With three 4-year-olds, a Red Bull, and a huge stash of Burt’s Bees tinted lip balm, that’s how WeTV’s Candace Hickey rolls. This mom of triplets, aerobics instructor, and now reality TV star on Texas Multi Mamas juggles more in a day than I do in a week. What does she keep stashed in her bag to keep her going? Take a look.
1. Candace’s “brag book” featuring the triplets
2. Plano Mother’s of Multiples badge. “I’ve been on the board for five years.”
3. Tory Burch cosmetics case. “I got it from WeTV for my birthday.”
4. iTunes gift card for instructing Danceaton at 24 Hour Fitness. “I never thought I would be a fitness teacher, but it’s a blast.”
5. Shout wipes. “My kids are notorious for spilling things.”
6. Clorox hand sanitizer spray. “It’s quick and dries fast.”
7. Almonds. “It’s one of my favorite healthy snacks.”
8. Earbuds and Pen from WeTV.
9. 5-Hour Energy shot. “It serves two purposes: one, to keep up with my triplets and, two, to give me extra energy to teach my aerobics class.”
10. Maybelline Great Lash mascara. “Sometimes the only makeup I have time to put on is mascara.”
11. Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmers. “It’s safe to say it’s my addiction. I love that tingle to them.”
12. Aveda Hand Relief. “It’s another addiction.”
13. Love note and Cubs bracelet from husband Steve. (He’s from Chicago.) “When he leaves me a love note, it starts my day off right. He’s an awesome man.”
14. Toy and sparkly bracelet from kids. “These things always happen to drop in my purse.”
15. Coach wristlet. “It’s my go-to wallet. With my triplets I have to have my hands free.”
16. iPhone. “In purple for TCU, where I graduated with a bachelor and two masters. I was a cheerleader, too.”
