I just bottled today (about 5 hours ago) and already have this much sediment in the bottom of the bottle.. how much can I expect this to grow? If I keep it refrigerated after it conditions, do you think I can avoid most of it getting into the glass? Thanks!

That's normal to get yeast & trub settling out like that. With a week fridge time after carb & condition of three weeks, the settlings will be compacted on the bottom of the bottle.
 
I don't worry about it. It's normal. I get some bottles with almost nothing, and I get some with a fair amount. Either way a lot of it usually stays in the bottle, and even if it gets in the glass I drink it anyway.
 
Yeah that's quite normal, my tip is to know your glass rather than know your bottle, that way your can very gently pour the beer without looking at the bottle and stop at just the right time to discard the trub, I can pour a glass to full to minus 21mm really accurately !
