Are you a resolution maker? Someone who vows to do better in the New Year? Even if it’s continuous throughout the entire year I think most of us resolve to improve on what we are already doing. I personally know there are always things I can be working on in my life. I’d like to share a few of mine with you.
Make sure I have daily devotions, if I can’t do them in the mornings then at least sometime throughout the day
-It’s very important for me to have time with God and to make Him more of a priority this year.
Take time for me. As a mom who puts herself on the back burner {can you relate?}, I am promising myself to work less, get more sleep, drink more water, eat healthier, and, dare I say it, even pamper myself once and a while.
Be the best mom I can be. Having more silly moments with the girls, creating and maintaining a close circle of healthy, supportive, fun, good friends for them to play with, and also making sure they are healthy inside and out as well.
Which brings me to mention Trop50. Baby C has never took to the bottle, unfortunately when I was nursing hubby did not get to help feed her, and I made sure I was always somewhat close-by in case she needed to be fed. She never took formula and more importantly when I weaned her she did not want to have anything to do with cow’s milk. We tried everything, bottle, sippy cup, and even medicine dropper, she just wasn’t going for it. Because Calcium is such an important vitamin we consulted with our pediatrician and he suggested other ways for her to get the nutrients she needed. One way was to introduce Calcium enriched orange juice (among other ways).
{The Trop50 version below is not the Calcium, Vitamin-D version they also sell.}
That’s where Trop50 comes in. Tropicana is a well-known brand that produces a great line of juice beverages and have recently created Trop50, the juice beverage that offers 50% less sugar, and 50% less calories with no artificial sweeteners. Which, for a mom who is trying to make sure their child gets enough Calcium, but not overdo the sugar intake, is perfect. I am happy with this new line that I can easily purchase in my local grocery store and that helps me accomplish part of one of my resolutions for 2012.

We definitely need to try this! Trinity and I despise milk–and we are looking for more healthy ways to get calcium in our diets!
That is great! If she won’t take any kind of milk –flavored or not– this is definitely a great way to get it.
(Tiny, insignificant sidenote: Calcium is a mineral, but absolutely vital in the daily diet.)
