Black leather gloves have a permanent place in my cold weather wardrobe.

So I’m eyeing these sleek leather gloves from Nordstrom — they’re lined with soft, luxurious cashmere; feature touchscreen-compatible fingertips to keep you connected; and come in two go-with-everything colors. They also come in a wide range of sizes, perfect for my very small hands.

If you’re up for some early holiday shopping, these would make a great gift.

These gloves are $99 at Nordstrom. They come in black and “saddle” and are available in half and whole sizes 6–9.

For a more affordable option, these similar gloves from Lands’ End are currently 50% off, making them only $39.97. They can be personalized with a single initial for an additional $8.

I know there is abundant info on the internet, but I appreciate all of your expertise so much… please share your tips for flying with a 3 month old. It would be a short, non-stop flight. My questions include… lap child or car seat? Bring car seat and base or have grandparents buy a set? Our baby is currently in the Snoo bassinet for naps and at night, so we’d have to all adjust to a regular pack and play or something…
Any and all tips and tricks for the actual travel part or for optimizing the logistics of the visit itself are welcome!

Any recommendations for a magazine subscription for our 5-year-old son for an Xmas present? We’re getting a Kazoo magazine subscription for 7-year-old daughter, would love something of similar quality for him. We already get Highlights/High-Five. He loves superheroes, vehicles, math/engineering, reading.

Has anyone seen a recently updated timeline for Pfizer approval for the 2-5 year old set? The last I saw was the data was 1-2 months behind the 5-11 year old data. If that is still the case, we should expect Pfizer to submit the data to FDA for approval within the next month right? (5-11 year old package went in at the end of September I believe).

I cannot find this answer through googling so turning you all. My daughter got the cutest decorative pillow as a gift and wouldn’t ya know it, puked all over it. (She’s not a puker, this has never happened before.) It is not washable” per the directions. Should I try to wash it b/c otherwise I’d just have to toss it? What would you do?

Last night DS asked for an upgrade on his towel, which is embarrassingly old! I think he still likes the hooded situation – is there a good source for more grown up towels for like the 5-7 year old crowd?

Favorite vacation spot in Mexico? For me and a girlfriend, no kids. We do not need a swimmable beach. I’m leaning toward all inclusive but open to anything. Budget is $$-$$$.

My four year old said, “I’m going to put Tuesday on my Christmas list!”
?!?!?!?
Creative hive suggestions?
Anyone else’s kids asking for odd holiday gifts?

Anyone with 5-11 year olds got the vaccine yet? I haven’t read anything about after affects and I’m wondering if it will be as hard for my 5 year old as it was for my husband and me–we were both very sick for about 48 hours after both shots. Any anecdata welcome!

My employer has asked everyone to declare their intentions regarding permanent WFH. Anyone who does not have regularly scheduled days in the office will lose their office. It makes sense for me to go full-time WFH because I have a 120-mile round-trip commute and everyone with whom I work on projects will be WFH. I have only spent about five days in the office since March 2020. So why am I so sad to give up my lovely window office with two big bookcases and a conference table? I feel so shallow and yet also so defeated. I guess it’s because I am being forced to admit that the desk in my bedroom is where I’ll be for the next couple of decades or so.

I have given up on touchscreen gloves. They never work and I end up pulling them off to use my phone anyway.

Any comments on Olive & June manicure sets? I notice I take much better care of my nails (not biting/picking) when they’re done, but when I do them on my own they don’t look great. Are these sets the miracles they’re made out to be in ads and blog posts I’ve seen? I’m guessing not but who knows.

We want to introduce formula for my seven week old. We already gave her the similac from the hospital when we needed to supplement early but curious what formula you all have liked and would recommend? I’d go deep on research and reviews but I’m not sure I’m sleeping enough right now to understand anything! FWIW I plan to continue breastfeeding and pump while at work but I want to be able to supplement and eventually switch to formula at around six months.

For those of you with a vaccine eligible kid and a non-vaccine eligible kid (i.e. a 5 year old and a 3 year old, like me), what are your plans for this upcoming winter? Are you feeling more comfortable with indoor activities like museums, playspaces, indoor gyms, etc.)? We didn’t go to any of those last winter but I also don’t necessarily want to spend another winter freezing while trying to get these kids’ energy out! My older kid is the more active one so we may just end up dividing and conquering but I’m curious to see if anyone’s risk analysis is changing. We’re not planning to travel anywhere but that’s mostly because I have local parents and the other grandparents can come to us (and also I’m not quiiite ready to travel with the ages of the kids – probably next year).
