Sooooo how long will 2/3-1/2 of an inch last?

I thought I would be ok if we made it to age five harnessed BUT now that it is almost here...not so sure.

I should have named the child Gumby. I finally get a little meat on his bones and he just stretches up some more.

It could last 6 months, really. When I was watching Tyler, he had 1/2, it lasted him 6 months.

6 months, huh?

I could feel better about it in six months. He is a SN child BUT loves a booster and does very well in one. Developementally, I don't want to hold him back too much since he showing signs he is ready. Safetywise, I worry, but then at his size boostering now might be better than later when he might not be eager. Gah, I don't know.

I agree with Judi (usually a smart choice. :D) Probably 6 months.

And i understand....the time is flying and dd keeps growing (although, finally, she's growing legs, which is buying us more time, yes!lol) and I worry we will be in the same boat soon. :(

Here is the pic. It took him another 6 months to be even with the top slot. I probably could have gone a little longer.

Good point:thumbsup:

No reason to panic, he shouldn't grow some more for at least a couple of months. It isn't like we don't have a backup anyway. I can get a good half an inch more out of the radian bolt upright.

I understand, B&J, its so bittersweet to watch them grow. Everytime he does this gain a little weight/get longer he looses a little more of the baby look.
