Aliens, the Fonz, and the endocrinologist


For those that have spent time with Izzy, you know of her love for the Fonzie thumbs. No it was not taught to her by Buck, she came to us channeling the Fonz. Well today she invented the cure, hand braces from toilet paper tubes. At first I thought her hands were stuck so I took them off, which produced ear piercing screams. After an hour she gave up the braces and we have not seen Fonzie thumbs since.

Now we all know that aliens can read your mind, right? Well Izzy is a firm believer in always having protection. So she wears metal on her head to prevent the mind reading. Our question was, how did she know to do this. Did she see Signs in China, she did live on a farm, did they have crop circles?



















Well now we know, she is an alien mind reader herself! Actually we think she does mind control as well. Notice the animal crackers on her high chair tray...I don't remember putting them there.















Monday we saw the peds endocrinologist. He ordered a bunch more test for her thyroid and to check her growth hormones. He felt she was very short and had no growth curve over the past year. He said she was short even on the Chinese charts which we knew. So we will see where it goes from there. He felt she was really healthy except for the delayed development, anemia, seizures, small left hemisphere of the brain, low thyroid, and almost no height gains in the past 8 months. Otherwise she is great.
