He is one studly hunk. But I wanted Autumn and the baby daddy Walter stay with their 2 kids as a family. I know I am throwing my hoominess on them. 

 

I hope they will have a beautiful 5 ft kid in the future. Is that the normal size being I'm only 5'1" myself.

@Yahooey, sorry but a 5' baby would be very small.  On average a newborn giraffe calf is about 6-1/2' and 220 pounds.

 

Between the length of gestation (about 16 months) and the size of the baby aren't you glad you aren't a giraffe.

The eyes through which you see others may be the same as how they see you.

Over 6 feet and 200 lbs - wow. Good thing they don't have a litter like Starling.
