Most males grow up until they turn 18. Personally, I was short as hell til I was about 16. I hit two growth sprouts of roughly 4-5 inches between 16-17 before I reached my final height. There's no special thing to trigger it but more sleep does help it seems. Though with both your parents being short, statistically you probably won't grow too much taller if at all.
