Lulu used to have a tracksuit covered in old paint that she wore when schlepping. If she had to go out she'd put her hair in a bandana and pretend she was renovating. That's smart.
We all get dressed. When we've got things to do, places to go, people to see etc we (as in kids and I - DH pulls on his exercise gear the minute he's out of bed every morning) get dressed pretty much as soon as we're up and atom. But on a quiet day at home, I'm happy for us to laze around for a bit longer in our pjs before getting dressed.
When the babies were little, no, I didn't get dressed everyday.
Now, I do. We go out, we have neighbours the girls play with and it takes long enough to get them ready to leave the house as it is without having to add getting me dressed as well! LOL
I don't shower in the morning though, can't get one in peace, so I have to wait until they are all asleep.
I showere at night after the kids go to bed, unless for ome reason I'm too tired. I only get properly dressed if I'm going out. If I'm just taking kids to school, or running to the shops for bread, then its trackies.
Today I was flat out spring cleaning, so the only thing i changed was my pj shorts into normal shorts & threw on a jumper at about 2 to check the mail & grab bread. No bra
Tomorrow will probably be much the same.
When my house is in order, I do get up & get dressed, coz it makes me feel like getting my stuff done. When its a mess, it depresses me & I don't get dressed, so I'm not in the mood to sort through the mess
Just depends on the day & how I'm feeling.
Big kids get dressed every day, with school etc. DD3 usually gets UNdressed instead... & stays that way til I sneak a nappy on her in bed...
I get dressed as soon as I get out of bed, otherwise I feel too 'cruisey' and nothing gets done. Plus now DD is in her own bed (WOOHOO! Until #2 arrives... lol) I sleep semi-naked most of the time anyway so it seems silly for me to wake up and get out of bed and put on pjs! Sometimes if I sleep in pyjamas and I feel really lazy I'll have my coffee in my jamas. A 'lazy around the house day' usually involves a singlet and a sarong as a skirt, so if you see me in that, that's my equivalent of a 'pj day.'
I have never, ever spent a whole day in pyjama's. Neither have my children. It is daytime, pyjama's are for bed! Even if we are staying at home all day with no chance of visitors I still get them dressed.

Yes I get dressed every day. So do the kids, even if we are going no where or expeciting anyone. If they didnt, they would have no idea weather its bed time or lunch time
if i can do it before the kids are up, i get to enjoy it. if they wake up first, we do breaky first and then all jump in the shower.
even when i was doing vol firefighting and we had a call out in the middle of the night, i would have to ditch the pjs and put clothes on before running out the door. (some others just rock up in their pjs though
Yes, we get dressed every day. I think I can only think of once I've had my pj's on all day when DD1 was little and I was so tired and having a bad day.
I get dressed everyday too. Like some others, if I'm planning on staying home for the day ill generally just wear trackies, but I'm still dressed! I feel gross if I'm not dressed. DD gets dressed everyday too - even when she's sick!
I love my pjs and will stay in them as long as possible . Pjs and ugg boots, beautiful! I have been known to be wondering around the outside of my house in my pjs and bath robe chasing after my DS till late morning sometimes. With DS I get him dressed after brekky and in fact change his clothes up to 3 times a day because I can't stand any dirt on them. I don't know why I can't apply the same rule to myself, although I generally don't get dirty, just smelly lol. Before DS was born, I used to get dressed to work everyday and even on the weekends I used to put on clothes after a shower and brekky in the mornings. After DS was born, some days I was in pjs all day, only to have a shower and change into a fresh pair of pjs when DF came home from work, lol. The only days I get dressed first thing in the morning now is if I have to go out anywhere.
nope...im a slob.
I sleep naked, so get up in the morning and put on my trackies and a singlet top and bra and undies and thats what i live in. If I go out I 'put some pants on' which involves changing the trackies to cargo pants. and then I get home the very first thing I do is put my trackies back on! without fail. sometimes I'll admit before I have even gotten Spock out of the car (because she is alseep in the carseat 99% of the time)
I have to get dressed. I just feel NQR if I don't and I get really grumpy. Can't stand seeing the kids in their PJs either.
It used to cause problems because it was hard for me to shower in the mornings (DP either sleeping off a late shift or already at work on an early shift). Now I generally have a bath with the girls at night so I can just chuck on some clothes in the morning.
If we are sick we do and we have Jammie Day one day each school holidays and the kids love it, but by about 10am I feel grotty and jump in the shower and get dressed. I love having breaky then jumping in the shower but with the kids I find I have to get up, showered and dressed first or if I miss the getting ready boat I get them organised then get myself done last. Although for me its not really PJ's as most nights I sleep in the buff, so its my dressing gown I lounge around in
On Jammie days the kids always have a bath before bed and get clean pj's, but unless dirty I try and get them to wear the same PJ's 3-4 nights running.
