I get lots of comments with Avalynne too, but opposite of you. Ava has always been really tall. Skinny as a bean pole, but super tall. Her daddy is 6'2", I'm 5'9", so she doesn't have much choice, lol. She just turned 3 in January, and has been wearing size 4T since last fall (when she was just under 3 years), and the last couple trips to the store, I've bough her size 5T (and even a size 6/7!!) just to get things long enough for her.

People assume she's 5, so when, as you put it, she "acts her age", I get dirty looks. Like they can't believe a 5 year old would pull that in a store. It's so frustrating because I know how little she still is, even if she looks older/bigger. People comment on it ALL the time when I mention she's only 3. Now I just say what I mentioned earlier (about her dad's height, and she will be a tall girl when she's grown up too).
