Lem and Bird must have been close to the actor that plays their baby

He smiles when they kiss him and everything

That little boy (boys, maybe? Young actors tend to be twins) was just BEYOND precious. I was dreading the day when we got a new Jeremiah (not the very first one, he was a baby), but going into season three, it looks like it's the same kid. He reacts to them naturally with the hand clapping and the laughing - it's crazy. I love him.

No its just one boy because if they were twins they would have wrote both of their names and they only wrote one name

And that was the same kid throughout the show(as a toddler), the only time it was a different kid was probably the first and second episode, because it was a lightskinned baby, they did that right because all baby's are lightskinned at first when they are born. Then they switched the baby

What's the kid's name? I didn't see it here at IMDb, but I may have just overlooked it.

It seems that every kid that guestarred on that show is from Canada. I guess they went local since Soul food was shot in Toronto Canada
