Oh my! My TALL nephew

My nephew is 7mths(5/2) and is dead even with the top slots on the Safeseat! :eek: This child basically has no legs. His feet are just past the crotch strap. He has probably 4" above his head. I hope his growth evens out somewhat. Otherwise, he will be in a Marathon sooner rather than later...:whistle:

Hmmm, sounds like my six-month-old daughter and he are built very much the same... This is the one who is less than 1/4 inch from the top slots on the Scenera (not sure how those compare) and has about 2 inches before she outgrows by height (or 3 inches over her head.)

I am not sure how long I'm going to be able to keep her in her Radian. I'm betting her weight will slow down once she starts crawling (she is having trouble with that because of, you know, the torso) so then, I'm not sure but I think she might outgrow it by height before weight. Her RADIAN.

He either has a very small head or there are some measuring issues. Once Ilana hit the top slots, she was just about at that 1" mark to get a new seat.

Well, his head is very, uhh, round, like a melon really. Or a cueball, since he's bald. I need to try him in the car and see how much difference there is because I noticed he tends to sink down in the seat once it's in the base.
