    Smile New Minnesota Mommy

    How did you hear about frugal village? I was searching online for frugal recipes and came across some wonderful posts!

    What interests you here? My husband's hours have been severely cut. I've been trying to figure out how to run our home for less on my own and I haven't been doing very well. I hope I can learn from everyone else.

    What will you contribute? A lot I hope... eventually anyway. Once I figure it out!

    Do you know any other members here? Not that I'm aware of...

    How many kids? Ages? I have 2 boys (5 and 2) and another boy due in September.

    Tell us about yourself. You can read more about me at my blog that the forum won't let me post yet I'm on Blogger as smalltownblessings.

    Do you own any pets? 2 small dogs. A Japanese Chin and a Shih-Poo. They're both lump dogs that do absolutely nothing during the day!

    Occupation? Besides mom, wife, and homemaker? I do work some hours at my mom's house helping her out with my special needs nephews.

    Married or single? I've been married 7 years and still so in love

    Interests and hobbies? Cooking, baking, blogging, reading, camping, and watching movies from Netflix.

    Welcome from another Japanese chin lover. Unfortunately my husband doesn't like dogs, but we had a couple of chins when I was a kid and my parents have one now. Can yours bark? Odie learned at the doggie hotel and he can be a real loudmouth, which is a hoot because so many chins don't seem to have a voice.
