Younger child bigger than older child

I think my younger dd is going to be larger than my older dd. Can you believe this? My three month old is almost ready for size three diapers. I haven't been feeding her a thing other than breastmilk and she's huge. I saw a six month old that was smaller than she is yesterday. We can already tell that she has a big bone structure.

We're pretty certain, she's going to be a big, powerful girl. There are no "pixies" in my family. There are pretty much all "horses". Kate is a pixie like her grandma, but Cara is going to be a "horse". She's so dainty in ways that Kate is not too. She likes me to file her nails, comb her hair and make her up. Personalitywise, they are total opposites too.

I wouldn't be suprised in a couple of years if they weren't both wearing the same size if not before. Anyone else have this happen?

I haven't had this happen, but my mom did. She was 13 months old than her sister and her sister was taller than her when my mom was 3 and her sister was 2. Neither of them was big boned though, they were both very skinny. Nothing like the older wearing the younger's hand-me-downs. Now my mom's sister is 5'11" and my mom is 5'3".

Kate's bigger than Lyssa was. Peyton seems to be falling into the middle of them.

My sister is quite a bit taller and bigger boned than I am. Dh has a cousin who is much taller and bigger boned that her older sister as well. I guess it runs in the family.

well......if I tried to put Nick in Liz's clothes I think Jerry would be a tad upset BUT.....it won' tbe long before Nick is towering over Liz, and she is tall too. RIght now Liz is 6 (almost) and is just shy of 4 feet tall. Nick is 3 and just over 3 feet tall i think

Devon is 13 months younger than Michael and he has been bigger than him since he was 2 or so I think.

One of my sisters is already taller than me, my brother is 11 and almost my height, and my other sister is 9 and she's getting up there too... I got lucky to make it to 5 feet LOL.
