Throughout this whole pregnancy I live, breathe, eat, ...

Have you ever been to IHOP and tried to order something healthy? That's like asking for a miracle to happen! My friend and I were out for brunch this morning and were appalled at what IHOP labeled "healthy." Just because a stack of pancakes is whole grain does not make it healthy! Remember, it's...

I have entered another cool phase of pregnancy (lol, well I'm not sure how many "phases" are that cool but hey, this is).
