Family Friday: Long John Pajama Set
This post may contain affiliate links and CorporetteMoms may earn commissions for purchases made through links in this post. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
The matching PJ thing has leaped from winter holidays all the way to Halloween.
Hanna Andersson always has such fun prints, and their Halloween ones are darling. I just sent three sets to my nieces and nephew in this “candy apples” print. These soft, organic cotton pajamas have smooth seams for comfort and (as I can attest) last wash after wash. These pajamas currently come in seven prints ranging from ghosts and bats to gummy bears and pumpkins.
These pajamas are on sale starting at $13.29, depending on the print. They come in sizes 2 to 14-16.

Hi all – asking for my BFF who doesn’t read/post here – anyone have any experience giving their small children allergy drops?
BFF has terrible allergies to outside things (takes shots for them) and her younger child does too, so she’s hoping to minimize her experience for the kid. He’s 2 if that makes a difference.
I had an epiphany this morning re: how fathers versus mothers handle parental leave at my company. My employer is great in giving all parents (mother, father, birth or adoptive) generous leave. When women (including me) in my company take leave, they tend to *minimize* vacations/PTO except for the inevitable illnesses. When men in my company take leave, they make sure to *maximize* their PTO and sick leave. I just finished covering for a colleague’s 3 month leave (baby is 8 months), and now he’s asked me, two weeks later, to be his backup when he takes a four day weekend. At first, I was resentful — like, hey, you were JUST out. And then I realized — no, he’s actually using his benefits. Same thing happened last year with a different male colleague. Light bulb! I should use all MY vacation too! No real point, just an “aha” moment!
I need a gut check. I recently happened to see the kids in my toddler’s class eating lunch. One of the kiddos had a container full of whole grapes. They were brought from home, so it’s not like the school is serving them, but it still seems super weird to me. I mentioned something to the teacher who said that she thinks it’s odd too, but thats how the parents send them all the time and the child does fine with them whole. Is this a mind-my-own-business thing?
My concern is that even if that child can eat them whole, another child (including my 2 year old) could pick them up off the floor or something and choke. But I don’t want to be the parent that’s critiquing other parents’ lunch choices either. So I don’t know what to do.
I’ve been gone since Sunday (and my husband and son left on Friday) and this week was a rough one. I normally take two buses from the airport to home, and my husband decided that he’d get T ready for bed, throw him in the car, and come and get me so I don’t have to wait til the morning for a cuddle. My son likes to roll down his window as they pull into the pick-up and yell “where’s my lovely muuuuummmmyyyyy!” to the delight of the other people waiting for taxis.
Anything you’re looking forward to this weekend?
How do you do the room set up at hotels for family vacations? We’ll have a 4 and 6 year old mixed gender siblings. They sleep in their own rooms at home and are not used to sharing a room, much less sharing a bed. It seems egregious to stay in hotels with 2 bedrooms every time so each child can have their own bed, but I also dont see the 1 bedroom set up where mom and dad sleep in the king bed and the kids having to share the queen pull out couch in the living room working. Any ideas? I could see if the hotel would provide one rollaway bed. I want hotel amenities, so not looking to do an airbnb.
Also, meals, do you typically eat out for every meal or do breakfast at home? We’re new to traveling frequently, so would love your best tips! Thanks!
PSA – just go ahead and buy the matching Hanna Christmas pajamas now. I usually get a generic ‘winter’ theme and wear them all year. Actually, my (adult) Hanna long John pajamas are some of my favorites. Not sheer, wash well, appropriate to wear around other humans…
Mine got shipped this week and I’m kind of thrilled to have our ‘Christmas Eve Gift’ checked off our list.
We are dealing with our first run-in with Covid in our house and I’m at my wit’s end. We had to miss my sister’s wedding and a work conference already. Now it seems like we’re on the “extended” track – Kid 1 tested positive 2 weeks ago, then kid 2 last week, now #3 tested positive maximizing our childcare issues. Per our health dept, kids 1 and 2 can go back to school, since they’re past their isolation. Does this mean we need to cancel their Halloween plans this weekend? Obv we wouldn’t take #3, but if the other 2 are back in school do they need to miss out? The guidelines are so unclear, so just wondering if anyone’s been there and has insight.
