New Mama Survival Kit

I wanted to share a fun gift idea for any mama's to be in your life.
This makes a super fun shower gift that's totally mama focused, because Lord knows things can get a little crazy when those sweet bundles show up and mom's have a tendency to forget the basics for themselves.
Plus you could personalize this a million different ways and it's so encouraging!



These are the notes I attached:

Tide to go: Life is messy. Babies are super messy.

Lifesavers: To save you from one of those days.

Slippers (or comfy socks): To remind you to take time for you. 

Chocolate granola bars: Don't forget to refuel... and eat lots of chocolate :) 

To go mug: So you'll never have to be without your coffee.

Instant coffee: Emergency caffeine fix.

Hair bands: To remind you to stay flexible.

Notepad: Just in case you have a hard time remembering, well... everything! Lists are a wonderful thing :)

Advil: For when all else fails.

Almond Joy: Because sometimes you'll feel like a nut... & that's totally ok! 

Eraser: Because everyone makes mistakes. 

Tissues: To wipe away your tears & babies too. 

Starburst: For a burst of energy!

Sour Patch Kids: Sometimes they're sour, but they're always sweet. 

Mirror: Because you're important too. 

I also included some facewash wipes because it's a great thing to have for the hospital and this really awesome baby journal I found at Target (that I totally wish I had, you know for tracking poops and feedings and all the fun stuff).

Have you ever done any other gifts "kits"?
I know it might be kind of cheesy, but I love them!
Let me know if you have any other ideas :)
