Here Comes the Sun ($250 giftcard giveaway!)





Capri-Sun Sunrise is Making Every Day Better for moms and kids -- and they're going to make one lucky reader's day even better with a $250 VISA gift card! Read on to find out how to enter.


Is it morning already? Mornings are not my strong suit. My kids are up with the sun, but I stay in bed until I absolutely have to get up. I jump out of bed between 7:15 and 7:20, get dressed, get The Pea up and dressed, get breakfast, pack everyone's lunch, and walk The Pea to school. We have to be out the door by 8:00AM, so it's all a rush rush rush! My morning routine is like a finely-tuned precision instrument: throw a cog in it (like discovering we've run out of juice or realizing that The Pea didn't do her homework the night before), and everything falls apart.

So I gladly agreed to try and review Capri-Sun's great new option for streamlining my kids' breakfast: Sunrise, a new breakfast juice drink .

I like to put in earplugs on the weekends because everyone wants to mow their lawns EARLY in the morning which is the only time one gets to sleep in.

Be consistant and stick to a morning routine.

My morning is a mess. Alarm goes off and I snooze. Repeat. Repeat again. I can't imagine how I'll be able to do this with the addition of a little one. Will I ever get to work again?

I have my alarm clock in front of the bed so I have to get out to shut it off and go straight in the shower, every day....I am ready and out within 30 minutes.

Like clockwork.

I've got the shower and makeup down to 5 minutes each. Drive thru Starbucks and I'm at work. Fast and efficient.

a schedule must be in place and then adhered to in order for the morning to be an efficient one!

Picking out clothes the night before is a must do for a smooth running morning. Also, cooking a breakfast filled with mouth savory aroma is the only way I can get the little ones out of bed, cinnamon rolls, bacon, maple syrup, anything that stimulates there senses, gets them out of bed much easier!

We do as much as we can the evening before (pack lunches, lay out clothing, etc.)

One thing that worked well for me when my kids were younger was to plan breakfast the night before and feed them what they liked to eat - green eggs and ham, pizza, fried rice, leftover chicken, whatever. A much better way to start the day off right than insisting they had to eat something they didn't want.

Make sure the backpacks are packed the night before and clothes are ready to go. A lost shoe or book in the morning can throw the whole day off.

My mornings are a time for me to relax. I get dressed, eat, than I sit on my porch, and read a book. Than I start getting ready for work. Thanks.

The Devil's in the details. Get as much done the night before, clothing laid out. Be firm but fair - allow for some flexibility but get tough if it's excessive. Physically remove them from their beds if necessary to get them moving.

The kids are out of the house, so my morning routine is a cup of coffee and the newspaper. Thanks for this offer.

Rise and shine, get a cup of coffee, eat some breakfast, take a shower, shave and head out for the day! Simple but effective.

Lynn H on July 8, 2009 at 3:34 AM said...

My morning routine is to get my coffee, take a shower and then have breakfast

Oneangel on July 8, 2009 at 6:52 AM said...

i live in an apartment complex and with all the remodeling going on,,it is not easy to get a full nights sleep. they tend to want to start at 7 am, i am usually up till 2am.
so I get a rude awakening each morning and end up taking a nap later

Unknown on July 8, 2009 at 9:47 AM said...

My mornings are hectic! I try to get up at least 30 minutes before everyone else so I can have at least a "moment of silence" before the day begins!

Unknown on July 8, 2009 at 10:23 AM said...

Wake up with a cat that thinks your his personal "Rock Star". Great days are here.

Miranda Ward on July 8, 2009 at 11:57 AM said...

Make sure u plan outfits the night before

jzagarjr on July 8, 2009 at 12:18 PM said...

After I get up, I get dressed, feed the cats, and have something to eat.

Erica C. on July 8, 2009 at 12:57 PM said...

everyone gets up, eats breakfast, gets dressed, grabs the already made lunches, and gets out the door!

After I wake up, I will stay in bed and try to actually wake up. Then I will have some breakfast. Usually after that, I'll take a shower.

I relax as I am readying for the day! Never panic or be anxious = just breathe slowly and things will go smooth!
