They grow up so fast...

(Sling vs nine months later)

(Image description: two photos of the same pumpkin patch dwarf tarantula, nine months apart. In the first image, the spider is on a piece of moss and is seen next to a single index fingertip and is roughly the same size as it. Her abdomen is very large compared to her head in the proportions of a baby tarantula. In the second image, the spider is climbing the plastic wall of her enclosure and the same hand is behind her for scale. She is now over half the length of the palm, and has grown into her adult proportions. End of image description.)
