2 in 1 Mama Time

“This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and Universal Pictures Home Entertainment, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #ThePitchesatWMT http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV”

IMG_7327Let’s face it, once you become a mom, me time in its original form is pretty much out the window. I am honestly only really alone for a 10 minute shower, or occasionally if I run an errand on my lunch break. That doesn’t leave much “mama time”. I am thankful for this in so many ways, because my favorite thing to do is spend time with my husband and little baby girl. Yesterday, I gave a few ideas for what to put in a new mom care package, and today, I am showing a practical example of how to incorporate your “mama time” into your day even when it includes your man and your baby.

 

I know you’re probably thinking, how can I have “mama time” with other people? Well, I am encouraging you to think outside the box in order to incorporate this into your week. I have learned that you have to be extremely flexible having a child (or even a husband lol). So, here is a Practical Example of a 2 in 1 Mama Time in your day:

Pitch Perfect 2 Blu-Ray/Soundtrack Combo

 

Step 1: Head to Walmart to grab the exclusive Pitch Perfect 2 Blu-Ray/Soundtrack combo pack. Soundtrack includes some of your favorite songs from Pitch Perfect and Pitch Perfect 2 (while supplies last)

 

Hint: I would grab some yummy snacks to enjoy as well.

Step 2: Enjoy 2 in 1 Mama Time by:

 

Singing in the Shower

Download the soundtrack to your phone or Bluetooth device and crank up your soundtrack complete with your favorite songs from Pitch Perfect and Pitch Perfect 2. Bust it out in the shower and enjoy those 10 minutes.

 

Mama’s Movie Pick

Remember, the snacks are important, so don’t forget to grab those at Walmart when you are picking up your Pitch Perfect 2 Blu-Ray/Soundtrack Combo pack. Designate a night in your week just for mama time and enjoy a movie of your choice and yummy snacks with your Hubby. You can wait until your baby goes to sleep, or if they are calm enough, have them sit with you (this is easy for us now because Brooke loves to sit in our lap and play with her toys, but I know it won’t be that easy for long).

This is just one idea of how to incorporate “mama time” into your week. The key, like I mentioned, is to think outside the box. Magazines and toe nail painting during nap time, at home movie nights, shopping on your lunch break, and singing in the shower are just a few ideas!

 

What out of the box ideas do you have for “mama time”?

  • Life with you is certainly never boring! ❤️

Through every hard season and every joy, you’ve been right by my side.

I’m so thankful for the man and husband you are. You encourage me, push me, lead me and always serve our family. 

You are an amazing example of Christ’s love to us and I’m incredibly proud to call you mine.

You’re my very best friend and doing life with you is so fun. You always bring the smiles and the laughter.

I love the life we’ve built and I can’t wait to experience the rest of this life with you. I love you so much, Happy 15th Anniversary @kevinclarke15!
  • The older I get, the more I realize wellness doesn’t have to mean a complicated routine. 🤍#BarleansPartner

I’m focusing on simple habits that actually fit into my everyday life — morning walks, staying hydrated, and adding @Barleans Seriously Delicious Omega-3 Fish Oil into my routine.

I love that it’s a liquid format, tastes great, and feels like an easy swap instead of adding another pill to my day. ✨

You can find Barlean’s at Walmart!🛒

  • Back-to-school shopping for a junior high girl is about so much more than checking supplies off a list. ✏️🎒✨ #pOpshelfPartner

As moms, we know it’s about helping our kids feel prepared, confident, and excited for a new school year.

Brooke and I found so many cute, affordable back-to-school finds at @popshelf — from school supplies and organization must-haves to accessories and fun extras.

I love that we could find everything in one stop, and at prices that let her pick things that fit her personality without blowing the budget. 🤍 Those little details really do make the first day feel a little more exciting.

Visit your local #pOpshelf for affordable, stylish finds that help your kids feel ready for a fresh start! 📚✨

  • Save or splurge? 👀

I finally compared the viral Amazon shorts to my Vuori favorites... and here’s my take. 💕

The Amazon pair is a great budget-friendly option (just make sure to size up!), but when it comes to comfort, Vuori still takes the win for me.

If you’ve been debating between the two, this side-by-side comparison should make the decision a whole lot easier.

Comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links! 🎀 And tell me... are you team save or team splurge? 👇🏼
