When the twins were born, I had a big reality check. I have two hands, two arms, and with my single babies, I always had a hand free. This was not the case with the twins. Saving my sanity as a mom was tricky while feeling overwhelmed. Thanks to Huggies Snug N Dry, I get to share with you my favorite sanity saver for moms. You probably have one in your local community!

Motherhood is challenging for any of us, no matter how many children you have. Two babies wanting to eat at the same time, be held at the same time, rocked at the same time wore me out. Of course there are sweet moments, but there is not often a break to recharge.

Focusing on the fun moments and simple ways to recharge keep me energized to be the best mom I can be.

It was hard, but focusing on family meant that I needed to find balance as a mom in order to be the best mom for my 4 kids that I could.

I was used to hosting playdates, getting the house clean and laundry done all within a week, but with two babies at one time success as a mom literally meant making sure everyone was alive and fed.

Balance was something I had to work at moment to moment.

When the twins were 6 months old, we moved across the country. We are military, so we have to learn all about a new neighborhood every three years. Finding local programs that are great for the kids and easy for me as a mom to get to is key.

No matter where we move, the local library is always a first-stop for the kids and me. It is my simple sanity saver for moms. That was the case when we got settled in California. Once my oldest started school, my preschooler wanted some time to be around kids her own age.
