New Bairn, New Kilt

[New World Czech]

Congrats G-pa, awsome little guy. I wish someone had bought me a kilt at that age. I wasted 49 years without the joys of kilting, trying to make up for it now.

What a pleasure to see such a proud and happy grandpa and such a sweet and strong little lad! I can't wait to see the kilt photos, and I love his name.

He's Alexander Everett Killman--I'd mentioned his birth earlier. but we're planning a little outing around Thanksgiving or Christmas in his new attire. I have received notice that both have shipped, so we;ll be in business soon.

@Father Bill, the moustache is already planned. I can wield an eyebrow pencil just fine.

He and I will wear our Leatherneck tartans together, but I'm still trying to decide how to make a bonnet in such a wee size. I have to admit that I share Jock's dislike of a flat cap with the kilt.

BTW: his dad bought the flat hat, and I got mine out as soon as he showed up in his.

He's soooo sweet. I have an outfit planned already for my yougin' when he comes along and greets me....in like 100 years.

This shirt is way too awesome and I must have it for my kid. Especially because my more-than-likely dark haired, brown eyed, half-brown baby will probably cause a little confusion at highland games

and a little baby kilt in Londonderry, Cork, or Irish National

<----- ohhh...ohhh....oh my gosh. That kid is so cute, it makes me want to cry.

the kilt from SWK arrived last Friday--about ten minutes after Lex left my office with his mother, so we haven't tiied it on yet. Also, I don't have any photos yet, but I did have to give Stillwater yet another push for being so very dependable.

The Leatherneck tartan will look great on that boy, but I'll wait until the sporran arrives to get a photo op. (It's in the mail.) Of course, a rag would good on that boy, but the kilt is great.

After dealing with with them, I tend to be very impatient with everyone else from whom I receive shipments. If they can do it, why can't everyone? (I am pretty sure I know; they either don't want to or don't have to!)

You’re a proud grandpa indeed, Jim!
But I am sure you will swell with even greater pride when the two of you kilt up.
Not sure why you got the bairn’s kilt in Leatherneck, though. What if he wants to be in the air force?
Regards,
Mike
