Family Pictures

This last weekend we were lucky enough to get pictures done by
my sister-in-law, Brooke.  It was alot of fun. Fischer got a little
cold so while Karl took him to the car to warm up I got my own
 little photo shoot. We had a great time.  Thanks Brooke!

Rice Cereal, Attempt #1

So we decided to start Fischer on some solid food.  Needless to say I'm not sure how impressed he was with it. (Course it isn't the chocolate frosting that Aunt Lisa gives him).  Anyway he did okay.  He didn't really eat it or spit it out.  He kind of just held it in his mouth.

A Hard Day

4 Months and First Haircut

Today Fischer is celebrating his 4 month birthday.  To celebrate, Daddy gave him his first official haircut and of course we forgot to take pictures.  My job was to hold the little man while Daddy trimed his hair.  His hair was getting so long.  I swear some of the strands were four inches long.  He seriously looked like a little baby monkey if you ratted it and looked at him from the back.  So know he looks like a clean cut presentable little guy.  Fischer is getting to be so much fun.  Here are some highlights from this last month.

• He LOVES to smile.
• Morning is his favorite time of day.
• He coos, caas, and likes to talk to himself.
• He can roll from his back to his stomach (although he rarely does it he can do it).
• He's discovered that his hands can do more then just be sucked on.
• He can grip and hold on to a toy.
• He can sit up with just a little support.
• He can stand and bare weight on his legs for a good stretch of time. 
• He actually slept through the night for the first time (unfortunately it was short lived).

Sunday Best and Then Some

For Easter I got Fischer a cute little outfit and tie, so of course I had to take pictures.  However, I had NO idea that it would take me the ENTIRE day to get a few decent pictures of my little guy all dressed up.  He was not wanting pictures done at all.  So here are a few of the good ones of him not screaming.

Future Missionary Perhaps?

I So Sleepy...

While Fischer was taking a nap Sadie felt she needed her picture taken.  What took an entire day to get pictures of Fischer took me only 5 minutes with Sadie.  She was so funny, I  would take a picture and then she would strike a new pose.  Sadie is definetely my camera girl.  She loves having her picture taken.  I didn't have to position her in any of these pictures she did all of these on her own.

Happy Easter

We had a great Easter this year. Fischer ended up doing really well by the easter bunny.  He got a cute new outfit (picture to come soon), some new bottles, books, and socks.  He got a cute outfit from Grandma Kate and Aunt Brooke, and some fun PJ's from Grandma Joyce.  The day started by going to breakfast at my sisters house, that afternoon we did lunch at my Mom's and that evening we did dinner at Karl's mom's.  It was fun to see everyone.

Rolling Over

So Fischer has been getting really good at rolling over from his stomach to his back.  He's accomplished rolling from his stomach to his back in both directions.  However, I was SO proud of my little man today when I had him on his back and he decided to roll onto his stomach.  Yay for Fischer!  Congrats on an important milestone.

3 Months and Growing

Today my little man is three months old. How time flies.  I LOVE watching him grow and discover new things everyday.  He is such a funny little kid and has the sweetest little spirit.  Here are some fun facts about him this month.

• He loves to smile and is beggining to giggle
• He likes to tease his mom and pretend he's sad (big pouty lip and everything) only to break into a big huge smile when you look at him.
• He's beginning to talk (when i say talk I mean coo and caa)
• He's good at making the clucking sound.
• He can about sit on his own.
• He can roll over in both directions on his back.
• He's about figured out how to roll over from back to stomach.
• He likes to make spit bubbles
• He loves to cuddle.

Me and My Teddy

Fischer loves to cuddle his teddy/blanket (Karl calls it a tanket) when he sleeps.

SPRING!!!

Spring has ALWAYS been my favorite time of year. I love the flowers and the warmer weather so you can imagine my EXTREME excitement when I came home from work today and saw this in my yard. My first spring Flowers!!!

Blessing

Today we blessed Fischer. What made today so special was that his Dad was able to bless him and that we were able to share this moment with family and friends. I am so grateful to have the Priesthood in my home and to know that family really can be together forever. Thank you to everyone who was able to come and everyone who wanted to be there but couldn't. We are so blessed to have such great people around us who care and want to be part of our son's life. I would also like to thank "Aunt Brooke" for taking pictures and being patient with a not always so happy little boy.
