How to get it all done when you're a Mom on the run.....

Do you ever feel overwhelmed??  Okay, okay stop laughing.  I knew it was a silly question when I asked it, but I also knew you needed a laugh today.  The truth is from the minute we saw the positive on the pregnancy test, we began to feel overwhelmed.  You may have asked:
 "Am I ready for this?"
"Will I be a good mom?"
"How will we afford a baby?"
"Where will we put the baby?"  
"What will happen to my body?" 
"Will I ever get to spend time with my husband again?"  
     And then a few months later the baby arrives and all of those questions are answered.  If you are like me you probably replaced those questions with new ones like:
"What did I do with all of my spare time before we had the baby?"
"Why is she changing so fast?"
"How many diapers do I have to change today?"
"When was the last time I ate, slept or had a shower?"
"Will I ever get to spend time with my husband again?"
     (Yes, I know I asked the last question twice, but I really like my husband). The truth is after having a baby, time seems to speed up and it becomes harder and harder to feel like you are getting everything done in a day.  You may not have big plans, but going to the grocery store or visiting Grandma, can sometimes take all of the energy you have to spend.  Keeping that in mind, I have decided to help make your life a little easier with this month's prize basket.  I have put together a few things to make those outings not so stressful.  How would you like a "basket" a.k.a cooler filled with ice packs, a hand pump, nursing pads, nursing cream, sunscreen for baby and information about our next infant feeding classes?  I thought you might!
