Cardi growth

Hi all! My mason is 1 year old an still is a little gangly looking. He's between 27-30 pounds and his chest seems to be growing. I know I've heard they fill out until up to 2 years...anybody know when to expect him to get that stocky look? Thanks! Oh, and will his head widen anymore? It's not narrow, but his ears are still HUUUGE!!!

Ace must be related to Mason, because he is as well! He's also getting less leggy, but only because his legs are beefin' up! I make sure Mason grows slowly too--I've always heard it's bad to have them grow really fast (on their joints and stuff) so I've fed him an adult food from a really really young age.

Luke has put on 10+ lbs since he turned a year old. I thought he would end up small... :/ lol

So much for that!

Wow! Maybe Mason will get bigger than I thought! I've seen how a lot of cardis are much bigger than him at 1 year, but if he puts on 10 pounds he'll be the right size hahaha

Yeah he might surprise you lol. Luke was stuck at 27 lbs for months and I thought he might not even make the standard weight, and then all of a sudden he started filling out like crazy. We just cut his food back a bit recently because he was looking a little tubby, so I'm hoping he's mostly done now! He'll be 2 in June and I bet he's close to 40 lbs these days.

WOW yeah, Mason's stuck around 27 as well! I feel like he's been there forever! Fingers crossed he sprouts out like Luke

My cardigans turned 2 in January & they are both just a little over 27 pounds. The boy is tall & skinny and the girl is short & a little thick. They get about 2 cups of food per day.
