Thanks for the perspective! You’re right, I’m sure it’s not AS overwhelming once you’re used to having more kids. You sound like a very wise mother! 🙂

A girl, two boys, then another girl. I doubt we’re done though. I just wanted to note that it was totally normal for you to feel exhausted by your experience with 4 kids. You only have one normally so suddenly having 4 is very taxing. What you need to remember though is that your brother and his wife didn’t wake up one day with 4 kids. They had them one at a time, got used to that and then had another. They gradually built their parenting skills and patience. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither was their family. 🙂

I think secretly, we all hope for that 🙂

Twins would be my preference ;), but I’m pretty sure my husband would have a heart attack if we had two babies at once LOL!

Lucky family! I”m sure whatever you have, it’ll be a perfect addition. And who knows, maybe you’ll have twins??? 1 girl, 1 boy?

And we’re thinking of adding another. My preference…not really sure this time. But my husband and I both wanted a girl first, then a boy.

As much as I would love a million more of my baby boys, the thought that I may never get the baby girl I’ve always dreamed of makes me sad. We have always wanted three, and joke around about the possibility of a fourth if we still don’t have a girl…. We are just crossing our fingers for a “iantomasi” family-2boys then the girl!!!

We too have a prayer to ward off the evil eye. I have yet to learn it though, as it requires a phone call to Nonna on Christmas eve at midnight….the only day you are allowed to share 🙂
