After every appointment we walk around U Village and find somewhere to eat. I love it.

new doctor
Today was Mason's first checkup with the new endocrinologist. I'm happy to report that she's great. And Mason is doing great as well. One thing that I will not miss, is hearing the words "mental retardation" at these appointments. The critical time frame for the medicine for kiddos with hypothyroidism is from day one to about 2 1/2 to 3 years old. After that, the brain has been formed and mental retardation is no longer a concern. Obviously Mason is doing great, but seriously, once we pass that milestone I will be a much happier person!
Mason is such an easy going guy. I don't even pack toys for him - he'd rather just sit and talk and play and people watch with me while we wait for the doctor.

So happy the check-up went well. Thanks for calling me. I NEED these photos!!!
GREAT!!! I can't wait for that milestone for you too! Life is good!
Who is your new endo? I just switched Zane's and we see her for the first time in October!
Lisa, it's Dr. Ness. She's very nice and casual. She also has 2 kids (age 5 and 1) which I think is helpful when you work with kids (and their moms!).
Yay! See my hear smile!
Grandma Deb.
