Summer. Time to put up your feet and relax in a hammock. Screech! (Record scratch). You still have a job to do, kids to rush to camp or summer programs, and those same errands to run. It's a fun time of year, but can sometimes be just as busy as any other time.
I definitely need my morning cup of coffee with creamer such as International Delight Simply Pure.
Here are a few more tips to help you start your day off on the right foot.
Easy Summer Morning Routine Tips for Busy Moms
*Start the night before by getting a good nights sleep. This will start your morning off on the right.
*Pack your summer tote the night before. Heading to the lake with the kids? Pack your sunscreen, snacks, mosquito repellent, sunglasses, etc. the night before so that you don't have to go looking for all of this right before you head out the door. Are your kids going to summer camp in the morning? Make sure their duffel bags are packed and ready to go too.
*Wake up a bit early earlier than everyone else. I love this time. The house is quiet and I am able to straighten up the home before anyone is awake. This is when I make up my bed, straighten couch pillows etc.
*Eat a good healthy breakfast. You need energy to fuel your busy day of chasing the kids around the house don't you? My favorite is a bowl of greek yogurt and granola. Just make sure you eat something. No arguments here mmkay?
*I always like to take a few moments of me time in the morning by fixing a quick cup of coffee. For me, every good morning begins with a delicious cup of coffee, even in the summer. A good cup of Joe just makes me smile!
I enjoy using International Delight Simply Pure. It's made with real milk, cream, and sugar. Plus, it comes in flavors that I love. Hazelnut, Vanilla, and Caramel.
*Lastly, take a few moments to meditate, pray, read a daily devotional or some kind of daily affirmations. It'll help you start your day in the right mindset.

Have you tried International Delight Simply Pure yet? How do you start your morning?
I haven't tried ID Simply Pure yet. I'm all about getting my cup of joe & quite before the kids are up!
ReplyDeleteMe too Theresa! I like the peace and quiet.
Deletecoffee makes me smile too...I have coffee almost every morning and the vanilla & hazelnut flavored creamers are my faves. I've never tried this brand before but I will now that I've read this review, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a girl after my own heart! ;)
DeleteI've left coffee behind... for now... but I do love getting up a little early and enjoying the quiet time with tea!
ReplyDeleteI made it to 44 years old with no kids. I have a little fur baby. Shih Tzu named Blanchie and I get up every morning at 8 am to walk him before work. Then I get him cleaned and fed. Then off to buy my hot cocoa and get ready to do my driving tours around Hollywood. I can't complain.
ReplyDeleteLove 'International Delights.' You're so right we have to take time for us and meditate and pray before we start our day. We must start on a good positive foot everyday.
ReplyDeleteI love International Delight creamers! They take my coffee (which I NEED) to the next level. You also have great tips. Getting up before my son to get ready for the day has always been helpful for me.
ReplyDeleteEstablishing a morning routine is so important. I'm not a big coffee drinker, but I'm sure to have my tea every morning!
ReplyDeleteLiveLifeWell,

Great tips! A good night's rest and breakfast are so important for a cranky-free mama. I also like having bags and things prepped the night before so that we can grab and go.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a coffee drinker but my mom is. She would probably love those flavored creamers! I agree with your tips on making it a smooth morning! By the way, I need to know where you got that mug!! 😍
ReplyDeleteGreat tips. I've fallen off the prayer wagon, but it is definitely a must. I definitely agree with preparing things the night before. Saves so much time.
ReplyDeleteWe start summer on Monday! I am so nervous because this will be my first summer in about 10 years that I've had a full time job. And I work from home. Routine will be everything!
ReplyDeleteGetting up before everyone else is key for me! I love enjoying my cofee when it's quiet - and while the coffee is hot! Great tips! #client
ReplyDeleteThat looks good. I will have to try it, on my next grocery store trip!
ReplyDeleteSimply Pure is one of my favorites. Thank you for sharing this post. It's just what I needed to remind me to carve out a little time for me in the morning.
ReplyDeleteI don't drink coffee so I've never tried these, but I bet they would be good in teas too. Getting up early is definetly helping me this summer. It's nice to have some time to myself before my kids get up.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried this brand yet, but will be on the lookout for it this weekend. I love my morning cup of java - creamer with no sugar. #ProductReviewParty
ReplyDeleteGreat tips to make a morning routine run a bit smoother. I'm not a huge coffee drinker, but if I have some, it has to have some flavored creamer in the mix, caramel is my fave :)
ReplyDeleteI have to have coffee every single day. I love International Delight creamers, but I haven't tried the Pure variety yet. I need to check it out. #ProductReviewParty
ReplyDeleteThese are great tips and good for a healthy lifestyle,specially it is good to have some time for meditation/pray as that will give a good start for the day!
ReplyDeleteNice pictures too...

I haven't tried these kinds. But I no longer drink coffee. #ProductReviewParty
ReplyDeleteI use International Delight (Sweet Cream), but I haven't tried the Simply Pure yet. I'm not too crazy about those flavors (I know, I know, they're the go-to tastes. haha), but I like that it has natural ingredients.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried these ID's yet, sound yummy though. #ProductReviewParty #112
ReplyDeleteGreat tips! I have coffee every single morning, especially since I recently purchased my first coffee maker lol
