My littlest is super particular about what he wears — he will only wear cuffed pants. These from Primary are his favorites.
These joggers come in more colors than the rainbow (19!) so they’re bound to have your child’s favorite. These soft, comfy pants are warm without being stifling — just what you need for cool spring days. They’re made from easy-care cotton/spandex and have pockets and a functional drawstring waist for a custom fit.
These joggers are $28 and come in sizes 2–14 (some colors lucky sizes only).

For those of you who had an early childcare option other than daycare (so, nanny/au-pair/family watching/stayed home), when did you have your child start preschool?
Our oldest will be 3 in October, and we have had a nanny since she was 4 months old. I recently had another baby so will be keeping nanny regardless. Should I be sending her to preschool starting in September (when she’ll be almost 3) or is waiting another year okay?
I admit that I kind of dropped the ball on thinking about this and it seems like a lot of local options are already full for September start…
We’re flying overnight from the Eastern US to Europe in a few weeks. Any advice for getting kids to sleep on the plane? We have a 2 year old and 6 year old.
Do you have any practical strategies for combating resentment in marriage?
Next week is teacher appreciation week at preschool. They have of course suggested things like candles, flowers, little spa packs, etc. This is a totally acceptable time to just give them maybe $20 each and a card signed by kid?
Is it okay to give out favor bags if you tell guests not to bring gifts?
