they're all be wishing they are like her. Mine keeps wishing she had boobs (at 12yo). She's a stick figure who eats like a pig.

Don't you wish you were a fly on the wall when she did it?

Height at age two, doubled, is what you can expect them to reach as an adult.

But also check their growth records - if they are consistently on or above the 90th centile for height, they are likely to be tall adults.

It felt so strange when I realised that my offspring were, one by one, growing taller than me!
My eldest is 6' in heels, Amazon girl, lol!

My son did the total opposite and ended up 6'6" but it took him 'til he was 22 to reach it.

PS...they're never to tall for a thick ear. Wink


she's too tall for me to reach her ear Laugh

she picked me up the other day and threw me across the sofa, it was mean't to be play fighting Crying Big Grin

i think this is true, my daughter has been the tallest among her friends (boys as well) since junior school, now the boys are catching her up Nod i am the same height from about 15 as well

Stepladders come in handy - I can vouch for that. Nod

As for playfights, yeah I used to get that too - and they thought it was hilarious.
I used to remind them that they had to sleep at some time (could they manage with one eye open though?).

Even my daughter (who's almost 15) is a bit smaller than me and I'm only 5' 2"

I bet my lads not much more than 4 stone wringing wet...he looks like a teeny skinned rabbit Laugh With FAR too much hair.
