Family Friday: Design Your Own Valentines Kit

I remember making my own valentines as a kid — one design involved a construction paper bunny with a cotton ball for a tail.
If your kids are crafty like I was, here’s a fun DIY valentine kit they’ll enjoy. The kit contains cards, felt hearts, stickers, gemstones, glitter pens, sequins, and more! They can even use the box as a mailbox to collect their own cards from friends, family, and loved ones.
This Kid Made Modern valentines kit is $24.99 at Nordstrom.
P.S. Depending on where you live, this kit is available for next-day in-store pickup!

Taking 3 year old DS on a 16- hour flight. What are some games that we can download on our devices? Welcome any other advice as well!
My MIL is a compulsive shopper. She buys my kids a TON of unneeded and unwanted clothes. Despite several attempts to get her to stop, she still inundates us constantly. Mostly I just donate them immediately. The issue is that she keeps buying the special occasion clothes like Easter and Christmas dresses for my toddler. This bothers me more. Firstly, I want to buy the special clothes (I know this sounds silly!) but also, I can’t just hide them because MIL will notice daughter isn’t wearing what she bought. I’m not going to have daughter put on MIL’s dress just for a photo; she fights getting dressed so I’m not doing that battle more than necessary. Any ideas for this? I don’t like MIL but see her weekly and need to keep things cordial. My husband has told her repeatedly that we don’t want the clothes and her reply is always guilt laden and of course blames me.
Question about “normal” pediatric care…Kiddo spiked a 103.1 degree fever at daycare, so I picked him up and took him to the pediatricians’. They told me there’s no reason to bring him in unless he has a febrile seizure, which is obviously an ER trip. They’ve told me this repeatedly, more and more clearly, and obviously think I’m overreacting. But everything I’ve seen online says that a fever that high with a RISK of febrile seizures should be seen by a doctor.
Am I overreacting based on out-dated info? Or are my pediatricians underreacting?
Currently 9 weeks pregnant with my second and morning sickness is kicking my butt. I have saltines and jolly ranchers on deck! Really worried about a lunch meeting scheduled today, we are going to a popular steak place and meat is not my friend lately. Anyone else in a similar boat? So thankful to be pregnant again, but first trimester is so tough.
I’m sure this is a browser issue, but the top of my screen has a big black “subscribe to Corporette Moms” bar, and the bottom is a huge advertisement bar, and there is always a floating ad that pops up as well. The subscribe bar is new…but the actual webpage I want to see is shrinking!
Kilian or Killian?
My husband and I are considering the name Killian/Killian for our son-to-be. We don’t like the other spellings (Cillian, Kylian, etc), but can’t quite decide on how many L’s.
Any preferences from this group?
