Okay, I realize my 6 year old is the smallest kid in the school K-6, and everyone always is shocked when I tell them how old she is.....


She turned 6 in Jan, is 40 3/4in tall and is 35.5 lbs....(She wes measured the other day). Wears size 4t clothing!!


She was not a Preemie, and was a normal birth weight (7lbs 14oz) , has no medical issues (They tested her for 37840283 things)


Anyone else have tiny kiddos?

My dd has always been tall for her age. She is 49 inches and about 48-49lbs. She was born average at 7lbs 6oz, but she is tall just like her dad.
She is wearing a size 7 in clothes and is almost a size 2 in shoes.

My 5 year old son is the complete opposite, he is BIG for his age he is 50IBS and is over 3 feet tall, and wears a size 7 in clothes.I can not keep up with his constent growth, I have to buy him new pants almost every 4 months because he is grwoing so fast. People ask me all the time if he is 6 or 7, but he just turned 5 in April. Its kinda frusterating sometimes cause other parents confuse him with older kids, so that when he does something or acts a certain way for his age they look at him like he should be acting older. I'm a very short person at 5'1 and I know he gonna out grow me before he is even 10, lol.

Boy she is tiny LOL.  DD turned 6 in march. She is about 47 inches tall and I would guess about 45 lbs for weight.  She is one of the tallest of her classmates.  Her best friend is a whole head shorter.

My DD is 6 1/2 and will be 7 in November.  She is 40 inches and around 42lbs.  She is super skinny too and is in a 5/6 shirt and a 6 jeans.  She is also one of the shortest girls in her class.  Everyone else towers over her....lol.
