2.) If your son wants to wear pj's all day, go with it. Even if you're going somewhere...who cares?? No one, but you maybe. It isn't worth all of the stress of the struggle.
I am not trying to sound as though I'm a perfect mom, so I hope that it hasn't come across that way. These are just some things that I have learned over the past 11 years. There have been times where my older daughter has scared the bejeezers out of me! She is now almost as big as I am, and she likes to remind me of that every now and then.  Not fun! Then, despite my fears, I use those same techniques & tell her that I love her very much, but I don't like that thing/s that she said & did. (Always done after the dust has settled though) First thing is the hug.
I hope that this helps you ~ gentle hugs sent your way. You have got a lot on your plate with 3 little ones under age 5 at home to care for.

I have actually sent my kids, to school, in PJ's. Well, more when it was preschool, than elementary, but even that has happened, even if just the shirt not the bottoms or vice versa. ((mine are 10, 8, 6))
