Five years ago this October we moved to the Dallas area for Curtis to be the student pastor at FBC Irving. On the Sunday that the church voted us in, Pastor John arranged for several couples we'd never met to have lunch with us at the Olive Garden. It's funny to think about who those couples were because Pastor John totally had us pegged. We ended up being good friends with all of them. That's how I met Christie Simons.
Christie is the kind of person who is a true servant. The first morning after our arrival, she came to my house to help me organize my kitchen. She really didn't know me from Adam, but she helped me whip that tiny (seriously tiny) kitchen into shape. She also helped spearhead the amazing baby shower that our church gave us for Jackson. I would come to know Christie as not only a friend, but also as one of the most capable, intelligent, and creative women I'd ever met. She and her husband are also amazing singers and musicians. In fact, they have a full-out, professional recording studio in their house. If I could call any of my friends rock stars, it would be them!
Several months ago, I found out that Christie was going to start a line of clothing for boys. It didn't take long after her son, Jude, was born to realize that there weren't a ton of offerings out there for cool boy clothes. From that moment on, I was waiting on pins and needles to see what she would come up with.
Well, the time has come. Christie's clothing line - He's All Boy - has launched! Check out her little man model.
And guess what? I get to do a giveaway! Woo hoo! (It took all of 5 minutes before I started my shameless begging.) I know how disappointed y'all were when I didn't give away that sweet felt Christmas commode cover. I want to make things right!
Here's what you need to do to enter the giveaway. Go visit the He's All Boy web site and take a look at the t-shirts and onesies, then come back here and tell me which one would be perfect for the "All Boy" kid in your life.
I will do a random drawing on Saturday. The winner will receive the t-shirt or onesie of their choice (sizes range from 0-12 m to 4T). When you leave your comment, please make sure I have a way to contact you if you win.
Also, Christie is offering a 20% discount to my readers. Bonus! I told you she's a rock star. The coupon code will be babybangs. He's All Boy will be adding new designs and periodically running specials, so sign up for the newsletter if you'd like to be notified.
Well, I've got to go get my hair washed. We have our last Metro tonight. I'm so proud of my man and I can't wait to hear his last message. It just so happens to be on marriage. I wonder if he's gonna tell something on me. He best not forget that I have a blog. Muahahahaha!

I love the Layne T with the guitar. Very cute shirts and the models are just adorable!

These are very cute! I would have to say the one that would fit my son to a "tee" is the microphone. He loves being on a stage already!
There is a definite lack of boy clothing. Very cute.

I couldn't agree more about boy clothes!! The shirts your friend has created are super cool!! :) I love all of them. I have one 2 year old who loves drums and guitars (plus anything else he can make a musical instrument from). I would say if I won this giveaway I would pick the guitar shirt (Layne T). We play air guitars all the time and even make up our own lyrics! :) I love it!!
You can contact me at hmarshall829@yahoo.com. Thanks!!!
The guitar shirt would be perfect for my little guy. His dad plays the guitar and Bentley would think it would be way cool to have one on a shirt.... and my little guy is 100% ALL BOY!!!
Jennifer
jenmom1707@yahoo.com
My little grandson Jaxon would be adorable in the "Kevin T" in 2T. He is definitely all boy and it is hard to find cute boy clothes.
So which one is Jackson going to end up with?
You can contact me through my blog (my name has the link) or e-mail: the_whittakers2001@yahoo.com....if I'm lucky enough to win.
Thanks Amanda!!
PS...I enjoy hearing your man's messages too...I get them through iTunes in the podcasts. He does real well.
I love it. My best friend and her husband our so trendy and total rock stars. She is going to totally love this site. Thanks for the heads up.
I have two boys... and a third on the way... but my brother and SIL just found out they're having a boy (second baby, first boy for them). My brother is a GREAT drummer, so the T-shirt with the drums would be perfect for their soon-to-be little man! That's the one I would get! :)
Very cute stuff!!!
I like the guitar shirt best, my smallest guy likes to play guitar hero with his big sister
If I win you can contact me through my blog: www.alexmatthewandryan.blogspot.com or email at dinamarie715@yahoo.com

You can contact me at my blog if I win... http://www.littlebitsofourlife.blogspot.com

The guitar shirt is super cute but I think the Daniel T with the drums is my favorite. I could just see my "All Boy" playing a set of drums. :)

Hey Amanda...
I like the Daniel T. all of the t-shirts and onesies are cute but just can see Cole with that drum shirt!
If I win you can contact me via my email: beckanie@yahoo.com

