I had this BRILLIANT IDEA months ago that I would get B red pajamas for Christmas like Lllama Llama and the little Llama Llama doll.
He loves Lllama LLama Nighty Night and two other Llama LLama books but still doesn't have the Red Pajama book so I thought pajamas plus doll plus book. Christmas owned.
Thus started the saga of WHERE CAN I BUY RED PAJAMAS? Seriously every pair of two piece pajamas has Buzz Lightyear on them or Cars or super heroes. Or is $60. I am pretty sure I can buy A REAL LLAMA for $60.
I also didn't want Christmas ones with Santa Claus OR HO HO HO because I want them to not look stupid in March.
Today I found these:
from the Gap. There is no writing on them. No stupid characters. Just red with white piping. I am at peace.
Awesome! My current struggle: Finding shirts with realistic fire trucks, buses, or "diggers" on them that do not also have words on them. No, I don't want it to say "future hero," "rescue squad," or "digging for trouble," damn it.
Related: why do clothes get uglier/dumber as kids get older? Infant clothes are often free of stupid slogans, but as soon as the sizes cross into 2T, the designers apparently unleash their pent-up slogans. OMG.

Did you see the stuff kershnic posted the other day? So cute for boys!

Nooo but this stuff is awesome! That's exactly my style! And organic/made in the US? The prices, though. LOL. (Yes, I know they're reasonable considering the design/fabric/made in the US aspects. Wonder if they have sales...) Edit: Duh, sale section. LOVE the hammer and nails shirt. Hmm. Thanks, kershnic!

Yeah, I love that Winter Water Factory stuff, but it's definitely in "I could buy a real llama instead" territory.

LOL we already have that Carter's firetruck shirt and I asked E about the crane one, but it's not a digger, so he wasn't interested. Ha. Jumping Beans has actually been a realllly great option, too, and I've bought a few non-sloganed truck and animal shirts. It's just that these days E wants a truck or bus shirt every day of the week, so I'm keeping my eyes open for other options that aren't ugly. Sigh. And like karinothing, I prefer all-over patterns to graphics. Pattern>graphic>graphic with slogan, but getting a kid dressed without tantrums trumps all. I'm going to be really bummed when E outgrows this Zutano shirt:

That shirt is so cute! I love that style too, but it's so hard to find in things that aren't crazy expensive.

Not helpful, but when DS1 was 2, MIL got him a digger shirt I hated that said, "DIRT. I dig 24/7" and I swear to god he is wearing it in every picture I have of him for like an 8 month period. Ugh.
LOLOL. Every morning our bus ("BUS! Ride BUS!") goes by a construction site with excavators ("DIGGERS. Diggers dig DIRT. Put in DUMP TRUCK!") so that shirt would be perfect for him. Sigh.

this is so freaking adorable. I love Llama Llama, DS not so much.

I bought those (Gap) PJ's - they're EXACTLY what I was just lamenting to my sister that I didn't have for DS for holidays - they'll be so cute for Christmas morning hanging-out pictures!

My son got these as hand-me-downs when he was a baby and I LOVED them. They were so soft too!

My DD loves llama llama. She found this toy about a year ago and decided it was llama llama and has been sleeping with and carrying it everywhere since.
