We absolutely lose height during the day. Standing in line for so long (if the line was out on Main Street you had a LONG wait), perhaps being in the heat of the day, maybe not hydrating enough, etc, and that's a recipe for being too short for something.
You got your rest, your spine lengthened out as spines do during sleep, you went right in the morning (and you were wearing different shoes), and of course you were able to get on.
I have. Several times.I'm wondering how many people have actually SEEN (not just heard of) CM's asking children to remove their shoes when being measured?

My DD has a pair of nikes with the shocks on the heels which add about an inch or so to the shoe not including the sole itself - total they add about 1.5" of height.

Good to know! We'll leave those at home to avoid the hassle.

On CS, she was too short so I stayed with her and did the swings and TS, but I never did get my chance to ride CS. The family rode it again on a different day, so again I stayed with DD. The family didn't mean to leave me out, they just didn't think of MOM in all their excitement. From that point, I just kind of encouraged skipping any rides that DD was too short. It worked well, no one even complained or suggested different. But mom is bummed to have missed out on CS eh well.

If your kids are just under he height limits of some of the popular rides, the CMs will give you a front of the line pass (good for the child and 5 others) when they come back and are tall enough. I have front of the line passes for Star Tours, the Matterhorn, Indiana Jones, and Soarin'.
I have never heard of such thing for Disneyland.
