Q&A WITH ME: IS THERE SOMETHING COOKING IN THE OVEN?
Last week I asked my readers to ask me any questions that were on their mind. I got a few really good questions, so I am going to take this week and answer them. I like doing this every once-in-awhile because some of the questions actually require me to get off of my lazy bum and take some pictures. (Because I am a visual person, and I like to see what I’m reading sometimes.)
This question comes to me from Mommy Saves A Lot. She wanted to know:
Hi Shynea, Here’s my question/s….What is it exactly, that you do in your job? Do you want more children? What does your hubby do for a living? Alright..i’m done..LOL.
I actually have grown quite fond of my job. I spend all day typing on a computer, interacting one-on-one with customers via chat for a major company. Due to my privacy, as well as the company’s, I’m not going to reveal the name of who they are. I just have to say that EVERYONE who reads this blog has used their products, or have their products, in their home right now. *wink wink* Sorry for the vagueness.
The hubs is currently working as well and attending school full time. I am BEYOND excited for him and I have been on his back non-stop to do good in school. (That is totally the nerd in me coming out. I LOVE anything that has to do with school, homework, tests, papers, etc…)
I do want more children. Although having a big family is not what I wanted when I was younger, I see myself being happiest now by being a mom of many. I have to say that right now, I would only be comfortable having one or two more. I feel as if six is a nice, round, even number. What is so exciting for my husband and I is that we are well on our way to number six because I am expecting number five right now. (Awww, you heard it first here before I announce it anywhere else. I am expecting another little bambino in 2010.)
This question was too fun to answer. Stay tuned for tomorrow’s question as I give y’all a visual tour of my kitchen. (Believe me, it’s nothing to ooohhh and aaahhh about.)

OMG CONGRATS!!!! SO EXCITED FOR YOU!!! What awesome news, and a fun way to announce it!
Dear Ali,
Thank you so much for the congrats. I had no idea how I was going to announce it on my website until last week. The question came, so I was like “this is the PERFECT” opportunity.
Take care,
Shynea
Congratulations Shynea! I wish I was brave enough to have another little one soon…right now though I feel like I’m still getting the hang of living on a tight budget, and I’m pretty stressed about money. I give you a lot of credit – you’ve got it down to a science! I never saw myself with a big family either, but after having my baby boy I would love to have more! Kids are just amazing! I am the oldest of five
Dear Jennifer,
Thank you for the congratulations. I am always learning, and relearning how to live on a budget. It has been something that I have been doing for so long that sometimes I feel as if I could do this in my sleep. Money is a big stresser for me as well, but my husband and I try our hardest not to let it get to us. Babies are such a blessing. As a mom of all boys they love so differently but so hard.
Take care,
Shynea
Congratulations!!!!! I’m so excited and happy for you and your husband!
Dear StickySweetMom,

Oh my God! Congrats! Im so happy for you! GIRL, GIRL!
Dear Kenesha,
I’m trying to get over the initial shock. You would think that after four I wouldn’t be shocked anymore. lol I’m happy because I have a feeling that this is going to be my little girl.
Take care,
Shynea
Wow, congrats on the baby. I’m so happy for you. Please blog about stuff with your pregnancy every now and then to keep us updated. We love you.
Dear Zion,
I will definitely be a blogging fool with this pregnancy because this is definitely going to be the last baby that I birth. (I do want to adopt/foster in the next 5-10 years though.) I will post it all. Promise. Thank you for the congratulations! I love you all as well.
Take care,
Shynea
I’m with Zion…you made the announcment, now I wanna be nosey!
Congrats, lady! Number five, huh? Did I mention you’re my shero?
Dear Tara,
I won’t give you the chance to be nosey because I am going to tell it all anyways.
Awww, I’m someone’s shero. lol I really shouldn’t be. I am a beast in the morning. 
Number five is the charmed one for me because it is the last one as well. Thank you SO much for the congratulations.
Take care,
Shynea
Awe, congrats Shynea!!! I am so happy that life is going how you would like it to. No one deserves this happiness more than you!!
Dear Priscilla,
Thank you for the congrats! This was a surprise, but I have a feeling that this will be my little girl. My husband and I already have names picked out.
Take care,
Shynea
Congrats on the new little one.
More power to you girl. How do you keep up the energy? I have three and the youngest is 2 and he soaks up what energy I have left.
Congratulations! I feel so out of the loop.
Shynea I want to say C O N G R A T S !!!!! This is such a blessing. I hope it is a little girl!
How exciting! Congrats!
Congratulations!!!!!! I am so happy for you. This is just so wonderful
