Where to begin...well to start lets talk about Fischer walking. The normal conversation begins something like this:
"Oh he is walking?" (Due to the fact Fischer normally is dressed like a boy.) This question is asked, despite the fact that they are actually viewing walking. - Random stranger
"Yes she is"
"How old is she?" - RS
"11 months"
"Wow, thats amazing". - RS
"Yes"
The weird part comes after this with the explanations of why their baby is not walking. It can be awkward given the amount of time that takes place past the 1 year mark. The longer = the weirder.
My next response to this weird post walking debacle will be the following - "Yeah she is walking, but we'ver really got our hopes up for flying."
Another funny thing is the shift of your identity from you to Fischer's daddy. I don't usually know where to look when these baby meetings take place. Normally all questions are addressed to you while they are staring at Fischer. It can be confusing to know what you are supposed to do. Do you use a fake Fischer voice and address them directly? Fake Fischer voice and go toddler directly? Or use a normal voice and respond back to the adult while starring slightly above the toddler's head and below the adults knees. I use all of these techniques.
