    oh crap revised to well heck

    We realized about a week or two ago that my eldest hit a growth spurt and out grew his S SWK. Then we figured we would keep them for his brother, but we could only find 1 kilt, his Irish National, and not his Black Watch (Which was his first kilt, just over a yer ago.

    I found last week that his brother can already, more or less, wear his old kilt. But I really wanted to use the BW more, since it is darker, and would hide the dirt better.

    Today, I finally found the BW kilt. His grandma (the one that is ok with kilts, not the crazy one) had folded it and put it in his P@nt# drawer. We spent hours looking for it.

    Now all I need to do is get him a SWK Medium to last until I can get his order in for a FK camo.


    Enzo is now 17 months, give or take. Mark wore his S until just before his 5th birthday. I should expect Enzo to be able to wear his brothers old kilts for about 3 years or longer. Makes the SWK kids kilts a good deal, but I still want his brother (the 5 yo) to have a custom kilt, even if I don't have one yet.

    Well kids in kilts are one of the cutest things I've ever seen. Be sure to post pictures when you get them.

    I have posted pics of my eldest in his kilt before, but here are the ones I have online of him. Both kilts will be worn by his brother, perhaps as soon as tomorrow.






    The Pikachu kilt pin got lost at Ikea a few months back. We have at least 1 blanket pin he can wear on his, but they seem hard to find after I bought them. (I got a good one when I was at a fest with Mike (in?from? something like that) Dayton and that stays on my kilt, and I can't remember if I have 1 or 2 of the three cheap ones I got the next day. Our Q farm and fleet store closed YEARS ago, so I havn't come across an even cheaper cache of them yet.

    (Yeah, that was the way he was smiling for a while early this year. I don't know why.)

    Great photos. Kids always steal the show,...and a kilt just helps them to do it with greater speed. I remember when mine were that age.

    Enzo is now in possession of his older brothers kilts. He didn't seem fazed by the 'bulky' bit of cloth around him. It's still a bit long, but it should last a while.

    His brother likes it, this is the first time he has been able to hand down clothes to his brother without a 3 year gap.

    Do you have a Joann's Fabrics in the area? I have seen "Blanket" pins on the accessory and notions wall.
    If you see abbreviations, initials or acronyms you do not know the Xmarks FAQ section on abbreviations may help.

    I will have to check there. We are in an area with a strong 4H, so I should be able to find for less than @ joanns though.

    when thinking of small kids, their propensity for growth and frequent pit stops makes perfect sense.
