    Shay,

    Thanks for the info but I have tried over and over again but no success. I have put pictures on the same sites other members have used but still no go, I have worked the IT folks at work and for some reason my system just does not want me to post pictures on this site. Some where some how something is being over looked but until then the galleries were my only option to sharing pics but their return has been a long time coming and I am not holding my breath so it looks like I will not be able to share any pics. Oh well

    Well, where are your photos stored right now, if you don't mind me asking? On your computer at home, or online in some form?

    Edit: If all else fails, you would e-mail me the pics, I have a permanent account I can put them on for you as long as we're talking less than 10 or so at a time.

    Och Aye!

    Of course put him in a kilt. Untill say about 1920 or so most boys in Scotland, Ireland and the USA up to about age ten wore kilts.

    When you make your son's kilt, make it over long with a long hem so that it can be let out later, and a velco fastened top also with a lot of extra material.

    Hmmm... I've been sewing down the pleats on my kilts so far, so I don't know about the hem letting out since I hem first then sew them....

    Wait a sec... just figured it out as I typed that- if I put a thick waistband on it, I can move that up as the years go on. The waist will look a little bunchy halfway up, but that's what belts are for.

    I was at a friend's house talking about my kilts, when my friend goes "Ooh! OOH!" and runs off, and comes back with an old skirt her daughter wore, and I'll be damned... switch the aprons around and it's a babykilt Put it on my son and snapped a few pics as he was playing 'swordfight' with a spoon He's 13 months old in these pics... (and yeah... Thats me NOT wearing mine that day in the background... shame on me...)





    The rest of the pics are at: Pics

    You are forgiven for not wearing your kilt, because those pictures are just soooooooooooo neat!

    Consider yourself chastised. But seriously, with the little one kilted NOBODY is going to notice you.
