Meet your little boy’s new favorite t-shirts! The Metro Hook and Ladder Fire Truck T-Shirt and the Crane Truck T-Shirt from Little Traveler feature detailed images of a fire truck and crane. Little boys will be mesmerized! The dirt on the Crane T-shirt is actually made of textured suede. And they say little girls have all the fun!

Another awesome shirt from Little Traveler is the Motorcross Racer T-Shirt. There’s an image of the “Bear Mountain Motorcross Grand Nationals” on the front and a large motorcycle wheel on the back of the shirt. A navy racing stripe runs down the sides of the arms.

Another cool touch on all three Little Traveler shirts are the rough hems. Very masculine! In sizes 12 months – 4T. Shop all our clothes for boys here.

I am in mix and match heaven with these delightful Fleece Jumpers by Country Kids. With three cheerful color choices for the Jumper (hot pink, surf blue and purple), the hardest decision is choosing just one. Coordinating tights are charming in Stripes or Kaleidoscope (see below photo). Match the turtleneck tops (in chocolate, hot pink and white) and you’re done!
Jumpers are classic and sweet with pockets on each side and two big buttons at the top. The soft, fleece material is cozy and comfortable. Pair the outfit with Mary Jane shoes and your little girl is ready for parties or playschool. Perfect for the holidays, too!
My only question is choosing which color jumper and which tights. Each option is cuter than the next. (Luckily, I have two daughters!)


Here is the perfect first day of preschool photo. This is what Charlotte thought of me pressuring her to stand still and smile while rushing her out of the house. My girl’s got sass and I love her for it. Of course, at the time, I wasn’t thrilled. “Charlotte, just stand still and smile at me for one second, PLEASE!” Yes, I was that Mom.
Would it really have mattered if we were a few minutes late to preschool? I mean, really. What would she have missed? Five minutes of playing at the sand table?
Does this ever happen to you? How do you get yourself to slow down and enjoy the moment when your Mom brain is on overdrive? Please, leave me a comment below. I would love to hear from you!
I really do like the photo. And doesn’t her Call of the Birds Dress look fabulous? – Elizabeth
