Penélope Cruz is on the cover of Allure magazine's January issue. During a recent interview with the publication, the actress opens up about motherhood.

Cruz got married to her husband, Spanish actor Javier Bardem, back in 2010, and gave birth to their son Leo in 2011. The couple then welcomed their daughter Luna, in July this year.

"[Breastfeeding] is addictive," the brunette beauty admits. "It's hard when the day comes when you have to stop."

The actress reveals that she plans to breastfeed her baby daughter, who is 6-months-old now, until she is at least 13 months old. "I was breastfeeding my son [for] 13 months, and I plan to do the same with my daughter," says the actress.

Cruz also adds that she is not concerned with diet -- at least for now. "I'm supposed to get extra calories because [when] breastfeeding you burn, like, an extra 500 a day," she says.

In addition, the 39-year-old expresses her happiness of being a mother and a wife, saying that she is currently living her long-life dream. "I always knew I wanted a family because of the way I grew up," says Cruz. "Family has always been the most important thing."

"In my house every Sunday, everybody was cleaning the house," she says, recalling her childhood. "There was always music and everybody was dancing, sometimes naked, around the house. Not hippie, but every free."

The mother of two looks stunning on the cover as she confidently flaunts her flawless freckles on her glowing tanned skin.
