but I'm not sure I did it right... Do these sound about right (heights and weights in my signature are correct).

Alyssa-19 1/4"
Makaela-17 1/2"
Sydney-16 1/4"
Lillian-15"
Ella-13"

Well my 2yo nephew is 35" tall with a 13" torso, so it looks like you did it right? :p All you have to do is sit them down with their bum and back flat against the wall and measure from the floor to the shoulder. I always bend down and get eye level with their shoulder, because if you look from above, it will look shorter than it really is.

sounds about right based off your 2 yo measurements.
my DD is 3 and has a 13.25" torso at 37"
so if you measured the same for each of the other children it should be accurate.

Thanks :) I was sitting down in front of them so I was at eye level. I put my finger at the top of their shoulder and DD#1 or DD#2 measured from the floor to my finger.
