As you may know, sleep is precious to Moms. Being a Mom {and Dad!} is busy and fun, but it can also be exhausting. I think back on those first few months with my twins and how I was getting 2-3 hours of sleep at night and I’m not quite sure how I got through it. Then, when they finally started sleeping through the night, they were still waking up or getting up early because they had leaked through their diapers. When we made the switch to Baby Dry, which offers up to 12 hours of overnight protection thanks to their “Ultra Absorb” core, my girls weren’t waking up with a leaky diaper anymore! Hurrah for sleep!
Since I know how important sleep is when you’re a mom, I was so excited to have the opportunity to give the “gift of sleep” to a friend who needed it. When I heard about this great opportunity thanks to Pampers, I immediately thought of my good friend Emily of Our Knight Life. Social media is wonderful and I’ve been so lucky to call Emily a friend for over three years now. Emily has two adorable children – a 4 year old and a 10 month old. Emily’s 10 month old isn’t sleeping through the night yet. She exclusively breastfeeds him, plus with a diagnosis of FPIES which means he isn’t on any solid food yet, it’s so important to continue feeding him when he wants it. But I know she is exhausted {her husband also is gone for months at a time due to deployments!} and I only wish that I lived closer to her so I could come over and hang out so she could get a much needed nap!
I knew I wanted to get some items for Emily’s basket that would give her a chance to relax and pamper herself. It includes:
– Loving Touch Gift Set by basq which includes things like Dream Mist, Calming Oil and Body Butter. It’s products that both Emily and Baby D can enjoy and will hopefully promote great sleep!
– Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate for those late nights! It has a replenishing elixir of pure essential oils distilled botanicals to visibly restore the appearance of skin by morning.
– Happy Mama Spray is made of pure essential oils and flower essences. Just spray, inhale and happiness! I actually saw Emily say she received a sample a few weeks ago and loved it so I wanted to get her a full size bottle!
– basq Lavender Soy Candle is perfect to sooth and calm the stress away. I almost didn’t want to give it away to Emily – it just smelled so good!
– $50 Gift Certificate to a local spa she has visited before – I hope she can enjoy herself!
– Pampers Baby Dry featuring 12 hour protection – Perfect for Baby D!
Since I don’t live near Emily, I had to ship all of this to her and eagerly wait for her to let me know she received it! This was one of the most fun things I have been able to do and I was so happy to give it to someone who truly deserved it! With our time difference, I woke up this morning to tweets, instagram pictures and texts from Emily loving the “gift of sleep” thanks to Pampers!
