The main problem with measuring 'Growing Earth' is, that the process is 
incredibly slow.

I assume about half a millimetre additional radius per year.

GPS exists about 30 years, hence could eventually measure 15 mm.

So we had to use other means and search for evidence, that could cover 
several million years.

We could, for instance, look at the age of the sea-floor.

E.g.

http://sos.noaa.gov/Datasets/dataset.php?id=119


So we could go backwards in time for - say- two hundred million years 
and estimate the size of the former Earth by subtraction the sea-floor 
which is younger than a certain age.

This is actually, what Neal Adams has done in his animations:

Another way was used by the German geologist Ott Christoph Hilgenberg. 
He glued maps on balls of different size:
