Yep, the t-shirts arrive the other day and I spent a good chunk of this past Saturday morning checking inventory with Jackson. A rather unpleasant task made pleasant by a very upbeat and driven 3 year old. It’s pretty clear that he’s got solid project management skills just like his mama.

For this round of tees we’ve decided to use Rabbit Skins which are manufactured by a company called L.A.T. Sportswear. We sampled a variety of shirts and decided on RS for a bunch of reasons, the primary ones being fit, comfort and color choices. Their customer service also rocks, which in this day and age, is a big selling factor for me.

The art and shirts have been delivered to the screen printer and it looks like the first run will happen towards the end of next week. We’re all pretty excited around here.

One of my New Year’s resolutions was a promise to myself to post more frequent updates to the lello Website. We’ll… it’s now the beginning of April and looking at the Website and number of times I’ve posted, it’s pretty obvious, that like my well-intentioned-work-out-regime, this resolution is also out the window.

That said, I would like to take a quick minute to mention that we’re busily working on new toddler t-shirt designs that should be ready for sale in May (May of this year… for those skeptics out there). In-fact, I’ve been working like a possessed man lately trying to get everything lined up and to the screen printer by (ahem) today… which is now looking like Monday (doh).

Aaannnnyhooo… once I deliver the art and have a minute to breathe, I’ll circle back and give you enthusiasts a sneak peek at the t-shirt designs, etc. I promise.
