Kryptonite found in Serbian Mine - WTF?
Well, almost kryptonite.
It seems a new mineral has been discovered that almost matches the composition of kryptonite.
Scientists have discovered a new mineral that matches the composition of kryptonite, the mythical rock that could sap Superman’s strength in comic books.
The rock — named jadarite — was discovered in a mine in Jadar, Serbia, by the Rio Tinto company and identified by London’s Natural History Museum.
If kryptonite exists, maybe one day we’ll find Superman exists too? ![]()

Because kids get sick a lot
We all know babies, toddlers, and children get sick a lot.
We also know it always happens at the most inopportune moment.
How about kids who have a tendency to throw up when they get sick? It can get tricky to clean up the mess.
Wouldn’t it be nice if your child knew where he/she should “make the mess”?
Well, a mom has created the Sick Bear bowl and the gals of 5 Minutes for Mom are giving one away!
It would be great if I could win one! ![]()

All Moms Go to Heaven - Ten Reasons Why
The gals over at Crazy Hip Blog Mamas asked for ten reasons why all moms go to heaven. All moms go to heaven also happens to be a mommy’s clothing site.
Here, my ten reasons:
- We put up with a lot of whining, just like God.
- We pray everyday-it doesn’t matter that we’re praying for the kids to be quiet, it’s still prayer!
- We are often “blessed” – by our babies’ pee, but still blessed.
- We teach our children everyday; just call us prophets!
- We can feed an entire household with one pack of mac & cheese and some hot dogs (sound familiar?).
- We cater to many at one time, some call it multitasking, but for moms, it’s just life.
- We experience a miracle with every pregnancy/birth.
- We are naturally providers of nourishment.
- We too would die for our children.
- We give life.
Of course, I’ve probably commited all kinds of blasphemy now and might have ruined my chances. Let’s hope God has a sense of humor!

New House Update, not really much of an update..
The house is officialy ours, but we haven’t even made it over there yet!
After our closing on Wednesday afternoon, we went and did some comparison shopping for washers/dryers.
We didn’t get to stop by the house yesterday either, since we were both at work all day.
So, although we have a new house, we haven’t even been able to enjoy it thus far.
I’m hoping to go by today and we’re starting the move this weekend, but still, it kinda sucks when you think about it.
The next few weeks promise to be busy ones…
Oh! And we still haven’t done our taxes! I tell ya, it just never ends.

Happy New House to Me!
This afternoon is the closing for our new house! I’m very much excited and am ready to do some shopping.
If all goes well, we should be able to move out of the parents’ and into our new home this weekend.
Needless to say, this weekend will be a busy one.
Yet, somehow, I need to fit squeeze doing our taxes in there somewhere.
I know, I know. We are VERY late on doing our taxes this year, but it has been a busy last 4 months.
Wish me luck!
