    New Grand-Bairn

    I am pleased to announce the birth of my new grandson, Alexander Everett Killman, born 9-19-11 at 8:09 AM, weighing in at 6 lb, 9 oz. A bit skinny, but for two weeks early, not bad!

    We're measuring for a new kilt tomorrow.

    Aye, Ben, he's likely to be at the Tavern on Oct. 14. I'm also working on getting my other grandsons kilted up and ready for showing. Will looks great in his rig, and the other is coming along.

    Maddie Grace, the eldest of the grand-bairns and older sister to Alexander--or Lex as he is to be called--is my annual date for the St. Patrick's Parade. I am hoping to have them all make an appearance.

    Forget the measurements, Jim! Just wrap the wee lad in some tartan!
    Congratulations to you, the missus, his parents and his other grandparents.
