Congrats! I hope your kids can tolerate hand me downs, and that you have a good mix of sexes to avoid fights. :-)

What I was just pointing out is that the old school "blue collar Catholic" families simply can't afford to support large families anymore. Lower Middle Class folks of ANY religious/racial stripe can't do more than 1-2 kids in places like NY or NJ.
