Tallest girl in the family at 5'9" - two other sisters are 5'4, one is 5'2. Mom was 5'2".
Dad did NOT like it when I got taller than he was, which was 5'8". Brothers are both 6'.
I was always the tallest at school, right from the beginning. Never bothered me, nor anyone else.
Always liked being tall, so no problem there. Good thing I didn't like wearing heels, though!
I'm 5'4" and I am definitely the short one in my family. DMother is around the 5'8" - 5'9" mark, DH is about 5'9 and then my DBrother is almost 6ft and a bean pole who turns sideways and disappears. Surprisingly I was pretty tall in my class, even compared to the guys I grew up with, they seemed to hit the growth spurts after graduation because now most I've seen in recent years have a few inches on me.
I'm 5'1. DH is 6'4. Definitely a big difference. lol. People comment on it often but we're used to it.
My mom and sister are over 5'7. So I'm the only short one in my family.
I hate being around DH's family because they are all very tall. Even their wives are tall. No one is shorter than about 6 feet! Crazy!
So you definitely feel like Calvin!Quote:

5'5"....probably more like 5'0" now...sigh...back in the day I was as tall or taller than friends; it seems that everyone is getting taller...DD is 5'7", lives in stilettos, her DH is 6'3", so our grandson is sprouting up like a weed...one of the tallest in his gr 1 class even now.
Unlike Nat, I loved stilettos, lol and would wear them today if I could! :tongue:
Quite unlike Lady Gag, however. Is it me or does she look like she belongs on the set of "HungerGames"?

i blend in with the crowd at an average height.
That's a scary photo Lynn LOL
I'm 5'3 and my hubby is 5'3. We pair perfectly. :) As for the family, mom is the same height as I am, Dad was 5'9 and my brothers were blessed with height at 5'11 and 6'3. Jerks. lol I always wanted just a few more inches!
My guy friends were always taller and girlfriends short, except one. My one girlfriend is 5'9. She's the odd duck, but I love her anyways. :love:
I'm 5'2" so I'm not the shortest of our bunch, but near to it. My grandmother was 4'11".
I'm 5'9 and a half. I'm the shrimp in the family. My mom is 5'10, my dad is 6'3 and my brother is 6'8. All my cousins, aunts, and uncles are over 6 feet. I wish I was a little taller so I could blend in a little better with my family.
Mom and I are both 5'10, Dad is 6'1 other sibling are over 6' and are members of their local basketball teams.
I'm 5'10" and DH is a good foot shorter than me. DS is 6' 5ish I love wearing my heels and love my height. I would actually like to be taller like DS.
I`m 5'1",hubby is 5'4" Mom was 4'11" , dad 5'4" My one sister is same as me, other sister is around 5'4" One brother is 5'4" two others are 5'11" As you can see we are a family of shrimps.
I`m 5'5 (Okay 5'4 and a half..) Mum is short, dad is tall-ish, 5'11.. A few of my girlfriends are shorter than me and it makes me feel awkward lol, I`m just average. Oh well, like Wolfie said, good thing for heels.
I am about average in my family, I am 5'10". All men on Dad's side are over 6', Mom's side is shorter Mom is 5'3 1/2". My sister is 5'7" and so unhappy about it she calls herself a shrimp. I really wanted to hit 6' but I came up short oh well and I do not do heels, I live in running shoes.
Was tall in my generation. Am 5'8" when most girls were not much more than 5'6" Thinks have changed though. Lots of girls pushing 6'..... was unheard of really in the 80's when I was a teen
My best friend is 5' tall so I feel like a giraffe next to her! Lol