Definitely the drum set. I already sent a link to the page for my cousin who has a boy 6 months older than my daughter. She loves those kind of shirts for her son, Rocco.
You can contact me through my blog or acbourg@gmail.com.
Great line of boys clothes! It was difficult to choose, but I like the Layne onesie the best in 12 months.
Thanks for the giveaway!
The V T is my fave!! cool stuff.
jillboog@yahoo.com
The drums tee for MY Jackson would be too cute... He loves all things music, instruments & singing...wondering what the Lord will do with this passion?!?! :-) Shannon giuntoli@nwi.net
There sure is a lack of cool/cute boys clothes.
The Blake T seems to sum my our family and boys best...a little straight laced and a little fun and wild. ....Dad and I are both CPAs and we have a sign that says CPA's count, so the neck tie is a cute fit.
you can contact me at my by posting a comment on one of my blog posts at wencked.blogspot.com
We have two boys and my husband's a drummer, so my favorite is definitely the one with the drumset! Love to see creative boy clothes!
l love the Kevin T for my little guy!
jana_mccraine(at)hotmail(dot)com
Cute! I love the Blake T! What a talented friend.
I just love the guitar onsie! This stuff is so great for little boys! Thank you so much for sharing!
I know my lil' man would look so cute in the Layne T!
Fun stuff!
LOVE the blake t... i have three boys so this shirt would definitely get worn out at my house! :)
branandboys@gmail.com
I don't know my son (LOVE saying that!) just yet but with a name like Bladen he has to be a rock star! These onesies are just too much. I like the one on your blog - the Kevin onesie. Thanks, Amanda!
(I have to say - after your last post a couple times ago finding out how we all know you... I wish we really were friends! You bless my days!)
Love the red hair on that darling little boy!
Oh I LOVE the drum shirt for my little drummer! (He's also my 2nd born and was just letting me know today how sad he was he never gets new things.)
I'm easiest to get at tina (at) the-miles (dot) org
My two and half year old would love the Daniel tee. His uncle is a drummer and we make special visits just so he can play the drums. Well, he really just bangs on whatever drums or cymbals are set up at the moment. He also "plays the drums" on paint cans, his legs in the car seat and sadly even on baby sister's head. Is two and half too young for lessons?
:) wendy@mcswaindesign.com
I LOVE the guitar tshirt!
Definately a cool tshirt!
If I happen to win, you can email me mindymc5@gmail.com
I can't get past the first page on her site. How do I order from her for my grandson?
Oh, I love the Daniel T with the drum set. Both of my little guys love to make noise!
nkennard (at) kennardfamilyweb (dot) com
The tie t-shirt would be so perfect for my nephew {and to be passed down to me if I have a son :).} He is definitely "all boy!"
mrstimberlake10@gmail.com
All of these are adorable! My eleven week old baby boy tries to be fashionable, but it's so hard to find cute stuff! I get annoyed every time I go to Walmart or Target and see the 10 racks of baby girl stuff and the one rack of baby boy stuff stuck in the corner! Annoying!
I love the Blake onesie. It reminds me of a little tuxedo t-shirt...it says formal, but I'm ready to party! :)
I can be reached at Shelbus99@gmail.com. Thank you!
Great site - as the (fairly) new mother of a boy I can testify to the limited selection of cool boys clothes - so excited to see what they keep coming up with! I think my favorite is the Layne T in 12months. You can contact my on my blog at www.jonesbabyblog.blogspot.com or email at theresamjones@hotmail.com
Thanks for the great website!
I like the Blake T. Too cute!
bobandgreta(at)gmail(dot)com
Oh! I am so inlove with the clothing line and my sweet little Carter LOVES Playing daddy's rockband drums so the black t-shirt with the drumkit is SO him! He used to kick me like crazy when I was pregnant when he heard the drums being played, now at 16 months, he has really gotten into the "hands on" experience of the "bam-bam-bas", If i am fortunate enough to get the luck of the draw, you can contact me at: chasingafterfaith.blogspot.com or tararigsby@gmail.com
Thanks for the opportunity :o)
This is not even right for my first comment on your Blog to be for a giveaway, so first of all, "Hi, my name is Lindsay, and I read your Blog all the time." ;) Second of all, my little man Jackson would LOVE the Blake T...or at least I would love for him to rock it. If I win, my email address is lindsay.silvio@gmail.com.
Your Blog really is a blessing, and I love keeping up with your precious kiddos! Thanks!
PS - I really like these shirts! Thanks for sharing.
The Daniel T hands down. My hubs is a drummer, just bought a new kit, and my MC 2 loves to play them. He packs the sticks around, has his own ear phones, and does solos. You can contact me at rbaker95whoop@gmail.com
Such cute clothes! I love the Blake T! Thanks for a chance to win! :)
hayley22478@yahoo.com
The guitar shirt is all my son.
Well, I had to ask my 3 year old son the question and he stated, "The drummer boy shirt!" Caleb (Jan 06) loves to drum on anything!
Thanks for asking....
Karen (karenasbury@bellsouth.net)
Oh my gosh, those are so cute! I love the guitar one! Adorable!
How cute.. I will take one of each please. :) I particularly love the lil Kevin T. My lil man Jax would look pretty stink'n cute in it. I have to say I enjoy your blog.
Love the Layne. I've got an (almost) 4 year old and another boy due in September (with a diva in the middle) and I know they would look great in these!
Those designs are too cute! After much deliberation I've decided upon the Blake T. We live out in the desert (high triple digit temps right now) and we wear as little as possible right now. This one would look adorable and dressy all in one! Thanks for giving us the heads up on some clothes for out little ones.
Janette (ritzdeals@me.com)
I love the guitar t-shirt. If by some off chance I win, you can contact me via my blog.
Jamie
These shirts rock!
I think the Daniel T would suit our 15 mos. old boy the best as he really likes to bang the vacuum cleaner attachments on the dryer door.
My contact: mmbrotherton@msn.com
Thank you!
By the way, I currently have quite the baby bang hairdo these days.
Oh My Goodness. Too Cute!! I love, love, love the the drums t-shirt. My fourth and final doesn't have a quiet bone in his body. If anything can stand out in the band, it would sooo be the drums!! HA!!
Thanks for the introduction this line! I'm lovin' it!!
Wow, I love them all!! My son loves anything and everything to do with music. My favorite is the drums. I don't think it will be hard to convince my husband that we need one of each since he is a musician himself. Thanks for sharing her site with us. My email is lisahouchin@sbcglobal.net.
I like the "Layne T". It's the guitar one. These are SO cool! And I definitely have an ALL BOY, boy! Thanks Amanda!
I like the Kevin Onsie...the ones with the star.
kjoyeldridge@gmail.com
Thanks!
I'm so happy to know about these cute T's. I wish they would have been around when my seven year old was younger. I have a three year old who would love the Daniel T. He likes to rock out on the drums when big brother and dad play rock band. They are truly both all boy. I also have a nephew arriving in November and will be getting a onesie for him. Thanks for sharing such cute boy clothing. It is so hard to find.
Vicki, you'll just need to click on the shopping cart icon on the bottom right corner of the screen.
Love them! Who hasn't heard 'boy clothes aren't as cute as girl clothes?' My son would look like a rock star in the Layne T size 4T. Thanks for your efforts in a giveaway and for sharing her site. Kristina, kbfrazee427@aol.com.
I would LOVE the Layne onesie! My son is just 9 weeks, but his bedroom is decorated in a "rockstar" theme, and that was the theme of my baby shower!
What a wonderful line! You can contact me by email: patricia.brewer@gmail.com
I am loving the VT microphone style for my almost 2-year old. (who is also named Jackson) I'm a musician and I would love for him to be! We'll see what the future holds!
I am loving the DanielT (set of drums). Our grandson is in love with drums. He will some day be the rock star in our family. What a great stories...thanks for sharing them with us.

