If so, how are the relationships between kids? Are you done having children?

I kind of do. I have a girl, boy, boy, boy (I just had my youngest three days ago). We are done, but that's more a function of quantity of children. I am happy with four kids!
Relationships are great. My daughter is leader and her brothers do her biding hahaha. She also seems to have a special connection with my third born. They really enjoy spending time together. Of course, our dynamic is about to change, but before the introduction of baby four I've enjoyed girl, boy, boy!

DH has an older sister and younger brother. He used to get along fine with his sister - but she always had to be running the show. We are not really on speaking terms with her now. He says he fought with his brother a lot. They get along fine now but just are not very close. We don't live near each other and only see him a couple times a year.

Honestly I was trying to think of people I know with either of these and I know very few. I feel like sibling dynamic doesn't really matter of gender it's all about personalities/age differences/ect.

@LuLu Mom: I know, me either. I was hoping others would!

@sampron: I'm the girl in the middle of two boys. Sibling relationships are...strained. Were awful when we were little, better when we were all in college, and kind of "eh" now. But there's drug addiction and other craziness involved, so I don't know if that's a great example. Even when we were young, bad parenting dynamics+some very strong personalities had far more to do with it than gender.

@Jess1483: Yes, that it true! I have a sister a couple years older than myself and we were never close growing up and still aren't. Drugs, etc. were involved and it's far from where I am or who I want to be around. Growing up, she never wanted me to follow her around or to play with. I'm hoping we can create good sibling bonds between our kiddos.
