler 6mo 15 LR\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pp-fb-like-btn-wrap\"><div class=\"fb-like\" data-href=\"https:\/\/jonathanbetzphotography.com\/blog\/2010\/06\/15\/our-family-tylers-6-month-baby-portraits\/\" data-share=\"false\" data-layout=\"standard\" data-width=\"450\" data-show-faces=\"\" data-action=\"recommend\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t think a day goes by without a moment of feeling so blessed that we work for ourselves and get to be here for our kids.
