Later on Sunday, we watched the Packer game. Fischer is fascinated by the TV--he'll even arch his back to try and watch it over the top of his head if it's behind him! We watch a little with him, but he's far too young to process all of those fast-moving images. He did get to watch the game with Daddy, though.
After the game, our former roommate and friend Jess came for a visit. She lives in Milwaukee, and doesn't make it up to Green Bay very often, so this was the first time she's gotten to meet Fischer. She was just in love with him--despite the fact that he spent a good chunk of the time farting loudly, making pooping faces, grunting and generally filling his pants! She hung out with us for a little while before she had to drive home.
This morning when I was dropping Fischer off at daycare, we were the first ones in the baby room--the other kids were on their way over from our opening classroom. I put a bib on him, and placed him by the mirror on his stomach on the Boppy pillow.
When I turned to see him as I was putting his bottles and other things away, he was just so darn cute, I had to run to the office and grab my camera. These are some of my favorite photos to date! What a happy guy :) 
Fischer continues to be "great" at daycare (his teachers' words). He loves to greet other kids in the morning when we arrive with one of his big grins and bright eyes...that is if he hasn't fallen asleep on the ride in! The good news is, though, that he's not only such a good boy at daycare, he's a good boy all the time. He's begun laughing, now, too. He does it at random like when I was taking his arm out of his shirt the other night. Fischer has been experimenting with his voice a lot--getting louder and more expressive. Grammy Pam can attest to his conversational skills--they had quite the talk the other night on the phone!Oh, I almost forgot to sum-up our last two or 3 coffee trips. Two weeks ago, I brought Fischer along to coffee in Appleton so our fellow coffee-girl Nicole could meet him. It wasn't such a good evening for us, because Fischer hasn't been to coffee in Appleton at night before. When I met up with Kristy during my maternity leave, we were able to get together during the daytime, and Fischer was still sleeping most of the time! Anyway, he was in a strange place after an unexpected carride--both ways--and couldn't wind down like he's used to at home. Nicole enjoyed meeting him anyway, but we had to cut coffee about an hour short! Poor Fischer--I'm sorry.
By contrast, last week's coffee in Green Bay was an absolute dream! Fischer slept in his carseat while I ate and drank my coffee. Then, just as I was done, he was ready to eat. So I nursed him, and when he was done, took him to the restroom to change him. Kavarna is such a family-friendly place :) He was so happy and content! On the way back from his diaper change, we stopped and chatted a little with Alex, who owns Kavarna with his wife Linda. They have 2 little girls themselves. Alex has seen Fischer plenty of times, but never so alert as he was that day :) Alex said, "He looks like a Fischer." And I said that I hope he likes the water. Alex said that he's sure to have "strong feelings" about water one way or the other. I guess we'll have to see...so far we know he LOVES baths! After Kavarna, we went to Brenda and Troy's new house. We got to hear Troy practicing with his band in the basement--Fischer seemed to like the music. He also enjoyed a walk out in their backyard in Brenda's arms as Kristy and I picked and ate some plums from their tree--yum! What a GREAT night!!!
Last night for coffee, Fischer spent time with Daddy so he could wind down at home. I'm sure "that crazy neighbor lady" stopped by!
