Pre-motherhood my mornings were usually much calmer (unless I snoozed my alarm too much). I woke up, made myself breakfast, packed my lunch, got ready for the day and grabbed a cup of coffee from my building’s coffee maker.
These days, my usual mornings are anything but calm. As a full-time working mom to a two-year-old and ten-month-old, my days are pretty hectic and my mornings start off pretty hastily, too. I often do not get the best quality sleep (surprise, surprise!). I wake up to nurse in the middle of the night anywhere from one to four times. I co-sleep so I share my bed and the little one takes over.   Each morning, I wake up, rush into the shower, and grab a quick breakfast if I’m lucky enough to remember. As for lunch, I usually buy it though I do make an effort to take leftovers if we have any.
Something that has remained a staple of my morning routine is: drinking coffee. It’s one of the first things I do when I wake up. These days, however, I have to warm it up a few times… but that’s neither here nor there.
A little tidbit you might not know is that I also enjoy a cup of coffee at night. It’s popular in the Hispanic and Latino cultures. Ironically, though it energizes me in the mornings, it is also a part of my calming nighttime routine.  
Recently, I’ve also been trying to choose healthier options for my coffee. That’s why I enjoy the new Coffee mate® natural bliss® Plant Based Half & Half Vanilla and Half & Half Unsweetened. My husband is a fan, too! It is all natural, plant-based, and non-dairy, made with real almond milk and coconut cream.  |
Cheers!
