Champion small person. He's going to look the business, not that he doesn't already.

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.

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 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.
