After things settle down (in the middle of the move from hell), I will
talk
to DH about it, at least to see where he is. He's been reminicing about
the
girls being newborns, so I'm not sure if that's a sign that he would like
another or not.
I know, every scenario of when to have another has its drawbacks. If I
wait
too long, I feel like there will be too big of an age gap, and I'll be
back
into having more of an adult life (job possibly, etc) that I won't want to
interrupt that again. OTOH, if they are close in age, then things will be
total chaos.

Very true! I have also been thinking about an older infant/young toddler.