ohhh the layne onsie. the worship leader (who actually used to be the leader singer in nickel and dime...a little before my time) and his wife are having their first in december and JUST found out they're having a BOY! There have been tons of girls born in our community, so its pretty exciting to have a boy in the mix! the whole "rockstar" theme will fit them well!!!
anna.cordes@gmail.com
I like the *Layne* shirt (guitar). Makes me think of my son dancing around all the time with the guitar, who is 2. He also would by all means fit the all boy shirt... much different than my sweet, CALM! daughter. Got to love the boys though, I have two!
If I win...Pls, Pls, Pls!!!! xoxo with kisses on top, you can contact me through email and I can get in touch with you , and finally get to talk to you * Yay me* ....
I like the Blake T (with the tie). They are all so cute!!
I think my email comes up with my comments, but just in case: j_dbridges@bellsouth.net.
Love the guitar tshirt. I would love to get this in a size 12 month for my little nephew! SO cute!
tbmroberts at yahoo dot com
I love the guitar onesie. My daddy is a rocking guitar man, and I would love for Alex to sport the guitar onesie for my dad's big guitar competition coming up. Gramps would be so proud! You can contact me at worldchanger77@hotmail.com
My name is Michelle.
Thanks
Michelle
I'm all ABOUT the Blake T-shirt!
And my son showed exactly how much he is ALL BOY last night when we went to a b'day party at someone's house. My normally quiet, reserved little boy absolutely bounced off the walls...before he ate cake!
superchikk@cox.net
I love the Daniel T - by son is one loud boy and I am quite sure he is going to be a drummer someday -- he LOVES the noise!
I love the Kevin T!!
juliepholt@gmail.com
I like the tee withthe tie! So cute, cant wait to see what more she comes up with.
I like the Blake Onesie. The tie is so cute!

