This post is Sponsored by P&G but my opinions are 100% my own!

I know that Mother’s Day is over but shouldn’t we always be thanking our mother’s?  Seriously I know my dad did a lot by going to work everyday and making money for our family.  But seriously my mother is the one who kept it all together.  Having money to use and then making sure we have everything we need is a much harder job, I think.  Now that I am a mother I can appreciate what my mom did for me so much more.

So why not Pamper yourself and ease the daily grind for your family and home this as if it was still Mother’s Day and beyond with bright ideas from P&G’s Have You Tried This Yet? program. As a mother, you wear many hats! Be sure to pencil in some much needed “R & R” in your growing to-do list!

Mommy, Mommy!: How to Bring Back “Me Time” into Your Everyday

• Treat yourself to a new summer dress or that colorful purse you’ve been eyeing at the mall!
• Why go to the spa when you can bring the spa home to you? Stock your at-home salon with products like:
  Olay® Smooth Finish Facial Hair Removal Duo: this innovative, gentle 2-step system gives you smooth, visibly hair-free skin.
  Head & Shoulders® Damage Rescue Shampoo and Conditioner: Together, these high-performing products condition to nourish damaged hair and help relieve dry scalp.
• Break the rules! Why stop at chapter 10? Stay up late and read your new page-turner cover to cover.
• Revamp your beauty routine with COVERGIRL + Olay® Tone Rehab™ 2-in-1 Foundation. With just one pump, it instantly covers discolorations, lines and wrinkles. One bottle hydrates to help improve skin tone over time!
• Every morning, pencil in some time to simply relax. That’s right! Give yourself 30 minutes right before bed or after dinner to do absolutely nothing but relax and regroup.

Mother’s Day wouldn’t be as special without with your family! Create new memories with these fun ideas.

La Familia: Making the Most Out of Family Time

• On a hot day, get the family together and create your very own family ice cream flavor! Have each family member choose a component of the ice cream (i.e. sprinkles, chopped up cookies, chocolate sauce, etc.) and enjoy!
• Take an every day activity, like brushing your teeth, and make it a family affair for you and the kids to brush your teeth together! Don’t forget to use the following oral care products when brushing your pearly whites:
  Crest® 3D White Glamorous White Toothpaste: Say cheese everyone! This product removes 80% of surface stains
  Oral-B® Glide White Radiant Mint Floss Picks: Flossing just got easier! This innovative product slides up to 50% more easily in tight spaces vs. the leading floss pick.
• Create a new family tradition! Have the kids come up with ideas and vote on a winner. It will be something that is unique to your family that can be passed on from generation to generation.
• Family videos are a great wait to capture new memories and revisit the old. Put a spin on your home videos and conduct family interviews. What questions will you ask?
