Parker's Growth

I put together this chart the other day because I was interested in looking at a graph of how Parker's weight and height have changed over time. I'm also a huge nerd. I think it's so crazy how fast he gained weight in the first few months of his life. What a steep line. You can also tell he has really started to plateau starting around month 15. Then he'll have a burst of growth, and plateau again. I'm curious if this will be his new trend? I'll have to keep this graph going for another few years and find out!

Something else that has interested me lately is trying to predict how tall Parker will be as an adult. Both Tanner and I are fairly tall, and Parker is obviously a big kid, so I think it's safe to say he will be tall. But I was curious to know a better guesstimate, so I took to the internet. There are actually a number of different height predictors online, and I ended up using about half a dozen of them. Time and again they all said the same thing: Parker will be approximately 6'2", and one even said he would be 6'4"! That's just insane to me. He'd easily be the tallest person on both sides of our families.

After all of this guessing, one thing is certain- I love my big boy!
