Other things have been growing too.
Well, we've joked about having a betting pool for when this would happen, but it's too late now. (I always guessed he'd be 13. But you know, if I was still 5 8 3/8" like I SWEAR I used to be, I'd have been right, most likely. Barely.) Anybody want to put in for which week of his 13th year he'll pass up his Daddy at 5' 10 1/2"?
(Today's photos helpfully taken by Claire. Baby photo taken by my brother Toney.)
April 6, 2009. He is fifteen days shy of his thirteenth birthday, and a quarter-inch taller than his mom at 5' 8 1/8". A historic day! :)
April 6th, 2009. Left-hand side is on my head; right-hand side is on LT's.
LT and his mama, April 1996. I LOVE THIS PICTURE.

Oh my goodness. Where *does* the time go, Rachel? I've threatened to stop feeding my kids if they keep going against my wishes and growing. The *will* insist on doing it though.

Whoa...
(My baby brother was taller than me by the time he was 8 and I was 16. So I think you made out pretty well.)

I can't really believe it's been that long since the KS chats when he was still little!
That *is* a great picture. :o)
