Starting out!

I'm jumping on the "blog-wagon." I have been reading blogs daily for quite a while now and decided its time I start my own and see how that goes! I have many ideas for what to put into my blog and I will try to post once a week at least. My name is Erica and I am a Christian wife and mom of one with one on the way in a few months. I work part time 2 or 3 days a week just until baby comes and then I will be full time mommy for a couple years. Now that you know a little about me, here is what I am hoping to portray in my blog... Frugality- I want to show simple ways to be frugal because I try very hard to be frugal! Recipes- I am not a great cook or baker by no means but if I find a great recipe I want everyone to know about it! So here is where I would be posting any good recipes and my unprofessional opinion :) Lunch Ideas- My baby boy is only 1.5 yrs so I make lunch for him of course but I want this section to focus on my hubby's lunches(that I am currently hardly packing but need to start) Thrift Finds- This kind of goes along with frugality but I love thrifting and get some great finds that I'd love to share with someone other than my husband who I dot think really cares (even though I save him tons of dough lol). Thrifting is also a great way to help charities but not feel like your money is just gone because you get something back right away ! Parenting- I have A LOT to learn about being a parent but I want to write about this if I learn something new that seems like other young or new moms (and dads) should know too! Christianity- I am trying to raise my boy in a good Christian home with good morals and knowing God's word. I am also a wife who wants to get her husband to heaven as well so if I have any advice I find suitable for my blog, I'll share it! Decorating- I have always wanted to be an interior decorator(not designer I don't think I have the goods for that lol) and so I want to show some neat decorating tips and tricks I find. Spare time- I have a very well behaved baby so when he is playing by himself or when my husband is home, we are often lost for ideas of what to do! So when I find somethin to do in my spare time, I'll let you know ! Cleaning- I feel like I am always cleaning so when I find new tricks to help my cleaning stay clean, I'll let you know! LolAs you can probably tell, this will be quite a learning experience for me and I am hoping that I can help others with some problems that I have and that you may be experiencing as well! Thanks for reading! Be sure to come back again!
