Meet Natalie Lenora Cline
Posted by jcline on December 31st, 2008 filed in birthdays, natalieWow.
I can hardly believe we have a baby girl already. Rachael was even more impressive this time around. She came out with some awesome reddish-brown kinky hair and showed us her dark eyes.
- hospital arrival: 11:21am
- born: 2:14pm (applause!)
- 7lbs 8oz
- 18″ tall
Her name is Natalie Lenora Cline.
- Natalie – we both love the name and know some wonderful people with this name (nod to Kolo, Portman).
- Lenora – the mother of my youth who has modeled what sacrifice and commitment look like.

- Just after her bath

- Look at those cheeks

- The proof
More pics here on Facebook and below.
I just heard I get to give her a bath. More on that soon…
– A proud dad
p.s.
Now there are “girls” in the house. ;D

Dear Jon and Rachael,
Mazel Tov!
We are very excited and looking forward to meeting Natalie Lenora.
According to a book I just pulled off the shelf, “Natalie” is a French and German form of the Latin, meaning “to be alive”. The Hebrew equivalent is “Chava” or “Cha’ya.” Eleanor is from the Greek, meaning “light”.
May Natalie Lenora be a m’kor chayim v’or (a fountain of life and light) to everyone she meets! Even as King David said, “For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light” ( Psalm 36:9)
Ki-imcha m’kor chayim b’orcha nireh-or
B’Ahavat Yeshua,
David, Harumi, Hana, Elisa and Miryam

Hi Jon and Rachael,
Isaac enjoyed the parade very much. He was clapping with the marching band music. He fell asleep in the stroller on the way home for about 10 minutes. That power nap was enough to fuel him and he couldn’t take the regular noon nap. Now he is watching the Elmo video (or something). Oh, he had a bath as well. We should leave for dinner appointment around 2:00 pm; so let us know if you’d like us to bring him to the hospital before that.
Love,
The Rudolphs
