Ahem...Mike...you married a short woman, what did you expect your kids to look like? From now on, I am calling Riley "midget." Is that politically correct??? She's the most adorable dwarf I've ever seen though, rivals Dopey and Bashful, for sure!!!
Dwarfism is often diagnosed in childhood due to the visible nature of the condition. A physical examination can usually diagnose a type of dwarfism, but genetic testing and diagnostic imaging may be used to determine the exact condition. In a person's youth, growth charts that track height can be used to diagnose subtle forms of dwarfism that have no striking physical characteristics.

She's adorable...I think she and Sam are pretty much twinners! (Except instead of "Riley", Sam says, "Memin!")
Okay I just laughed. I mean really wouldn't the doctors know if she had that?
