I've also heard that you can take their weight at 12 weeks and double it and that will be their final weight, but I'm not sure if that's true.
Or you could get lucky like me and have them grow for a year and half!! My boys were 4.2lbs and 6.2lbs in Dec 06 at 1 year 4 months old. Now they are 2 years old and weigh 5lbs and 8.5lbs. Go figure
