Motherhood is crazy chaotic.

You’re always prepping for the next step. Packing up the diaper bag, preparing snacks and thinking twenty steps ahead. 

You have to get up at six to have the babies ready by eight. Just to get to your appointment by nine that you scheduled so you could be home by noon for their nap. After which they’ll wake up from right after you sit down from cleaning up the house. All because you had a hard day and decided to leave it for future you which you now regret and knew you would then.

Sound like your life?

But how do you keep going if all you’re doing is prepping for the smaller, poopier version of you?

You need some things for yourself, mama!

That is why I have decided to share with you guys a couple things I have to have as a busy mom of twins.

Make sure you follow along to the end where I share with you guys a great deal going on NOW!

Five Must Haves for Busy Mamas

1. A Standard Paper Planner

I may be a smart phone obsessed millennial mama, however, nothing beats sipping on my iced coffee and planning out my week in my planner.

2. Tinted Moisturizer

A busy mama MUST! I am all about killing two birds with one stone. It is a must for looking great and keeping your skin hydrated.

3. A Quality iPhone Case

Odd ball? Yes. But now that I mention it, you’re shaking your head yes aren’t you? I couldn’t count on one hand how many times I have dropped my iPhone while picking up the twins, hopping out of the car, or frantically making them a snack because they scream like they’ve never been fed before each time they’re hungry. Which is always.

4. Grab n Go Snacks

That standard morning timeline I gave you in the beginning of this post? Yeah, did I ever say anything about having time to eat? No. Because I don’t. You are likely in the same boat. So instead of picking off bites of your kids meals and snacks, keep some bars and other grab n go goodies in the house so you can do just that; grab and go.

5. BODYARMOR Sports Drinks

Finally, busy mama’s need hydration! That is where I turn to BODYARMOR Sports Drinks.

I first heard about them through my local mom group. So many of my mom friends swore by BODYARMOR while pregnant and nursing. They all said that it helped with milk production and hydration which we all know is tough while pregnant or nursing. I then had to try it out and I really think the sports drink is one of the reasons I was able to produce as much as I did for the twins. Now as a non-nursing busy mama, they are my go to for a hydration pick me up! So I was really excited when they opened up the offer to work together so that I could share the love with you guys!

BODYARMOR Sports Drinks are made from natural ingredients, which is great since most other popular sports drinks on the market can’t promise the same. Plus they come in a wide variety of flavors. The original BODYARMOR Sports Drinks come in Strawberry Banana, Orange Mango, Lemonade, Fruit Punch, Tropical Punch, Blackout Berry, Mixed Berry, Grape, Pineapple Coconut, Watermelon Strawberry and Knockout Punch. Then BODYARMOR LYTE comes in Peach Mango, Cherry Berry, Orange Citrus, Blueberry Pomegranate. Of all the flavors, Peach Mango and Strawberry Banana are my favorite.
