My parents have started giving me the most awful tasting stuff that I could imagine. I can barely gag it down. Sometimes just to placate my mom I swallow it and she claps for me and yells yeah. Dad makes smiley faces at me so that I will swallow, while mom shoves a small green spoon of goop in my mouth. Apparently I have started rice cereal. The only reason that I know that it is called cereal is because dad keeps asking when I will start on my corn flakes and Rice Krispies. It's all really weird.
My Bubbe keeps asking when I get to start peas, squash and carrots. I have no idea when my parents will spring this crap on me however my dad said I must try everything. If I don't like it I don't have to continue to eat it but I must try it, even green beans which he told me he hates. Zayde told me I don't have to eat peas. He doesn't like peas but Bubbe said I should try them because they are really good. My parents are making my food really thick in preparation of my surgery. I didn't get to try my cereal really liquefied because they are trying to get me to learn to eat from a spoon.
Uncle Aaron is out of the hospital and feeling much better. He had a really bad infection in his leg and we are all glad that he is on the mend. We hope that he doesn't do too much too soon. His infection was really scary. If he would have been in the hospital much longer we may have had to share a hospital room when I go in for my surgery.
I have been pretty tired lately which during the day is nice for my mom so she can get her work done. I have been pretty grouchy in the evenings though because I am so tired. Mom and Dad think I have grown a lot over the week. They keep calling me a big girl. We will see this week when I go to my new Doctor. At my 4 month appointment this week they will tell me how much I weigh. Mom is sure I only weigh just over 12 pounds because all my clothes are still huge on me. But I know that I am growing. My mom tells me that I am so cute and calls me pretty baby all the time. I really like that and it is sure to bring a smile to my face when she calls me that.
As you can tell by my picture I can hold my head up really well. I get bored doing it though. I am learning how to sit by myself. I am not very good at it yet but I do try hard. I sit well in my Bumbo chair for about five minutes and then I get angry. I have learned to play by myself for a little while and then I get lonely. I still want to be held a lot. Hello!!! A BEAUTIFUL BABY NEEDS TO BE HELD!!! If everyone would understand this we would have less problems. I went to the Dr. with mom this week so she could have her diabetes checked and all the people at the office told me how pretty I am and what I miracle I am. They were stating the obvious but I still don't mind hearing it.

I have had a full week. Last weekend was my Nana's birthday and I got to play with all my girl cousins and go to Chucki.e Chee.se with Dad. We had tons of fun. Later in the evening we celebrated Nana's birthday with Mexican for dinner. I wanted Nana to wear the pretty sombrero but no one else agreed. We missed Aunt Cari and Uncle Chris at the party but they were playing in Chicago. Maybe they will be at my big Halloween bash at the end of October and I can see them then. I think my cousin Mollie, my Aunt Catie and my Uncle Daniel will be there!! We can't wait to see what everyone wears for costumes to the party.
I will let you all know how my 4 month appointment goes. I heard my mom talking to my dad about shots. I am sure my parents wouldn't put me through that again, seeing as how I threw a fit the last time they did it. I guess if the nurse tries it this time I need to try a different tactic than crying. Hmmm...anyone have any ideas?

Sic a court order on them, Izzie. That will likely intimidate them into stopping before the shots!

Dear Izzie,
Keep working on that rice cereal, and look forward to the peas, carrots, and squash. The sooner you master those items, the sooner you can try Aunt Caroline's gefilte fish, matzah ball soup, cranberry crunch, and more.
Lots of love, and keep the pictures coming...
Aunt Caroline
