So, I have been curious for quite some time now on how tall my daughters will be when they get older. I know there is no way to tell for sure until they get there, but it is fun to imagine. There is the old tale that they will be "double the height at age 2". Okay, we will start from here. I am lucky that my mom was on top of things and kept all my measurements in my baby book. I just pulled it out for the 1st time tonight for comparison.
Age 2
Me: 36" doubled would be 6 feet (right on the money for the theory)
Maizy: 37 1/4" doubled is 6 feet 2 1/2 inches (wow)
Zoey: 35.2" doubled is pretty much 5 foot 10 1/2" (not as tall as mom-at least there will be one that still will have to look up to me)
Casey and I have known for a while that Zoey wasn't going to be as tall as Maizy. I compared their measurements long ago and knew that Zoey was about 2" shorter every time. Maybe she will surprise us, but it is not likely. Sorry babe!
Unforunately this is the only measurement to compare with Zoey for now!

Age 3
Me: 39"
Maizy: 40.28"
Age 4
Me: 42 1/2"
Maizy: 43 3/4"
Age 5
Me: 44"
Maizy: 45.83"
According to the numbers, I believe it is safe to say that Maizy will be taller than me. I don't know whether to be happy or sad about this as I already know the trouble of finding pants and shirts that are long enough for me, let alone someone who might be taller. I guess we will cross that bridge when we get there. Hopefully she will be interested in sports-North Summit could really use it!

That was fun:) I will have to check into mine, i think Jace is going to be taller than my girls i think he got my side of the family geans:)
Maybe she will make millions opening an awesome store for the tall and beautiful people...then she can provide cute clothes for both of you!! ;-)
How fun to compare! Tall definitely runs in your family.
No doubt your children will be tall. I had to look up ours after reading this just to see. From our baby books, I would be 1 1/2 inches taller and Ron would be 6 inches shorter! He was a tiny little thing :)
Actually he would be 5 inches shorter, but still that's only 5'3"
