That’s the biggest 2 year old I’ve ever seen!

I took the kids to Target today (yes in the snow storm!) today.  At the end of the trip I let them go over to the toy section.  Cooper was standing next to a little boy who was about an inch shorter than him.  Cooper starts jabbering a bit to him and I can see the little boy looking confused (this happens often since Cooper looks older than he is).  Here was the conversation:

Little Boy:  [turns to me] How old is he?

Me:  He’s 2.5 years old.

Little Boy:  He’s only 2?!?!  I’m 6!

Me:  Wow, you’re 6!

Little Boy’s Older Brother:  That’s the biggest 2 year old I’ve ever seen!

Little Boy:  How did he get so big?

Me:  He has really tall parents.

Little Boy’s Older Brother:  [says to Little Boy]  When are you going to hit  your growth spurt?

I cannot believe Cooper was bigger than a 6 year old.

I had to switch out Kalena's 3T clothes for 4T the other day and she's 2 1/2. And she doesn't even have the excuse of tall parents-- we're both short!