I would LOVE the blake shirt (the one with the tie) It would be too cute on my little rockstar!!!
shannonhaynes.blogspot.com
I like them all but my favorite is the Daniel T.
The guitar one - hands down.
My middle guy (I have THREE all boys that I have to struggle to find cool clothes for)has been begging to learn to play the "contar" for awhile now. He starts lessons next month. This would be perfect for him! Thanks!
I love the Kevin T, I have two boys, so I'm not sure what size? Either a 18 months, or 4T. These are awesome, I'm so excited to find some great boy shirts!
Ya'll should check out H&M, that is where we get almost all of our boys clothes, they are cool, and cheap, can't beat that.
The Blake T is too cute...I was thinking about ordering...but my 3 1/2 year old Bonky probably wouldn't fit in it. : (
SO cute, though!
I love this line!! I have 3 boys and all three are ALL BOY, especially my middle boy. I love the star shirt, it just says it perfectly!!
I like the Blake T, with the tie and guitar
It is like a mullet, both a party and business :) Ha ha...just kidding.
My email is: cehunter0517@yahoo.com
The Blake T or the Layne T - I think those are my two faves, although everything is adorable! I have the cutest godson in the world, who is truly ALL boy, and this would be perfect for him. Thanks, Amanda and Christie!
I love the Kevin T! It would be perfect for my little man who is 100% all boy!!!
apkweber@gmail.com
The guitar onesie is aaaaadorable! Your friend is awesome for chasing this dream of hers! It would be so fun to bless my sister-in-law with that onesie for her brand new baby boy! It's totally their style!
God bless!
Super Cute! My Cade would be rockin' in that ROCK STAR (Kevin) t-shirt. Very fun.
Kristin

Love the tie t-shirt! So cute!
The V T seems like it was made for my son. He LOVES music and LOVES to sing. He can pick up words to a song almost instantly and then sings them over and over and over. He recently inherited a microphone from his cousin, and he's taken to getting on his stage (our fireplace) and performing for us. I think his best was the 30 minute full-volume concert we got the other morning at 4:30 a.m. (fortunately from his bedroom).
My blog is www.kkskipper.blogspot.com
Cute, cute, cute stuff... My favorite is the tshirt with the drum set. Finally, some cute boy clothes!
katiehayes5@yahoo.com
Funny thing is that I read this post while I was sorting through baby clothes looking for a cute outfit for my 4-week-old baby boy to wear to our small group study. Didn't find much. I love the little tie onesie. Too too cute.
lesliemaddox@gmail.com
Love them all - love the drums the best.
Only boys and with 3 of them, I completely understand how hard it is to find cute outfits for them. There just aren't many stores out there to choose from...
My 2nd son will have a birthday at the end of this month. He is so into music (Boomerang Express is his favorite at the moment) I would love the guitar t-shirt (4T)
Thanks!
Heather

My little man would love the guitar T-shirt. He always goes into his older brother's room, and heads straight for the guitar. He would be adorable wearing it! Thanks Amanda! I love your blog!
I can be reached at vallette5@yahoo.com.
You know how to get me!!!!!!!!!! :) I love the one that says "He's all boy" in the star!! :)
moppyca@gmail.com
I posted pics of Titus' nursery by the way! :)
the size 4T would be great with the guitar. My little cousin loves to "air" jam to KSBJ.

ok, this is not about the giveaway. But on youtube there is a video about ministers wives.
It starts with three different men preaching. And they say my wife this or my wife that. Then three women come on and start singing. The lyrics are a riot. About how she is going to invite her mother to come stay with them all summer and bring the dogs.
I like the Kevin T (star). I have a 10 month old who is All boy at 24 pounds. He is wearing 18 months already!! Thanks, Allison
jagfletcher@juno.com
SUCH a CUTE website and LOVE all of her shirts! I think my fave is the one you posted with the star! I have an 8 month old baby boy and it is challenging finding faulous clothes, put it's possible, thats for sure! Thanks for posting this!
