A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Having 3 kids with 3 different colorful characters is interesting! My first born is caring, responsible, sweet and thoughtful. My second born is bold, rambunctious, loud, smart and entertaining.

I was reading the January issue of the Reader’s Digest and a very interesting health article caught my attention. Reading the article made me glad as I found out that my favorite food and foods that I include in my daily diet are anti-cancerous foods. I would like to share the few foods here that…
Baby has been driving me bonkers lately. As usual, she is hyper active and does not seem to get tired a wee bit. She wakes up at 6am and does not nap until around 11:30am when I force her to. She also sleeps late, at around 11ish pm. Lately, she’s also into climbing up table…
