I’ll be the shortest one in the family someday

I think I’ve mentioned my husband is 6 foot 4. A veritable neanderthal, or so I call him at times. I certainly didn’t inherit gianticus babyus bearing genes from my mother. Sassy, my most recent child and largest at birth was 10 lbs. 2 oz. I was a mere 6lbs. 15oz.

Anyway, this:

011

This is my SEVEN year old son, wearing my sandal. He’s just 1 1/2 inches away from fitting perfectly into MY shoes! By the time he’s 10 he’ll be towering over me.

It’s a good thing I don’t discipline with physical means ’cause I’d soon be losing that edge.

Oh… NICE picture!!! That is just too funny! :) They will all grow up healthy and happy and safe… thanks to you, so they’ll just have to turn around and take good care of you right back! ;)

Oh… and you continue to amaze me with your awesomeness… 10lb 20z huh?!? Wow! That’s so great! That’s the EXACT size of my Mom’s biggest! I think I’ll have big babies too! Baby Chomp was 9lbs 3oz! It’s kinda nice in some ways… My husband wasn’t scared to hold her because she wasn’t too little! ;)

Wow, he is really close to fitting perfectly in your shoe!! You’ll be a cute little mom :).

That just made me smile big time! :lol: Too cute! I’ve always thought it’s darling when boys are taller than their mom and think it’s very cute when those big boys put their big arms around their cute mom. How fun!

oh my goodness! They grow too fast, (especially in your family). Oh and P.S. I call my DH a neanderthal, every once in awhile. Only for mine, it’s more for his behavior or pronounced brow bones than his height.

It’s true! Such a good-looking family, though!

Wait, did I hear you right? You gave birth to a 10 lb baby? Ouch!

Wow! I often wonder how big my 4 year old will be. At 4 months he was 20 pounds. He was 9 lbs 1 oz when he was born over a week early. He is already wearing size 6 clothes :) !!
